Find and defeat the Masterless Marauder (Behemoth King) in final fantasy xvi. Location: North Vidargraes, Waloed. Reward: 20,000 Gil, 55 Renown.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    When you first accept the hunt, it will be listed as “Masterless Marauder” with “???” as the location. Read the bill to learn it was captured by Waloeders, indicating it is in the Ash region.
  2. 2
    Teleport to the Vidargraes obelisk.
  3. 3
    Make your way southwest from the obelisk.
  4. 4
    The Behemoth King will be lumbering in the distance. Head towards it to initiate the battle.

Behemoth King Attacks and Counters:

  • Arm Swipe: Dodge when the arm meets you. Low damage if hit.
  • Melee Combo (2-Hit): Dodge the elbow drop for a Precision Dodge, or dodge the tail.
  • Melee Combo (4-Hit): If Will-o’-the-Wykes is active, you can ignore it. Otherwise, back away until the combo finishes. All attacks can be dodged, but backing away is safer.
  • Shoulder Charge: Move to the side of the charge or dodge as it gets close.
  • Pounce: Run to either side or dodge as it reaches you.
  • Lightning Storm: Move away from the blue marks on the ground. Dodge at the last second for a Precision Dodge.
  • Four Horsemen: Run from the meteors and jump shockwaves, or stand in the center and dodge/jump. Ignore the comets, but stay mobile.
  • Maelstrom: This attack creates a tornado in front of the Behemoth, usually followed by Lightning Storm. Attack from its rear, but be careful not to get caught in the tornado.
  • Reign of Fire: Stand between meteors as they fall, then move away from the expanding molten fire pools. Stay agile.
  • Apocalypse: Avoid Reign of Fire and Four Horsemen as usual. For the final giant meteor, get out of the large, fragmented orange circle before it impacts.

Recommended Abilities:

  • Bahamut - Gigaflare (Damage 5 Stars)
  • Bahamut - Will-o’-the-Wykes (Will 2 Stars)
