Talk:Death
From FFXIclopedia, the free Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia
Can anyone clarify if all the Dynamis bosses (starter cities) can use death. I remember a MNK in my LS dieing to Death not too long ago when the Goblin Statue casted it on him. --Gatsby 01:12, 14 August 2006 (EDT)
Yes, they can. --Ichthyos 01:59, 14 August 2006 (EDT)
Enfeebling / Dark Magic Spell?
It would be my guess that this would be a Dark Magic spell... I don't think there's any evidence saying that it is or not... it's just my gut. Does it really seem like Enfeebling magic? --Waluigi 16:55, 19 August 2006 (EDT)
I honestly don't know how it got classified as an enfeebling spell... there's no way to know. --Chrisjander 18:12, 19 August 2006 (EDT)
Well Raise is Healing Magic not Enhancing Magic so maybe Death is the antonym to that and therefore Elemental Magic rather than Enfeebling Magic. Random thoughts - Hiachi 18:32, 19 August 2006 (EDT)
I'm not sure Elemental is the oposite of Healing Magic... all magics seem to be in a realm all their own. If you want to try to compare them, then Divine Magic and Elemental would be analogs to each other, one being white magic and one being black. I prefer to think of them all as separate, because you could start comparisons all over the place, comparing all the magic types to each other, and not really comming to a conclusion. All you really need to know about the differences between magic is that there is White Magic, and Black Magic (ignore brown and blue magic), and that one based on the divine, and the other is based off the elements. --Chrisjander 19:03, 19 August 2006 (EDT)
Holy Water?
What's the confirmation that Holy Water stops Death as cast by mobs that can cast it?
I've seen it work versus Doom, an entirely separate status effect, but since Death is instantaneous I can hardly believe it would work. --Vervane 22:09, 20 November 2006 (EST)
I think you just answered your own question. --Chrisjander 00:15, 21 November 2006 (EST)
Then I suppose we can dispose of the misinformation in the article that Holy Water blocks the Death spell? --Vervane 01:41, 21 November 2006 (EST)
Casting Time
The recent expansion of the article includes that the casting time for this spell is 5 seconds, it seems much quicker to me, almost instantaneously. --CharitwoTalk 17:43, 5 July 2007 (CDT)
I think it depends if the mob has a Fast Cast trait or not. --Poof 23:59, 30 July 2007 (CDT)
