Transcendent Scorpion

From FFXI Wiki
General Notes
  • Below 50% HP, gains access to several additional TP moves including Earthbreaker (40' severe AoE damage and length Stun)
    • Exploitable Weakness: The damage effect (but not the Stun effect) of Earthbreaker is completely negated as long as at least one debuff is present on Transcendent Scorpion at the time of use.
    • Note that all debuffs will be reset on Transcendent Scorpion after any TP move is utilized (a message will be displayed in the log stating "The spring has returned to your step."). To negate the powerful damage this ability can inflict, quickly reapplying debuffs (Dia or Bio spells are most appropriate as they cannot be resisted) is important for the second half of the battle.
