Hai der,

can anyone confirm that dragons breath doesn't affect last boss in FF? I have tried several times to take it easy and just DB him, but doesn't seem to remove any damage.
Don't be fooled by the avatar, just couldn't be bothered logging in on my wizz to ask...

    do you mean the VERY last boss, as in not the one that spawns little minions? I hope so, because if you DB on the last boss before heads your squads probably doesn't like you very much b:avoid

    Maybe cuz you are standing on a stone? lol try DBing next to where the melee is and see if its better.. if you can take the hits. =x

    Ya if you are talking about the boss before heads.. someone in your squad is bound to shout close your freaking aoe or something along the line.

    lol no, i mean the very last boss. Not standing on a rock either, am standing well within range of boss. I know lots of people will say not to DB there anyway, but hey, im lazy, sue me :P

    hm I'll check that the next time I go to last boss. Usually I'll DB if I can on some bosses as well since I'm kinda lazy b:chuckle

    Was there damage being shown above the boss as if you were doing damage? Or was it like you were trying to DB a tree with no reaction from the boss whatsoever?

    I doubt that the boss doesnt take dmg from DB because it takes dmg from other fire spells too so DB should also work.

    The best way to be 100% sure is that you turn on the DMG Log then you see if DB deals dmg or not. I guess the prob here will be that the boss is so large that the dmg numbers which pop up over the bosses head wont be on your screen so you got the idea that you have made no dmg but you did

    I think it is kinda an issue with the size of the boss, but not sure. I noticed that if I want to amp the boss with Subsea Strike on my sin, it does not work. I do lose the chi and the skill is cast in a normal way, but the debuff does not appear. Not sure if he takes damage tho.

    i watch the damage log and do not see it change at all. Usually are too close to be able to see the top of the boss to see if the red damage numbers are coming off it. And if it is not doing damage, then no numbers will be coming off anyways...

    Can someone else test this please?

    It's possible he's too big. Barb's arma doesn't work on hellfire in seat either because it's too big. If you try arma, you lose your sparks and hp, but no damage happens.

    I'll test it out too when I'm in again. I assume you're talking about the holeens, little guy then big guy. He has a water affinity which makes him weaker to your earth attacks and less prone to your fire attacks i.e db pyro, d.pyro etc. plus in db you can't cast undine. I've never db'd on him but it would be interesting to know for sure.

    Tried subsea again today and it really does do no damage. I think it is just a bug with his seize, aoes do not seem to hit him...

    Sorry, but no, he is not fire resistant. Pyro / d.pyro work just fine on him. I'm just really tryn to be as lazy as possible :)

    are you in range of the little targetting circle......I thought you guys would know this but facepalm................

    You have to be in the range of the targetting circle, for some odd reason the mobs size allow you to channel a skill outside of that range.
    Sins are Scissors. Psychics are Rocks.
    Archers, Venos, Barbs, Wizards, BMs, Mystics, Seekers are Paper.
    ...and Clerics are Mushrooms.
    Paper beats Rock. Scissors beats Paper. Scissors also happens to beat Rock...until Rock gets 50k+ soulforce at which point Rock becomes an unstoppable killing machine that beats Paper... and would beat Scissors but it can't find Scissors, because Scissors are invisible.
    So Scissors beat Paper and avoids Rock, and that is called BALANCE. -cheze
