Template:Sideicon Template:FFX Enemies Evrae Altana is a boss in Final Fantasy X. After Tidus, Wakka and Rikku are imprisoned in the underwater part of the Via Purifico, Evrae Altana, a Zombie version of Evrae, appears. The party can choose to fight it, or use Trigger Commands to break the locks on nearby underwater gates to escape.
Battle
Evrae Altana can use Stone Gaze, and will use it as its first action. Stone Gaze turns a character to stone and then shatters him/her, putting the character out of action. Armors with Stone Ward are sufficient to give complete protection against it. Interestingly, Evrae Altana's Stone Gaze also has a 50% chance of inflicting Sleep; however, as it inflicts it for zero turns, it has no impact. Evrae Altana will only use Stone Gaze while all three characters are active.
Evrae Altana may counter attacks of any kind with Swipe for 800 or so damage, and its Photon Spray does a similar amount of damage spread out over eight hits. If the gates are opened twice, Evrae Altana will no longer be able to counterattack.
Strategy
Going through the gates is not recommended, as it isolates the party from the next save sphere and item chests containing the Avenger and Rematch counterattack weapons. The fastest and easiest way to beat Evrae Altana is by using two Phoenix Downs or two X-Potions. Evrae Altana is also fairly unique among bosses in being vulnerable to Demi and other proportional-damage attacks; this is a trait that was not present in Evrae.
