Template:FFI Enemies

Ooooh... what a treat... what a treat to be the one to send you to your graves! Perish knowing it was Scarmiglione who fed your corpses to the earth!

Scarmiglione

Scarmiglione is an enemy in the Dawn of Souls remake of the original Final Fantasy. The party finds him on the fifth level of the Hellfire Chasm, and must defeat either him or Cagnazzo to continue through the dungeon. Like his appearance in Final Fantasy IV he has two forms, the second being stronger than the first. His battle sprites are identical to that of his incarnation in Final Fantasy IV.

Strategy

First Form

Scarmiglione's first form is laughably weak. He uses only first-tier magical attacks, usually Thunder. You may want to cast NulShock to protect against this, but don't waste more MP than necessary. You want to be at optimal HP and MP levels when you combat his second form, and no positive status buffs such as Haste will carry over to the second battle. When he falls, he will taunt the party and reveal his true form.

Second Form

You've given me a fine death! A fine indeed! And only in death you'll know the true terror of Scarmiglione!

Scarmiglione

Template:FFI Enemies Scarmiglione's second manifestation can be a challenge. He comes with a 3000 HP boost and the dreadful "Poison Gas" attack, which can do over 400 damage to your final team. He does this often, but make sure to remedy it immediately with Healaga. Haste, Temper, and Saber will be of utmost important in this fight, as physical attackers are more effective against Scarmiglione than magic. Since he is undead, Fire and Dia spells will hit his weak spot, but because of his high Magic Resistance, will usually not inflict more than 500 damage. Just make sure to heal against "Poison Gas" and you should be alright.
