Note to Mages

[Nvr]

Its the most active thread on FFXIAH's war board, it isn't that hard to find when its the first link there. And Corses do have a 50% resistance to piercing, anyone with eyes can see that on ffxiclopedia. No lie there. I chose the most readily available pic on my photobucket, and when GG decided to play around with me, I searched through screens for higher than my original, your point?

Yeah, but according to others, that NM takes like +200-300% dmg. So what would a -50% reduction matter?

Oh, I would also like to point out that my original comment about his Sig is bosed on his CURRENT sig, and not yours. I am talking about that giant sig he has just got attention.

Are you sure they arent mistaking it for this: http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Manananggal
Miclantecuhtli absorbs damage unless casting, Qutrubs on the other hand do take double damage. They both have names starting with M, found in same map, could be easy mistake.

I have not researched it at all. I was just responding based on several other posters comments.

Here is the wiki

Low Physical Defense

Seems to take enhanced damage from physical attacks, but only while casting. If attacked while it's not casting, it will recover an amount equal to the normal damage of the hit.

Read his notes, Qutrubs take 2x damage. Anyways, time for work.

Yes, Mictlantecuhtli absorbs physical damage when he's not casting magic, but he takes considerably higher amounts of physical damage when you are able to inflict physical damage to him. It's no different really than those screenshots where you see people doing 10k+ to the Ironclad Smiter in Abyssea - Altepa. Whereas while the numbers by themselves are high, given the nature of the NM you're fighting, they're just not impressive. Your Drakesbane to Mictlantecuhtli is basically only around 2-3k on something else, so while it's reasonable, it's hardly spectacular.
