???? every turn, and with 5000 HP that turns out to be a one-hit KO attack very quickly. There are few ways to circumvent the Kuza Beasts from ripping you interesting new ways to bleed. !Control is the obvious one. Kuza Beasts can also be petrified, so a 
Break spell or Break spellblade effect takes him out in a single shot. If you don't damage the Kuza Beast it'll never damage you, so there's plenty of time to set up your Mystic Knight.When you've entered the sealed castle, its halls are derelict. But all is not silent in the halls of the dead; guarding the relics of old, the ancient weapons of yore, are Shield Dragons. They've got quite a bit of Defense and Magic Defense, have an inherent Protect, Shell and Reflect status and attack with a lot of force. Physical attacks are bad; its Special !Knock Silly sets Confuse. It may also use Zombie Breath, a multi-target non-elemental and barrier-piercing attack which sets Zombie on every character it kills. There's but two ways to deal with a Shield Dragon. You can either run from them or Control them. Controlling them allows you to use Blaze on themselves for 4999 damage every time. After four Blaze attacks, the Shield Dragon should only have 3 HP left; something a physical in the back should be able to take care of.
Fun fact: !Catch one and it'll use Almagest, a multi-target Holy-elemental attack. It's not incredibly powerful coming from Shield Dragon (around 750 damage), but it's this game's final boss trademark attack; only this cretin and some other random enemy uses it when Released. Fairy Orcs absorb it! Jumping Jehosaphat!
The twelve weapons have been petrified after having remained untouched for millennia. Still, they represent a powerful force of good, and their names should sound familiar to most players.
Excalibur
Assassin's Dagger- Sasuke's Katana
Holy Lance
Rune Axe
Masamune
Yoichi's Bow
Fire Lash
Sage's Staff
Magus Rod
Apollo's Harp
Gaia's Bell
Galuf's enthusiasm is touching, but there's really nothing here but dusty and once-powerful museum pieces. Let's get out of here and travel further, down south and east. You'll be able to meet Kuza Beasts on the grasslands south of the Sealed Castle.
Eventually, you'll stop encountering monsters altogether, and you have but to go west to enter a forest.
