The Neslug is a boss in the Advance and 2014 versions of Final Fantasy VI, fought in the Dragons' Den. This boss is an homage to the Original Creation monster of the same name from Final Fantasy X.
Stats[]
Head
Shell
Battle[]
The head uses a physical attack and Tongue Bath, its special attack that inflicts slow. Because of its maxed out defenses, the shell is impossible to kill, and whenever attacked, it uses Megaton Smash to KO a party member, ignoring the magical death protection gained from relics like the Safety Bit and Memento Ring. The shell uses White Wind when the head is out to heal it for 9,999 HP.
Upon defeat, Neslug will drop Mog's ultimate weapon, Gungnir.
Strategy[]
Firaga is recommended for direct attacks against the head to hit Neslug's weakness. Casting Vanish on the party will protect them from all of Neslug's attacks except Sticky Goo, allowing them to attack without fear of Megaton Smash.
