Siegfried (boss)

Siegfried is a boss in Final Fantasy VI. He is fought twice in the game.

First Battle
When fought aboard the Phantom Train, Siegfried opens the battle with eight physical attacks on random targets. However, these attacks will do very little damage, and unless the player enters battle weakened, they are in no danger. With only a hundred HP, almost any attack will dispatch Siegfried in one hit.

Second Battle
In the Coliseum, Siegfried is much more powerful. His normal physical attacks can do a thousand damage a hit, and he can use Metal Cutter to do high damage. He can also Throw weapons and use Hyperdrive - both of these attacks ignore Defense and thus are almost guaranteed to kill the player's character. Perhaps the easiest way to defeat Siegfried is to equip the character with their best weapon, along with a Genji Glove and the Master's Scroll. If the player is lucky, their character will attack, and as they can attack eight times with the previous set-up, they will likely kill Siegfried in one hit.
