Verth Bahamut is a neutral-elemental Eidolon from Final Fantasy Dimensions II. It is an alternate version of Bahamut that can only be equipped by Wrieg. The summon can be purchased in the Babil Tower exchange shop for 10,000 Babil points at the start of the Eureka arc.
Verth Bahamut is a strong signet for Wrieg if obtained the moment it becomes available, as it provides strong boosts in HP and magic, along with other balanced stats. The summon's Master Breath ability is a perfect way to deal heavy damage to strong groups of enemies, as it attacks five times and ignores invincibility stacks. However, the signet's usefulness is eventually outclassed by later signets.
In the original free-to-play versions, Verth Bahamut could only be obtained through the summon draw shop and could be equipped by any party member. Verth Bahamut was an SSS rank signet.
Profile[]
The official description from the free-to-play versions describes Verth Bahamut as the Eidolord that controls the present Spacetime. The summon's appearance is based on Bahamut's appearance from the Super Famicom game Bahamut Lagoon.
Battle[]
Verth Bahamut's special attack is Gigaflare V, which deals heavy non-elemental damage to all enemies. Summoning Verth Bahamut costs 3 bars from the Summon Gauge.

Etymology[]
Bahamut (Arabic بهموت Bahamūt) originated as an enormous whale in ancient pre-Islamic Arabian mythology. Upon Bahamut's back stands a bull with four thousand eyes, ears, noses, mouths, tongues and feet called Kujuta (also spelled "Kuyutha") (compared with the pair of Behemoth and Leviathan). Between each of these is a distance of a 500-year journey. On the back of Kujuta is a mountain of ruby. Atop this mountain is an angel who carries six hells, earth, and seven heavens on its shoulders.
Another version of the Arabic story is that Bahamut is indeed a dragon and he stands on a whale called Liwash.
In modern times, the game Dungeons & Dragons is responsible for reimagining Bahamut as the king of dragons, a benevolent Platinum Dragon; the opposite of the malevolent Tiamat, the five-headed Chromatic Queen of Dragons.
