Hornet

Opening of the battle against a Hornet in the Monster Arena Calm Lands

HP: 620,000

Hornet is similar to the other Wasp-type fiends in that it can be difficult to hit for characters without high Accuracy and Luck stats. Its regular attack may inflict several negative status effects, including Darkness, Silence, or Sleep. It also has an attack called “Stab,” which can cause Confusion, and an attack called “Venomous Stab,” which will cause Poison.

Utilize White Magic IconJinx, Skill IconLuck, and Special Ability IconAim to increase your odds of hitting Hornet. It may also begin casting White Magic IconCuraga on itself. Just cast White Magic IconReflect on it to prevent this.

You should consider power leveling your characters and obtaining the Celestial Weapons. Check out the Advanced section of the Tips and Tricks for more information. With properly leveled characters this fight is fairly easy.
