The information on "Peircing only" damage for this NM is not true. Monk Hand-to-hand does damage, I know this from first hand experience.--Ramathorne 02:28, 9 January 2007 (EST)

Has anyone experimented with other blunt-type damage? Would be nice to hear from a SMN who has tried Shiva/Ifrit LV70 Blood pacts (Hand-to-hand damage) as well as Titan/Ramuh (Blunt damage). Also, i believe if blunt damage is found to damage as well, the "Peircing only" in this article can be changed to "immune to slashing."--Ramathorne

Tried sending local crawlers as bst which I believe are blunt damage (correct me if I'm wrong) and it was immune to it. So unless crawlers happen do do slashing, it is safe to assume it is immune to blunt damage. Monks doing damage must have been using Formless Strikes. --Lorcas 17:06, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

I fought this today as MNK75/NIN37 and it does indeed take DMG from H2H (blunt). I tried formless strikes and the DMG actually went down. I did not try Vampiric Claws (slashing). User:Ikonic/Sig 20:36, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

It only takes damage from Piercing weapons and H2H weapons. H2H weapons are NOT Blunt, they are in a class of their own namely: H2H :D. - Minikowalski of Bahamut

Impossible for BST to kill. All possible pets in zone do 0 damage do to immunity. 6:24, 8 August 2008


Today in Nyzul Isle, I used Warp Cudgel and killed it with Judgment ws. --AstralDream 31 May 2010

Testimonials[edit]

  • Soloed with medium difficulty by a 90MNK/45DNC using an Eva set up. It hit for between 130-200 damage and it's Incinerate hit for anywhere from 100 damage to 800 damage. It's accuracy was not too high but high enough to land consecutive hits.--Lacas 13:27, April 21, 2011 (UTC)
  • Soloed as 99 BST/DNC using LuckyLulush. Engaged whilst bored waiting for earth weather for trial, saw Lucky doing 0 damage, looked up info and saw it was immune to the damage types. Tried Whirl Claws, which did do 400-500 damage. Let it chase my pet around the zone while I spammed Fight on other mobs until pet tp was 100% - used whirl claws again. Rinse and repeat. Took about 45 minutes or so and a couple of stacks of cheap pet food. I do not recommend this strategy unless you really bored and want a "challenge". --Randall Floyd 06:03, February 19, 2012 (UTC)
  • Solo-99BST/DNC: While trying to build up my Imperial Standing Points while waiting for weather for my Trial and not paying attention, I sent my pet after this mob. I wasn't really paying too much attention and noticed LuckyLulush wasn't doing any damage, and neither was I. I switched to DapperMac (as I keep all my Jug pets handy in Satchel/Sac/Inv) and I equipped my Warp Cudgel to finish the job quickly. The fight was a breeze after that and I was never in any danger. *Edit: Then I almost missed my weather typing this up... >.< --User:Demanti/Sig
