    The tooltip for Foe is "Reduces all enemy magic resistance by 10%." The buff on you states "Using MP to lower the magic resistances of nearby enemies." The debuff on the enemies affected states "All magic resistances are reduced." Nowhere does it say "reduced elemental damage."

    Also, Windbite is physical damage, not magical. That's why it's not affected by Foe Requiem. Only 5 jobs benefit from Foe Requiem; BLM, SMN, WHM, SCH and NIN. And that comment about 'serious damage' erks me. What, so if your healer is only doing 200 DPS compared to 300, you're not gonna sing to make that into 220 DPS?

    It USED to say elemental damage in beta/early 2.0/2.1 area. They changed it after people figured out what it ACTUALLY did and complained about the tooltip being misleading though.
