Revision as of 21:13, 30 April 2017
Bat (バット, Batto?) is a recurring type of enemy in the Final Fantasy series. In terms of strength bat-type enemies are weak and pose little threat alone, but they often attack in numbers. Their trademark ability is to absorb the HP from their targets with attacks like Drain and Vampire, and using sound-based attacks. Some bat-type enemies also count as undead. Common variations of bat include the Vampire Bat and Poison Bat.
