Maat fight is easy as pie for any player who has half decent gear, buys consumables, and knows what the hell they're doing.

Interesting fact, this is/was probably less than 1% of the playerbase that was hitting level 70 for the first time.

Which is roughly 100% of the elitists in the game. Interesting fact.

White Mages can occasionally get hate, especially with all the hate reset moves mobs have these days. Knowing how to keep yourself alive with cure bombs so your party doesn't have a weakened White Mage when they get hate off you is a valuable skill.

Abyssea taught me that a WHM with good gear/atma can hold an NM until it gets to rage timer. Later on I learned how WHM is a better tank than PLD inside abyssea. Neither of these 2 things apply to "standard" WHM play style

Cap your Divine Magic. He can still resist however, but the Maat fight for White Mage is brain dead easy between a Light Staff, Earth Staff and AF1 pants.

I suspect that White Mage just being a mule job to people could influence the lack of a win rate against Maat, the fight is incredibly easy with preparation.

Repose landed and it was the first Maat fight, I didn't auto win so I don't see the point other than being able to Repose > Debuff or some breathing room(is that needed on whm fight?), what's the point in mentioning it? I won 1/1 btw with cure method after Repose > Debuffs.

I was being a bit cheeky, considering that the Maat fight is more of a Monk with White Mage sub vs. White Mage fight then a WHM v. WHM fight.

A White Mage with good melee gear can defeat Maat between TP restore items. It isn't common, considering how much easier it is to just Repose him if it is your first fight. If you ever go after Maat for his cap, you'll need to be able to club him to death however.

Ah I see, oddly enough cure method on my taru mule took less time than meleeing it down as an 80 WHM for Maat's Cap. Though didn't have Black Halo at the time so no Hexa > Halo WS option.

Which is roughly 100% of the elitists in the game. Interesting fact.

LOL man my whole LS is filled with elitists then and here I thought I was in a casual LS learned something new.

ITT: Decent gear + Correct Item/Food usage = Elitist.

Repose lasts 90 seconds unresisted, and you have to survive for five minutes after your first hostile action on Maat. Basically, you have to Repose him 2-3 times unresisted, you can avoid having to do it a third time with enough distance and time between casts.

It is just an easier way of doing the cure method I suppose, but it definitely makes the fight much easier and cheaper if you don't have to cure spam yourself for five minutes.

Ah, interesting... swore I did it in less than 5 going the cure route but this was a several months ago and I don't think i took a screenshot.
