Nega Elemental is a special monster in Final Fantasy X bred in the Species Conquest section of the Monster Arena after three of each of the Elemental species fiends throughout Spira are captured. It shares its model with the Dark Element.
Stats[]
Battle[]
Nega Elemental absorbs all elements, including Holy, and will counter all physical and special damage attacks with Ultima. It will drain a party member's HP or MP, or cast Reflect on itself and then bounce a variety of strong spells onto the party.
It drops weapons and armor with elemental strikes and eaters, the Lightning versions of these being fixed.
Strategy[]
The best strategies to defeat it are much the same as for the Jumbo Flan: Doublecasting Ultima and using Copycat. In a pinch, Anima can be brought in to use Pain, provided she is strong enough to withstand Ultima. Using Anima, one will need to cast Reflect after summoning her, as Nega Elemental will use Osmose and steal her MP.
Since counterattacks cannot be countered, another possible strategy is to have everyone with weapons with the Magic Counter ability. They will counter Nega Elemental's spells without being hit by Ultima in return. To reduce the damage they take, the party should have high Magic Defence and be buffed with Shell and five casts of Focus.
Etymology[]
elemental is a mythic being described in occult and alchemical works from around the time of the European Renaissance and particularly elaborated in the 16th century works of Paracelsus.
