[[List of Final Fantasy X Auto-Abilities#Deathproof|Deathproof]] armor is useful here. Like most [[Area Conquest]] monsters, Espada is quite easy if the player has the [[Celestial Weapon]]s. Also, if the player could ever spare a slot to any defensive materials, they should have Auto-Haste and Auto-Phoenix with it if Espada gains upper hand since it will be a time taking battle where the player has to use Phoenix Downs consecutively because of its Blade Shower ability. Having Auto-Haste is actually essential here because it will cut the player's time in casting [[Haste (Stat)|Haste]] here or have either a Haste Bangle or a Soul Bangle for [[Lulu]] if the player is willing to use her in fighting Espada.

Espada is an enemy in Final Fantasy X bred in the Monster Arena by catching at least one of each fiend in Macalania. Unlocking it will get the party 60 Shining Gems. It shares its model with the Epaaj, Machea, and Klikk.

Stats

Battle

Espada has Auto Regen. It counters physical attacks with Hades Claw, which causes Instant Death and Poison. There's a high chance it will use it three times in a row, making it possible for it to wipe out the entire party. Espada has no resistance to Armor Break, and has only 50% resistance to Slow.

Espada drops weapons with Strength +% abilities and armor with Defense +% abilities, Strength +20% and Defense +20% being fixed abilities.

Strategy

Like most Area Conquest monsters, Espada is easy if the player has the Celestial Weapons. Espada has an instant-death counterattack, so Deathproof armor is useful here. Otherwise, it is recommended to use armor with Auto-Haste and Auto-Phoenix, as they will cut down on the number of turns lost reviving downed members and re-casting Haste.

Etymology
