Chimera (Final Fantasy II)

The Chimera is a boss from Final Fantasy II, and can appear in a group of two to four in its initial encounter. It reappears soon after its defeat as a random encounter.

Strategy
The difficulty of the fight with the Chimera depends largely on how many of them appear. If you're having too hard of a time beating four of them, try reloading your game in hopes that fewer beasts appear. Each Chimera is a powerful creature, with a robust physical attack and biting magical attack called Blaze 7, which hits the whole party. To survive the onslaught, cast Blink and Shell as soon as the fight begins, then Protect soon after. Concentrate all your efforts on one Chimera at a time in order to take them down faster. One character may have to be continuously employed in healing your characters, since a steady pounding by the Chimeras can weaken even the hardiest party.
