We just fought this guy. Tanked from the back with pld/nin x2. There were things i noticed. First, as rng, it seemed like it was resisting melee. Not like melee does low damage, but it seemed it would randomly do half, even 25% damage, like it was getting resisted as with blm spells. It would also open and close its wings. With wings closed it seemed to give me 25% damage more. I wouldnt say that it gets a defense bonus, as sometimes i still got full damage WS and melees. With wings open, melee damage was generally resisted less, but it had a huge amount of auto regen with wings open. it went from 94% to 100% in 5 minutes with us still damaging it. Incredibly hard fight.

Used Soul Douse, cone doom, can be avoided. Sinister Wing, uses left wing in a knockback move. Dexter Wing, uses right wing in a knockback move. Dark Star, looks to be a meteor move. Dancing Tail, is a spike flail. uses blm tier 3-agas uses rdm debuff spells --Cecellia 21:53, March 23, 2010 (UTC)

If he uses a different move-set from Wyrms, should we really classify him as one, instead of just leaving him in the dragon family and giving him a different classification? Aok1313 17:26, March 24, 2010 (UTC)

I second that. Looks more like an ancient wyrm >.> --Zatias 12:36, March 25, 2010 (UTC)

This mob is not immune to stun, just highly resistant. My group got a few through. Also, elemental magic is... weird. I managed to get a few spells in for 400-500 damage, but most resisted heavily despite 330 elemental skill and Elemental Seal. I imagine it has some sort of high immunity to a particular element of elemental magic that changes for some unknown cause. Or I'm just awesome. But ES nuke shouldn't be resisted when normal aren't always. -Bee, Kujata, Mar 30.
