Final Fantasy 16: Ahriman Location and How to Beat

Ahriman is one of the Notorious Mark Hunts in Final Fantasy 16.

Ahriman

Rank C

Location: This first mark appears as part of the story

Reward: 10 renown, 5,000 gil

Combat tips:

• Teleports when under pressure, making it difficult to pin down
• The best way to deal with its slow-moving lightning balls is to dodge through them
• Its laser eye deals a chunk of damage but it's easy enough to dodge as it's not very accurate
• It's a good idea to focus on dodging and movement during this fight
• Its ground-based magic attacks come out quickly, so keep moving and watch out for additional attacks while the ground spells are ongoing
• Ahriman can cast Doom, a spell that will instantly kill Clive if it hits. You cannot avoid the initial casting, but when the four orbs disappear, a large red circle will appear on the ground. You must get out of this circle before it explodes, or it's a one-hit kill. Fortunately, the timing is fairly generous as long as you're not caught by surprise
