Weaknesses:

Strategy:
The fight against Bahamut is an epic Eikon-vs-Eikon battle, primarily fought as Ifrit. Bahamut is a flying opponent, so you'll need to utilize Ifrit's aerial attacks and dodges. Bahamut's main attacks are powerful beam attacks ('Megaflare', 'Gigaflare') and dive bombs. Focus on dodging his beams by flying to the side or using Ifrit's quick dodge. After he unleashes a major attack, he'll often be vulnerable for a short period. Use Ifrit's 'Ignition' to close distance and 'Wildfire' for sustained damage. The fight has multiple phases, with Bahamut becoming more aggressive and unleashing more devastating attacks. Pay close attention to his tells for his most powerful attacks. During his 'Zettaflare' charge, you'll need to deal significant damage to interrupt it or brace for a massive hit.
Rewards:
- Bahamut Eikon Abilities
