"So? Which one of you will perish first?"

—Tiamat

Tiamat is a boss from Final Fantasy IX. He is first seen on disc 3 when Vivi and Steiner visit the Wind Shrine. Tiamat is fought off screen and referred to as Wind Guardian. He is presumably defeated by the two.

Tiamat later appears as an enemy in the Memoria. He is the second Chaos Guardian to be fought and appears in the room with a representation of the Invincible where the player can pick up the Rune Claws a powerful weapon for Amarant. In the Crystal World a crystal version of Tiamat exists.

Strategy Voltar ao índice »

Tiamat is slightly stronger than Maliris. Equipping items with protection from Aero is useful as well as Body Temp and MP Attack. Its Twister attack deals Wind-elemental ***age. It will drain MP and lower magic and strength stats so an extended fight puts the party at a disadvantage. Tiamat's Jet Fire attack will put everyone in Heat status so protection via Body Temp is ideal but waiting for the status to lift will work fine. If any of the characters have the Float status the player should remove it or not have them attack Tiamat physically as he will counter with Snort which will remove them from the battlefield. Tiamat is vulnerable to Sleep. Quina can cast Night every turn to put Tiamat to sleep and attack with the other characters. It is also possible to throw a Tent at Tiamat which has a 50% chance of inflicting Silence on him which will make the fight easier.

Crystal World Incarnation

This crystalline dragon is noticeably weaker than its flesh-and-bone cousin. Perhaps the greatest boon to the party is the absence of the Float and Snort spells which ensures all four members will remain in the battle. In addition this Tiamat is highly vulnerable to myriad status debuffs. The player should equip the Dragon Killer ability on the melee attackers and cast Ice magic. Quina Quen can learn Twister by eating the crystal Tiamat.
