Degei

From FFXI Wiki
General Notes
  • Found past Diaphanous Gadget #D in Sortie. Need a Ra'Kaznar Shard #D to access.
  • Enrages after fighting for 3 minutes, after which point he takes 1/4 damage and only uses Vivisection.
    • Rage is not removed by regenning back to 100% HP.
  • Changes elemental weakness based on which TP move is used. Heals to current element, casting magic of opposing element triggers Blue.png and appears to cause Vivisection to be used a period of time after its intended time of 3 minute (about 30 seconds). Verification Needed
    • Icy Grasp Element: Ice --> weak to Fire Element: Fire
    • Flaming Kick Element: Fire --> weak to Water Element: Water
    • Flashflood Element: Water --> weak to Thunder Element: Thunder
    • Fulminous Smash Element: Thunder --> weak to Earth Element: Earth
    • Eroding Flesh Element: Earth --> weak to Wind Element: Wind
  • Any appropriate magic will trigger Blue.png. Even using Threnody or Elemental Magic from a subjob will do the job.
  • Gains Damage Resistance for each 30 seconds of time he remains unprocced after changing elements. For example if he uses Flaming Kick he will gain -5% DT (exact percentage unclear) if he is not procced with a water spell or skillchain. If he changes again he will retain the -5% DT.
  • Vivisection seems to be used every 3 minutes, by healing Degei with either the wrong Elemental Magic or skillchain and failing to proc Blue.png in time. Higher heal amounts may need more Blue.png to prevent Vivisection.
    • After he uses Vivisection it will retain the Damage taken - from not proccing and will have no weakness, you will have to quickly feed it tp so it uses one of the above 5 again. Verification Needed
    • In the event of a wipe and recover. The first move used by Degei will be Vivisection.
    • Wrong skillchains heal Degei. It is best practice to avoid using skillchains entirely in a melee zerg, removes the risk of an accidental wipe.
