The Red Dragon will cast Fire 2 and use Fire Ball for most of the fight, but when it drops to 10,240 HP it will gets serious and start using Fire 3 and Flare instead. It can also use a powerful Ability every 40 seconds or so, chosen from L.4 Flare, Flare Star, and S. Cross.

Red Ds combine an immensely powerful attack with a BLAZE ability that is even more devastating than FIR3. AFIR is an absolute must. STUN is very effective, and Cold Spells can help end the battle more quickly, but FAST is even better.

Red Dragons are by far the most dangerous Random Encounter in Mt. Gulg, but fortunately they are rare encounters everywhere they appear. The only one you're guaranteed to encounter is the one guarding the Flame Mail, and you have the option to run. NulFire is a must against Red Dragons, as their Blaze attack can deal upwards of 200 damage. Their normal attack is also quite powerful, though very much preferable to Blaze. They have high Defense and Evasion combined with almost unbreakable Magic Defense. Your best bet is to buff your melee characters and hope for a few lucky hits.

The Red Dragon's attacks similar to the Blue Dragon, but with 1,500 HP and a higher Defense, the fight will last longer. Blaze 16 should be considered a reprieve from its basic attack. Ice is of course effective.
