Behemoths are powerful quadruped monsters in Final Fantasy Tactics. They rank amongst the most difficult monsters in the game due to their superb HP and physical attack stats. In addition to their melee strikes, each race of Behemoth can learn a destructive magical attack via the Monster Skill Support Ability.
Behemoths are the "weakest" of their genre, but they still pack the devastating horns and teeth that can take out weaker mages in one hit.
King Behemoths are basically Behemoths with even more HP.
If it is possible for King Behemoths to get any more difficult, the Dark Behemoth can pack on nearly 900 HP at optimum levels. Almagest is a great magical attack. A Dark Behemoth is one of the few monsters powerful enough to be a worthy addition to your party.
