Mandragora (Final Fantasy IX)

The Mandragora is an enemy from Final Fantasy IX. It can be found on forests on the Mist Continent world map, such as near to the Chocobo's Forest, Treno, and Alexandria.
Because of its higher EXP and money (due to appearing in multiples) compares to other monsters in the area, the Mandragora makes a good level grinding monster for those who wish to exploit the Marcus/Eiko stat bug. 
==Stats==
==Battle==
Mandragora is the first monster from whom Quina can learn Limit Glove, finding it in the forest north of Chocobo's Forest.
Its Chestnut attack deals damage equivalent to its maximum HP–current HP to a single target, which can be dangerous when the party is at lower levels. Shriek simply inflicts Silence. Lastly, it can cast Blizzara.
Its weakness against Fire can be exploited. LV3 Def-less works on it.
===Strategy===
When the party first meets them with Zidane, Vivi, Freya, and Quina, Vivi should use Fire without multi-targeting, with Freya using Jump. If the player meets them when wandering the Treno area with a party of Dagger, Steiner, and Marcus, the party should again focus on the Mandragoras one at a time; Dagger's Protect will not help against the Mandragoras' Chestnut.
After this point, they will be easy to defeat as the party has more HP.
