Jelly (Final Fantasy XII)

Jelly is an amorph/flan-type enemy in Final Fantasy XII found in the Henne Mines. Because they spawn in great numbers, they can be used for level grinding (see below). Eight Jellies are also fought in the Zodiac versions' Trial Mode at Stage 12.
They have the Flametongue weapon as a rare poach.

:Being a variant of flan covered in a glistening, jewel-like slime. These are known to cluster in areas with machinery and like devices, seeming to derive energy from their operation, which stimulates them to divide and multiply. Because of this flan's odd ecology, they are often found in cities and near residences where people and, more critically, their technologies are found, this proximity creating a real danger of jelly breakouts. Countless are the tales of villages and small towns consumed whole by a mass of quivering slime.

== Battle ==
In the Pithead Junction A and Pithead Junction B areas, large groups of Jellies drop from the ceiling when the switch in either area is pressed. Returning to Henne Mines will decrease the number of Jellies at Pithead Junction A to only three.
Jellies can Divide, creating a new Jelly. The new Jelly is divided by the process "binary fission", and shares the same level, stats, abilities and EXP as well as LP earned with its parent. If a "binary fission" Jelly turns into stone, it would not spawn like its parent. Soon after a Jelly's HP is halved, it will use Divide and create a new Jelly. Jellies can only use Divide once; restoring its HP and cutting its HP down to half again would not make it use Divide.
===Level grinding trick===
The Jellies make a popular and convenient level grinding target because if they are killed by petrification, they respawn, creating an infinite supply of enemies. A simple set-up is to give one party member a gambit to cast Sleepga on the Jellies, and the other two party members Gambits to cast Break on them. However, Sleepga is a late game spell, and the deeper part of Henne Mines has an even better grinding spot. The single-targeting Sleep spell is available early on, however. The player needs a gambit to restore the party's MP through Syphon or Charge, and an infinite loop is achieved with the player needing to do nothing but watch the party automatically fight the Jellies. The party can also wear Mirror Mails to protect from the Jellies' attacks, but then the party cannot use curative spells unless they wear the Opal Ring.
Depending on the party's level, the Jellies may be entirely unable to hurt them, but if they are able, the player should set up gambits to revive KO'd party members and heal injured ones. Priority should go to the party leader for healing, as if they are KO'd and not revived in time the game will prompt the player to manually select a new leader, breaking the loop. The player should also set gambits to have the party cure Confuse on each other, as even if the Jellies cannot hurt the party with their attacks, they can still inflict the status. De-equipping the party's weapons provides further protection against Confusion if it takes effect. The player can also wear accessories that protect against Confuse.
