    In terms of directional fighting, ZNM Wulgaru takes more damage from certain directions than others until it blows up its body parts.

    Right. I had considered the most basic application of this idea to be Yin and Yang or Jailer of Prudence esque with the primary difference being that they'd be the same mob.

    A basic example, like the above, would be an iron giant that takes double damage if attacked on it's head, and half damage if attacked at it's feet. /ra and magic can target the head but you have to stagger the feet in order for melee to reach the head. It's not so different from the Eye NM in abyssea Kon.

    Another thought just discussed was how "staggering" would play a role in this. I thought it'd be cool to have a big mob with targetable feet, arms, and head. When you stagger all 4 components, (both arms and feet), you would be able to attack the head directly. This would take advantage of VW stagger stacking AND add a cool variation to "exploit the enemies weakness."

    What do you think?

    I don't suppose that continuously bumping this thread will increase the odds of one of the community reps posting or garnering other players opinions of the above ideas.

    Everyone seems interested in whining about VW/Nyzul/Beastmasters;; /sigh
