The Djinn is your first true boss encounter. It primarily uses physical attacks and can cast Fire. Its main threat is its ability to inflict 'Poison' status, which deals damage over time. Ensure your White Mage has Antidotes or the 'Poisona' spell ready.

Strategy:

  1. Black Mage: Focus on casting 'Blizzard' spells. Djinn is weak to Ice, so these will deal significant damage.
  2. White Mage: Keep the party healed with 'Cure' spells. Prioritize curing 'Poison' on your main damage dealers.
  3. Warrior/Monk: Use your strongest physical attacks. If you have a Monk, 'Focus' can boost their damage.
  4. General: Keep your HP above critical levels. If a character gets low, have the White Mage heal them immediately. Don't be afraid to use Potions if your White Mage is busy or low on MP. This battle is a good test of your basic combat understanding.
