3.0: Elemental Weakness/Resistance?

Thats when you assume ifrit will become immune to fire!
You seem to assume a lot, because thats not what i had said.
And sorry, but you really sound like one of those Bards...

Whether he is immune or he resists a portion of the damage is nearly irrelevant as you would still be penalized for not using the correct element. Do you even understand the implication of removing Fire from a Black Mage's rotation ? Or Blizzard for Shiva ?

And read his/her comments again, nothing he/she said is even remotely close to what you're implying. He/she even acknowledged otherwise.

But gonna win on a other side.
Having a spell damage decrease doesnt mean an other to be increase like it used to be.
Since you like to set up on the Ifrit/Shiva exemple, and as far as i remember my elemental chart, Ifrit will resist Fire damage but will take a bit more from Water, so does Shiva with Fire while she resist Blizzard .. get it ?
Its almost ridiculous to always say it would be a penalty, when you're just looking at a portion of the mechaninc herself :/
Also, gotta figure on how much would be the decrease/increase depending on elemental affinity before making a state of the "penalty".

Anyway, seems a bit too much talking for something we never gonna see again (imho~)
