Thread: Healing spells damaging undead - Can we have it?

This is something I've always like about the final fantasy genre. Whenever you play each one there are certain pillars of combat that remain consistent and are fun to utilize for strategy.

In this case I'm referring to the opposite nature of monsters with the undead status.

Spells that are essentially white healing magic such as ressurect, cure/curaga/etc, and even potions (although I may be mistaken on this one) are great offensive spells for once, and give healers a sense of offensive power when used on undead. It's great to fit into your strategy. Instead of using your cure spells for healing it may be better to sacrifice the mp for offense .

Also spells like absorb or drain hp would have the opposite effect on undead and actually heal them instead of suck out their hp which was a neat little backwards trick to watch out for.

I could think of boss battles or perhaps even notorious monster taking advantage of this nice little nuance to the game's combat .

Let me know what you guys think and thanks for reading ^^!

I too was just talking about this with some friends this evening and how it should be brought up to the dev team and addressed, after all, they let us target the event NPC bombard and heal it, so healing the undead shouldn't been too hard to pull off, unless I'm wrong, it could be a root issue...

Never the less, I feel this should be resolved, but in the proper priority order.

With the mp cost of the heal spells it wouldn't be rentable.

This is very FF-like, and it will make white mage become a main damage dealer to those skeleton in raid.
