Stats[]
Battle[]
They can be dangerous, as they can inflict moderately high damage to party members.
Strategy[]
Physical attacks, Fira, Holy, and Cure spells work well against it, and the Raise spell and Phoenix Downs will kill it instantly. Using lifesteal against it will damage the player instead of healing them.
The Life/Arise spells or the Phoenix Down are prone to failure but it is unknown what triggers the backfiring. The Ancient Sword is also effective, as the Zombie Dragon is susceptible to Paralysis.
Etymology[]
