Aeon is an enemy in Final Fantasy III. It is a random encounter in the land near the Crystal Tower and, in the Famicom version, in the Saronia Catacombs. In the 3D version, an Aeon can also be encountered in a sidequest to gain the Orichalcum, which may in turn be used to obtain the Ultima Weapon.
Stats[]
Battle[]
Aeon strikes twice per turn with powerful physical attacks and uses Earthquake, which damages the whole party.
Strategy[]
It is best to have jobs, such as Dragoons and their Jump, that can avoid Earthquake and deal solid damage. A high-level party can easily win with any arrangement of jobs.
Etymology[]
The Greek word aeon, also spelled eon, indicates a period of existence or long space of time. It may be translated as "age". In Gnostic lore, the Aeons were emanations of God.
