Sometimes it's worth losing some DT- to increase the speed of the fight such as possibly.

2x -10 PDT Axes, Ferine Quijotes+2, DG, MKD Hat, Zenith, Shepherd's Chain and RR. That way you'll have ~97 PDT- 70% MDT- and a good DD Atma to speed the battles up.

2 axes + head + neck + legs + ducal + zenith = 100% pdt

the fact that you dont know this personally tells me that u dont have all of these things and have never used them in abyssea. And that leads me to question wether or not u should be suggesting about stuff u dont know about.

And you can come back and argue with "well wiki says 2% for this and 10% for that" but my reply is GO GET ALL OF IT. Put it ON.
watch 60k needles hit for 0.
Then tell me its not 100%.

I think I missed a post some where.

I'm kind of surprised captain cool actually snapped at someone. I think you misread something tbh. I think they guy was suggesting an alternative so the OP would have quicker fight times.

yes his math was a little off ( probably due to information from wiki ) but I think the idea he was trying to put out there was for faster fight time and not the drawn out 60 minute solo fests that a lot of us do when we're bored.

sounded as if it were taken personal but I doubt the poster meant for it to rub someones fur the wrong way.

you will have 100% -pdt.

I'm getting 9% reduction w/ ONLY Ferine Quijotes +2.
2% from shepherd's chain.
10% from hat
21% -dt from gear alone
then 20% from axes.
50% from DG
Zenith is 10%

also thats 81% -mdt

selemnus for another 3% mdt
100% pdt-
84% mdt-

and you still get Razed Ruins for decent damage.

Its also nice to have 2 Guichard's axe +1 with Pet Magic Defense bonus +9 for macroing in when u see spells. Or for NMs with purely magic damage like the ACP boss or Hross or The gargoulle boss in ulgerande whose name i cant remember xD

MDT and MDB dont truly stack together for reaching immunity but it does still help knock off a good chunk of damage.

quick math its kinda like if u were gunna get hit by a spell for 5k 84% MDT would make it only hit for 800

But 18 mdB and 84% MDT would make it hit for 656.

Admittedly tho, this macroing can be detrimental if your connection speed is low or your reflexes are bad. A tip: watch the pet health bar to tell when an attack has landed. I.E. spell starts casting> hit mdb axe macro> pet health bar goes down a sliver> hit PDT axe macro. If you wait for the text to promt the damage you will end up letting physical hits slip pass Physical immunity. And that kinda defeats the purpose of eeking out the extra magic reduction.

I wasn't mad or anything. Maybe a little snarky but def not mad.

P.S. Its cool that i'm captain cool though.
