Template:Sideicon Template:IncompleteTable Template:FFV Enemies Omniscient is a boss in Final Fantasy V. He is one of the bosses guarding a spell in the Fork Tower. Omniscient is guarding the Flare spell.
Battle
Physical attacks will cause Omniscient to cast Return, resetting the battle. The player can prevent him from casting anything by attacking him with a weapon enchanted with Silence. When Omniscient is defeated, he casts Flare as a final attack.
Strategy
An efficient method to defeat Omniscient is to summon Carbuncle, so Omniscient's spells are reflected back at him. Another method is to cast Berserk on him and then summon Golem. This way, he cannot use Return to restart the battle, and the party will not suffer damage from his physical attacks. Provided the party is under Reflect, or Omniscient is berserked or silenced, Omniscient's final attack should not pose a threat.
Another strategy is to use two Mystic Knights, one equipped with Blue Magic and other with Summon and use Spellblade Mute constantly, or one Mystic Knight can attack with Mute while the other will use Aeroga or summon Syldra.

Etymology
Omniscience (from Latin omni, omnis: all/everything and scientia, scientiae: knowledge) is the state of knowing everything, often interpreted to include perfect foresight, or knowledge of future events. Many gods are omniscient and sometimes (as in the case of Odin from Norse paganism) had to undergo a difficult trial to gain omniscience.
