Experiment No.88 Behemoth

Description

A variant of the Behemoth created by Hojo, Experiment No.88 can be fought in the Training Room in Shinra HQ in Chapter 3. Just talk to Hojo and agree to test your mettle against his various abominations, and eventually you’ll reach this monstrosity.

Not only does this beast have higher stats than the Behemoth you fought in the prologue, but it’s also 50% resistant to fire and ice and immune to gravity and most status effects. It gains these boons at the expense of being vulnerable to lightning, however.

It’ll perform a pair of claw swipes, each dealing moderate damage, as well as Gyro Tail (a spinning attack that deals heavy damage and inflicts knockdown). Its most dangerous attack, however, is Heave, which reduces your health around 20% every time it lands.

Fortunately, like other Behemoths, Experiment No.88 can’t turn very well, resorting to performing 90-degree leaps when it needs to respond to threats on its flanks. Stay at its sides or rear and it shouldn’t be able to hit you with anything besides Gyro Tail.
