Template:Sideicon 10,000 Needles? is one of two summon abilities of the Cactuar. It has a rare chance of occurring, but when it is used, it will inflict 9,999 non-elemental damage to all enemies, at the cost of 50 MP. When the Gigantuar is defeated, it uses a version of 10,000 Needles in the form of ten 1000 Needles spells. The normal Cactuar also does this if not killed within seven turns.

Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-

Template:Sideicon It is used exclusively by Cactuar. The attack involves the Cactuar jumping up and spinning in mid-air while spraying Needles in a 360 degree 2 meter radius.

Final Fantasy XIII

Template:Sideicon 10,000 Needles is the enemy ability of Gigantuar, and inflicts around 10,000 damage to one target as well as inflicting Pain, Fog, or Daze.

Final Fantasy XIII-2

Template:Sideicon 10000 Needles is Gigantuar's attack and can hit up to 10,000 damage and can Daze players, but unlike other needle attacks, it doesn't cut through defense, so using a Sentinel can be beneficial and cut down the damage to less than 5,000.

It is possible to reduce the 10,000 Needles to do 0 damage, but it requires the Ethereal Mantel passive ability (which nullifies all physical damage) and will decrease the target time.
