Ramuh (Final Fantasy V boss)

Ramuh is an optional boss in Final Fantasy V. The player must fight it to obtain him as a summoned monster, but the player must have the summon Ifrit before Ramuh will join. Ramuh can be found as a random enemy in the forest near Istory. Ramuh can also be fought as transformation of Metamorph, this time without elemental modifiers or status immunities.

At the end of the battle Ramuh will have a dialogue session with Ifrit who asks Ramuh to join the party. Ramuh replies that he and Ifrit have never been enemies and proceeds to end the battle. The player obtains the spell in the inventory as an item, and the player needs to use it for it to be listed in summon section.

Battle
As a Lightning-elemental enemy, Ramuh uses Electric Shock, which damages a target, and Lightning, which is more damaging and attacks all targets. He also uses Thundara, a Black Magic spell. Other magic spells include Osmose, which drains a target's MP, the status Mini, and the Blue Magic spell Flash that blinds all party members.

Strategy
A good strategy is to use the Blue Magic spell Death Claw on him, then strike to finish him off.
