While Gorgons are thought to be undead, they are not affected by Pure Water like other undead creatures. They are wild but seem to live in harmony with Jonathan Jones and his crew.
Attack Pattern: All of Gorgon's magic attacks hit a single character and cause quite a bit of damage. Diamond Saw is especially dangerous and Echo Finder may prevent it's target from using Special Attacks. They also have a regular attack that is hard to block.
Basic Strategies: If fighting a large group of enemies, Gorgons may be one of your later targets. They take about two or three timed hits and magic attacks are not very effective against them. Geno Beam and Thunder may work.
Advanced Strategies: If there is one Gorgon and only a couple of other enemies, beat him first. You should be able to finish him in one round if all of your characters attack him with timed hits, maybe even before he gets a chance to attack. This will eliminate Gorgon's powerful magic attacks from the equation, and the character who finishes him off may get a life-replenishing HP Max to boot!
Blocking Gorgons is hard. Like Enigmas, they form an arrow in front of one character, then they twitch a couple of times and split apart. You need to try to block as they are splitting apart. Since they mainly use magic attacks, you probably won't have to worry about blocking these guys very often.
