    Fealty

    Doesn't resist Poison, but it resists everything else.

    Is this working as intended?

    Doesn't resist Bio either, and probably not Dia.

    On the other hand, it does resist Mijin Gakure, so who knows.

    So long as it continues to prevent paralysis and silence, I'm a happy taru.

    Technically Bio isn't an enfeeble. As for Poison and Dispel, I concede. No idea why it doesn't work.

    All of the afore mentioned spells fall under the "dark magic skill" category (yes dispel and poison are classified as dark magic). Fealty only resists spells that specifically count under "enfeebling magic skill" such as sleep, rasp, shock, slow, bind, gravity, etc, etc.

    Except poison is in fact enfeebling. And the elemental debuffs like shock and rasp are elemental magic.

    Except... No.

    As Dragonlord said, Shock/Rasp/etc are Elemental Magic. Dispel is Enfeebling magic. Poison is water-based Enfeebling magic =/.

    My apologies, in which case I don't know the exact reason why it's not working, but I can offer a hypothesis. Bio however is dark magic, not enfeebling and subsequently is not effected by fealty. Dispel is enfeebling too so I'll correct myself on that one. On the flip side though perhaps you're looking at it from the wrong standpoint. Resistance doesn't necessarily mean the spell doesn't stick, it also effects the duration of the spell if it does happen to stick. I suggest testing duration of the effect with and without the ability active. After all, the description says "Grants a powerful resistance to enfeebling magic", not "grants immunity to enfeebling magic".

    Bio and sleep are both dark element based, yet one is classified dark magic skill (bio), the other is classified enfeebling (sleep). Granted I was wrong about poison and dispel being classified dark magic as well as mistakenly classifying others as enfeebling, but their element base has nothing to do with magic class. For example stun is lightening based but classified dark magic, shock is also lightening based but classified as elemental.
