Geiseric is a weaker side-quest monster compared to other side bosses, however, it should should not be taken lightly. Once in a while, it will use Dominating Fist for massive physical and magical damage.

Strategy[]

Good paradigms include:

  • Guerilla (SYN/SAB/RAV)
  • Tri-disaster (RAV/RAV/RAV)
  • Cerberus (COM/COM/COM)
  • Rapid Growth (SYN/SYN/SYN)
  • Convalescence (MED/MED/SYN)
  • Conservation (SEN/SEN/SYN)

The player can start with Guerilla and buff up while an ally boosts the Geiseric's chain gauge and the other is casting Deshell. Once the buffs are on, the player can switch to Tri-disaster to stagger the enemy, then shift to the Cerberus to deplete the monster's health. It is best to launch the monster and keep it airborne as much as possible. Conservation can be used to mitigate damage from Domineering Fist.

Etymology[]

Geiseric is a different spelling of Genseric. Genseric was the 5th century king of Vandals and Alans that played a key role in the ultimate demise of the Western Roman Empire.
