Talk:Nosferatu

From FFXIclopedia, the free Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia

The name "Nosferatu" precedes Vampire: The Masquerade. I think it's more likely that SE drew on the older source for inspiration, rather than on the White Wolf game. Hala_Basinah 23:46, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Seems immune or highly resistant to dispel. Confirm? Mabon 02:54, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Cure V?

I don't ever remember this mob casting Cure V (I've fought him before with a ZNM LS), a vampyr is undead, so it should take damage from cure spells cast on it, right? I've never seen an undead creature casting cure spells either. If anything, an undead creature that heals itself typically uses drain or drain-type TP moves (like Grave Reel from ghosts, or Blood Saber from skeletons). --Sabishii 16:35, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Fought it last night, definately did not cast cure.
However, I noticed some strange behaviour:
1-Summoned mobs pop on top of the person with hate, NOT the NM. Nosferatu will also always follow up a summon with a TP attack (Usually Bloodrate or Decollation).
2-It seems that when the NM has lost all hate, any debuffs wear off, unless it's just coincidence that I would cast Bio2 (being dark based is irrelevant), zone out and back in, and it would be at 100%.--Nynja 01:53, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Fought it and it cast Cure V on itself multiple times doing 16 points of damage. Funniest thing I've ever seen. IccarusofAsura 06:24, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Dropped two Labrys on a recent run. Beanie 07:51, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

From what I've seen, whenever he summons his mobs regularly they seem to stick to single target WSs. Bats will use jet stream, Fomor will use barbed crescent, Hounds will use dirty claw. Afterward, Nosferatu generally uses Decollation. However, when Nosferatu uses Astral Flow, all of his pets will use AoE WSs. Bats will use Turbulence, Fomor will use Foxfire, Hounds will use Methane Breath; Nosferatu will also use Wings of Gehenna at this point. Besides Astral Flow, I don't recall seeing him use Wings of Gehenna throughout 4 fights. --Venlo 23:51, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
