Battle[]

YAT-97 can attack from long range and has attacks that can either target a single party member or the whole party, the latter being magical. From long range, it will use a single-target attack against the last party member that targeted it, or a party-wide attack otherwise. At close range and against aeons, it will just use single-target attacks.

YAT-97 will drop armor with any combination of up to three elemental ward abilities and weapons with Strength or Magic 5% bonuses. It is one of the very few enemies in the game that can drop Mega Phoenixes.
