Battle
Behemoths can attack in groups of two, and counters offensive esper summons with Meteor; it counters most other attacks with Beatdown, which deals massive damage.
Locke can steal Hermes Sandals, a useful Relic, from them.
Strategy
They are weak to Ice, so Blizzara spells will prove effective. Strago can also use Lv 4 Flare for heavy damage. A way of providing Vanish, such as the Esper Phantom, makes dealing with Behemoths easier, as their normal attack pattern is purely physical.

Behemoth is a beast mentioned in Job 40:15–24. In addition to mythological creatures, it is likened to dinosaurs, especially sauropods, as well as elephants, hippos, rhinos, and bison. Metaphorically, the term behemoth denotes "an extremely large or powerful entity".
