Kurma

From FFXI Wiki


General Notes
  • Exploitable Weakness: Damage multipliers increase when Kurma takes damage or utilizes certain TP moves.
    • Magical damage multiplier for damage dealt to Kurma increases by 0.1 each time magical damage is successfully dealt (including Enspells and Rune Enchantment) and very significantly (possibly 3x) whenever Harden Shell is used.
      • Kurma has notably high magic evasion, but will take higher than normal damage even on partial resists if the multiplier is sufficiently boosted. Thunder- and Wind-based magic are the least resisted and Magic Accuracy boosting effects are recommended.
    • Aqua Breath seems to raise the slashing damage multiplier.
    • Earth Breath seems to raise the piercing damage multiplier.
    • Any accumulated damage multipliers will reset whenever Tortoise Song is used.
