NAOCHOS are dangerous foes late in the game. Your KNIGHT doesn't have much to fear, but with three significant attacks, NAOCHOS are a mage's worst nightmare. Just for good measure, their attacks are Poisonous. Magic isn't particularly effective, so stick to Weapons.

OCHOS have high defense and HP, but thankfully their Damage is fairly low (at least compared to the other river creatures). They are Poisonous, but that should be no problem at this stage of the game. Their three attacks are a danger to lightly armored Warriors. SLOW and Lightning Spells are powerful counterattacks.

Neochus are dangerous foes late in the game, and that much more dangerous early. Your Warrior doesn't have much to fear, but with three significant attacks, Neochus are a mage's worst nightmare. Just for good measure, their attacks are Poisonous. Having almost 350 HP and a good Defense score doesn't help. Mercifully, they will only appear alone on rivers.
