Updated: 7 Oct 2025 Location: Chaos Shrine (Past - B3) Level: 44+ Difficulty: Hard

The third fiend of the past is Kraken, who returns for a rematch in Final Fantasy 1 Pixel Remaster’s final dungeon. He has overcome his weakness to Thunder and remains a pure physical powerhouse, now with an even higher Attack stat and a massive HP pool, demanding your strongest defensive measures.

Bestiary: #126

With 3,600 HP and his Thunder weakness gone, Kraken is a straightforward brute. He has no weaknesses and will relentlessly assault the party with physical attacks.

Battle Strategy

Do not waste time with Thunder spells. This fight is all about physical defense and offense. Cast Protera and Invisira immediately to reduce his damage output. Have your Black Wizard cast Haste on the party’s Knight and Master. Use Giant’s Gloves (Saber) to further boost their attack. Once buffs are active, it’s a pure damage race.

Buffs are not optional for this fight. Without Protera and Invisira, Kraken’s powerful attacks will be devastating. This is arguably the most straightforward of the fiend rematches; simply outlast his physical damage with your own.

After the Battle


The third fiend is defeated again. Only one remains before the final confrontation. Ascend to the next floor to face the final guardian, Tiamat.
