Battle
Part I
The enemy is found roaming outside of Liberte and inside the Pirate Hideout. The enemy often appears by itself and has access to the Unbreakable skill, which makes it immune to physical attacks.
As it has high defense, it is highly recommended of the player to attack the enemy with black magic. After Part II begins, the Aspidochelons on the world map and inside the Pirate Hideout are replaced with the Archelon enemy.
Part II
During the events of Part II the Aspidochelon can only be found inside the Moonsand Ruins bonus dungeon. When they are encountered inside the Moonsand Ruins, they appear in groups of two. The Aspidochelon can become a challenge, due to the fact its physical attacks deal heavy damage and they use Unbreakable more often.
When fighting Aspidochelon, it is highly advised of the player to have high defense and to attack with Quaga and Magic Might, while the other party members use healing items and Curaga to heal damaged allies.
