Tiamat is a boss from Final Fantasy XII. It is a dragon-type boss fought at the end of the Henne Mines. Vaan and party traveled there in search of Fran's sister, Mjrn. When they finally found her, she had become mad due to a natural Viera intolerance to high concentrations of Mist, in this case from exposure to Manufacted Nethicite, and had awakened Tiamat from its slumber. Tiamat also returns in Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings as a summon.

[edit] Bestiary Entry
[edit] Page 1: Observations
"Being a dragon awakened by Fran's sister, Mjrn, in a Mist-frenzy. Ancient tomes describe it as an anima of the winds, possessed of a violent temperament and destructive power enough to lead the entire world to ruin. There are some who believe that Tiamat was responsible of the decimation of the imperial troop performing experiments on manufactured nethicite, having been awakened by the Stones' fell cry."
[edit] Battle
An average party level of 18 is recommended. However, should you be fortunate enough to take the precaution of having your party members above level 25, Tiamat shouldn't present too much of a difficulty. Larsa will be a guest in your party and the player should try to keep him alive, as he will use infinite Hi-Potions to heal other party members. Try to keep the party spread out to make it more difficult for Tiamat to use area attacks. Characters equipped with ranged weapons tend to spread out more than those who are not. However, move characters low on health near Larsa and he will use Hi-Potions to heal them. Support status effects like Shell, Protect, and Regen are recommended. Save Quickenings (or Belias) until Tiamat's health becomes critical, as its defense heightens as its HP decreases, making regular attacks less effective. Tiamat's Disablega will disable all characters in range, which can only be cured with an Esuna spell or Remedies. Having the party well-spaced should prevent all characters from being disabled at once. Do not use a Gambit strategy that causes the characters to heal constantly. Tiamat deals heavy damage and if the characters are constantly healing themselves and each other, they will not be attacking Tiamat. Beware Tiamat's Breath ability; it Saps on contact, so you will constantly lose health. With luck and skill, you should be able to defeat Tiamat.
