Learn how to defeat the Gold Element in Final Fantasy X HD Remaster. Discover its stats, weaknesses, and item drops to prepare for battle in the Thunder Plains.
Alright, let's talk about the Gold Element. You'll run into these guys in the Thunder Plains, and honestly, they're pretty similar to the other Element-type enemies you've probably already dealt with. They're tough against physical attacks and actually *absorb* Thunder damage, so don't even bother with that. Their big weakness? Water! So, get Lulu to blast 'em with Water or Watera spells. The main thing they'll do is hit one of your characters with a Thunder spell, so keep an eye on your HP.
Here's a quick rundown of their stats and what they drop:
| HP | Overkill | AP | Weak | Strong |
| 1,200 | 1,800 | 92 | Water | Fire/Ice (Halves), Thunder (Absorbs) |
When it comes to loot, you're looking at Mana Spheres most of the time, and sometimes you'll snag an Electro Marble, especially if you manage to steal it (which you can do twice if you're lucky!).
| Common Drop | Rare Drop | Common Steal | Rare Steal |
| Mana Sphere (x1) | Mana Sphere (x1) | Electro Marble | Electro Marble (x2) |
