Further Notes
  • Is actually the floating head of an Iron Giant, not a full Iron Giant. As such, this fight is not the same as fighting a regular Iron Giant monster such as Ironclad Severer. For instance, it has standard physical attacks, not the special AoE variety that Iron Giants have.
  • Despawns instantly if it goes passive, similar to VNMs.
  • Susceptible to Slow and Addle. Susceptible to Stun, but may be resistant to certain forms of it, such as Violent Flourish.
  • In order to solve what the possible weakness trigger factors and conditions are, efforts are being made to centralize data capture in a standardized format. If you have some personal experience in achieving any particular weaknesss on any NM, please feel free to refer to the [Weakness Discussion segment of the Category: Abyssea Discussion tab] and add your data to that form at the bottom of that segment.
