Monsters: Weak against Fire – 50 shown
Rare monsters are hard to find in random encounters; unique monsters are only encountered during one-time plot encounters; the final bosses must be defeated to complete the main plot; note that multiple monsters may have the same name, especially in the case of multi-stage bosses
Name
The monster's type, as indicated by the in-game bestiary
Type
The monster's subtype, as indicated by the in-game bestiary
Subtype
The monster's starting and maximum hit points
HP
The monster's strength; a standard physical attack will deal approximately this amount of damage
Strength
The monster's magic power; a typical magic attack will deal approximately this amount of damage
Magic
A monster's chain resistance indicates how quickly its chain meter fills up; a chain resistance of 70 is normal, and every 30 points modifies the chain bonus per hit by that same amount; thus, the chain meter of a monster with a chain resistance of 40 will increase at double speed (compared to 70), or triple speed with a chain resistance of 10; a chain resistance of 100 negates all chain modifiers, reducing each hit to a minimal change to the chain gauge; when a monster is staggered, its chain resistance is reduced to 0
Chain Resistance
When the monster's chain gauge reaches this point, it increases by 100% and they are considered staggered; staggered creatures have a chain resistance of zero; if a monster has no stagger point listed, it will nonetheless be staggered when its chain gauge reaches 999.0%
Stagger Point
A monster's stagger index is an adjusted value that gives a relative measure of how hard a monster is to stagger; this number is based on how many hits the monster's chain gauge would require to reach the stagger point with a chain resistance of 70; for instance, a monster with a chain resistance of 70 and a stagger point of 150.0% would have a stagger index of 50 (since the chain gauge starts at 100.0%), as would a monster with a chain resistance of 40 and a stagger point of 200.0% or a monster with a chain resistance of 85 and a stagger point of 125.0%; the stagger index of a monster with a chain resistance of 100 is an approximation due to the effects of having 100 chain resistance
Stagger Index
The amount of CP earned by defeating this monster
CP
The amount of gil earned by defeating this monster
Gil
The relative priority of this monster's actions; the comparison of this value to that of other actions determines which actions succeed and which are interrupted
Action Priority
The vulnerability of this monster to the Launch ability
Launch?
The relative amount of bestiary data earned by fighting this monster normally
Libra
The role and starting grade of the tamed version of this monster, if it can be tamed
Tamed Role
The base chance that you will earn the monster crystal for this monster after battle
Tame Chance
The level of vulnerability this monster has against this element; "weakness" means the monster takes extra damage from the element, "halved" means they take half damage, "resistant" means they take 10% damage, "immune" means they take no damage, and "absorbed" indicates that they will gain hit points from attacks of this element
Vulnerability
The item you are most likely to earn after defeating this monster in combat; it is not possible to earn both the common drop and the rare drop from a single monster
Common Drop
The chance that you will earn the monster's common drop after combat; this chance can be modified by certain accessories

The item you are less likely to earn after defeating this monster in combat; it is not possible to earn both the common drop and the rare drop from a single monster

Fire is your staple attack Spell Element, and one you'll be hit with quite a lot. You'll find plenty of Armor that resists Fire, which is fortunate because you'll run into 6 normal enemies with Fire Special Attacks, and several more using Fire Spells. On the offensive side, Fire is most effective against Undead and Cold-type creatures. A lot of Monsters resist Fire as well, including those that are themselves fiery, as well as creatures that live in water. Fire is a weakness you'll be exploiting a lot, but you need to pay close attention to weaknesses to get the most out of it. Note that, despite the name, NUKE is not actually Fire-elemental.

Fire is the basic attack Element, and likely the Fire Spell will be your highest-level attack Spell for much of the game. Some Monsters resist Fire, and many late-game enemies absorb it, but a huge number including virtually all Undead are vulnerable to it.

Fire is one of the three basic Elements, and it is a staple of your early-game attacks because of Terra's Fire Spell. Many Monsters, including most undead, are vulnerable to Fire.
