Baalzephon (Final Fantasy VI)

The Baalzephon is an enemy in Final Fantasy VI. Baalzephon makes a good Rage for Gau, as it casts Blizzaga, a powerful Ice-elemental spell. It provides absorption to six elements at the same time, but he also is able to be KO'd when his MP equals 0.

Battle
They always attack in pairs along with a pair of Shambling Corpse enemies. It uses Frenzy to Berserk targets, which, combined with the Figaro Malt the Shambling Corpses use to inflict the Imp status on party members, can make the enemy party a potent force. By the time the party reaches the Zone Eater's Belly, the Baalzephon's HP is fairly low.

Strategy
Fira and Firaga spells should be used to kill it, as it absorbs all elemental damage besides Fire and Holy. One can also kill it with a few shots of Rasp or Osmose.

AI Script
Attack Turns: 1st Turn: Frenzy (33%) or Nothing (66%)

Etymology
is a Hebrew name which means "lord of the north", and refers both to a god the Hellenes knew as Zeus Kasios, the god of Mount Aqraa on the Syrian shore and associated with thunderbolts, the sea, and a protector of maritime trade, and a place named in the Bible and described as being near Migdol and Pi-hahiroth where the Hebrews (Israelites) were said to have made their Passage of the Red Sea following their exodus from Egypt.
