Dustia

The Dustia is a Rare Game enemy in the game Final Fantasy XII, found in the Corridor of Sand of the Dalmasca Westersand. It is a stronger version of Oversoul.

Bestiary Entry
Derivation: Oversoul

''Rare variety of oversoul with a particularly evil disposition. This strain, as yet unrecorded in the Camp annals, is hunted in the Dalmasca Westersand.''

Requirements
Dustia appears in the Dalmasca Westersand the Corridor of Sand when at least one party member has less than 10% of their max HP remaining.

Battle
Dustia can be used to bring the player to a very high level just after the Sunstone is obtained. Being an undead, Dustia can be simply defeated with a Phoenix Down. The Book of Orgain loot item it commonly drops sells for a high amount of gil, allowing the player to buy more Phoenix Downs. There is risk involved, as Dustia casts Dark, which may kill the player if they do not defeat Dustia soon enough. This monster is good for speedy leveling because it is offers 1,000+ EXP, 3 LP, valuable drops including the Flame Staff, and is chainable via a glitch where the player zones out before the EXP and LP values appear on screen, allowing the normally rare game enemy to respawn.

For leveling purposes, it is best to use this exploit at the beginning of the game because subsequent characters' levels are determined by and approximately one or two levels higher than Vaan's level.
