Ring Wyrm The Ring Wyrm is a Rank III Mark from " Final Fantasy XII " . It is powerful despite its low rank . It is the seventh mark listed in the Clan Primer and becomes available after the player vanquishes the Wyvern Lord . It can be found in the Windtrace Dunes area of the Dalmasca Westersand during a sandstorm . Defeating the Ring Wyrm is an early way to get the Icebrand sword . In the game ' s playable demo Ring Wyrm is a boss fought in the Stilshrine of Miriam , but this version is drastically easier with much lower HP , and the demo ' s Ring Wyrm doesn ' t use any of the status inducing attacks it uses in the full game . Battle . Ring Wyrm has plenty of HP and will use area attacks that inflict statuses . Once the Ring Wyrm has lost half its health it will use Restore to gain back 30 % of it . When it is in HP Critical it will no longer use Breath or Rake . The wyrm ' s attacks can be blocked with shields early on in the battle , but once it has used Restore its attacks will be immune against shields . It can still miss under Blind status , but equipping shields is pointless after this point . Strategy . The player should buy Esuna before battling this mark because it will inflict Sap , Immobilize and Disable on the party . The battle is best opened with Dispel . If possible , a well - timed Quickening chain can be used to lower the Ring Wyrm ' s HP . The party can also summon Belias , as the Ring Wyrm is weak to Fire . The player should be ready to cast Cure / Curaga on Belias , or use Charge repeatedly to be able to summon it again when it uses its final attack or dies . A good method is to focus all party members on casting Blind on Ring Wyrm . Once the magick hits , it is time to summon Belias . After being blinded Ring Wyrm usually gives up on his damaging physical attacks ( or will miss most of the time ) and attack Belias with Blizzara , Thundara , Fira , Fire Breath and Fire Ball . Since three of those five attacks heal Belias , and Thundara and Blizzara do little damage , the player can focus on staying away from Ring Wyrm and keep Belias out the whole battle . With this strategy , it is easy for even lower level players to defeat Ring Wyrm . To repeatedly summon Belias , one can use Charge or Syphon his MP . Alternatively , the player can place the Esper so that a cactus is between him and the Ring Wyrm . Belias will be able to damage the monster with Pain Flare , while the Wyrm will only be able to attack with his weak magick spells . Another method using the Blind with a higher than average level party is to cast Blind and use Bacchus ' s Wine s . The party should stand just outside of Ring Wyrm ' s attack range ( i . e just as his health bar appears ) and ready Blind on all three party members to cast on Ring Wyrm . After Ring Wyrm is blinded the player can just use Bacchus ' s Wines while using two characters for healing . The player can also use Reflect on the party to reflect its spells back onto the Ring Wyrm ; if a spell is cast on all three party members under Reflect at the same time , the spell will bounce back three times . This method can be used to beat the mark before entering Tomb of Raithwall . Another one of the ways to take down the Ring Wyrm is to equip two of the party members with ranged weapons while the other serves as the melee tank . The two party members will keep their distance and heal and cast Esuna onto the tank ( or on themselves ) when necessary and cast Blind on the Ring Wyrm . Although this is one of the simpler ways to take down the Ring Wyrm , it is also riskier and takes longer thanks to the Ring Wyrm ' s huge HP . It is best to send two " support " party members into battle with Cura / Curaga gambits as well as Esuna gambits to take out the effects of Ring Wyrm ' s pesky Disable spells . It would also help to equip the " support " party members with fire - elemental ammunition . The player can also use the cacti on the desert as shields to block Ring Wyrm ' s ranged attacks . Equipped with a gun , a single character can run in circles around a cactus and shoot from range while being shielded from Ring Wyrm ' s attacks . Although this method can be used to kill Ring Wyrm relatively safely , it takes a long time to whittle down its HP with just a gun . Other appearances . " Pictlogica Final Fantasy " .
