Template:Sideicon Giant Rat, also known as Big Rat, is a boss in Final Fantasy III. It is found in the last room of the Nepto Temple, and has stolen a ruby Nepto Eye from the statue of the Nepto Dragon.
Stats
Battle
Giant Rat's bite causes poison which drains HP over time. The party will be in mini form, so the only members able to do major damage are the mages.
Strategy
The player should have plenty of Antidotes on hand. The party should use level three spells, two of which should be enough to take out most of Giant Rat's health, then use two level one spells to kill him.
It is recommended to be above level 10. It would be ideal to have all four characters as mages, so they can all be on the offensive using Fira, Blizzara, and Thundara. The items Bomb Fragment, Zeus's Wrath and Antarctic Wind can also be used.
