It's definitely the fire resist. I used it on some Ixali and my damage increased. Even with fire stance I was on par with a Mrd friend I duo'ing with at Zahark. I was using Earth fists and taking the same dmg he did in Colbalt.

i used it on a 40 mob and it's indeed lowering my damage... (on a raptor).
and my damage got higher on a 46 salamander... lol

again i think raptors are fire based

[Nexxus]

you right, salamander did higher damage.

So now elemental resistances work in this game? Neat.

EDIT: Wow! Earth fists and protect boosts my defence from 488 to 700!!!

I Noticed that when I activate Fire stance, my damage becomes less, I wonder if it is because my Inteligence stat is low, or because Amaljaa have fire resistance....

Lol I did the same thing! I was talking with a couple other PGL in LS thinking Fire was broken or I needed INT because I was fighting amal'jaa >.>. After I realized I was an idiot I tried it out on other non fire resistant mobs and it worked quite well. On a side note, earth fists also increase damage so long as its not resistant to earth, increased damage on hit against ifrit as well.

[Meleena]

I hear that you can heal ifrit with fire , is that true?
Fire fists boosts my attack from 555 to 686

[Soukyuu]

The stances do say that they turn your attack to that element, not only the bonus dmg. That's what I overlooked when testing it and yeah... when fighting fire mobs i do less damage

[Meleena]

So from gear perspective what will you guys wear on head? The Maat's cap or Silver Tricorn +1 Melded with Inteligence?
Ill propably go with both.

I'm loads of 50's short of crown so I will be sticking with the trusty Tricorne for now, just need to pick up an INT IV materia for it now.
