Achievement - Beast Master - Part 8 - Kains Tale
By V
A complete bestiary for the eighth chapter of the game - Kains Tale

This is also an achievement guide and we will be getting these achievements throughout the series:
  1. Taming the Wild (30% total Bestiary)
  2. A Tale to Tell (100% of one Tale)
  3. The Point of no Return(60% total Bestiary)
  4. Beast Master(100% total Bestiary)

When looking online it was hard to find a bestiary that was in the correct order or had the correct creatures due to the multiple versions of the game available. I cobbled together this resource from various forums and the Wikia and then followed through the first chapter myself to validate everything. I intend to follow this guide with a Bestiary for each chapter as I go!

I am going to lay this out in two ways:
  1. 1. The optimal or first location encountering an enemy broken down by area. (Scripted encounters will be considered optimal)
  2. 2. A complete list from the Bestiary in numerical order.

If you are having trouble locating a monster listed in a specific zone then scroll to the bottom to see where else you might find it.

Credit for the hyperlinks to the Final Fantasy Wikia which is a terrific source of information about the monsters listed here.

If you find anything missing please don't hesitate to contact me or leave me a message so I can fix it!

Thanks to Ramza66 for invaluable help =)

Where is East area in Mist Cliff? In firs zone or second zone?

Ogre can also be found at Crossing in Mt. Ordeals. Just found that out while grinding for other monsters.

Skeleton #17 may be found in Mist - Outskirts in groups of 4. Its a lot easier to encounter him there.

Interesting, maybe I'll try republishing it later and see if that makes a difference, thanks for pointing that out!
