Minotaur (Final Fantasy Tactics)
From Final Fantasy Wiki
- "Monster with a bull's head and a human body. It draws powerful attacks."
- —Description
Minotaurs are a family of monsters in Final Fantasy Tactics. They are usually the first rather dangerous enemies encountered in the game, due to their high HP and attack power. They wield pickaxes in battle, which the more advanced Minotaurs are able to extract impressive attacks from. Executing non-KO melee attacks against this class of monster is unwise, because a swift counterattack by the Bull Demon will usually deal a hefty amount of damage. They are of the Earth element and have a weakness to Water.
[edit] Ranks
- Rank I: Wisenkin (Bull Demon)
The Wisenkin is a greenish color and is usually found in mountainous areas.
- Rank II: Minotaur (Minitaurus)
The race's original name is rather misleading, as its physique and power are anything but mini.
- Rank III: Sekhret (Sacred)
The Sekhret's Mimic Titan ability allows it to attack from long range. It can be poached for a very nice polearm, the Holy Lance.
