Dhartok

General Notes Found past Diaphanous Gadget #E in Sortie. Requires Ra'Kaznar Shard #E to access. Dhartok's attacks and TP moves will inflict a stacking Taint debuff, which will grow in potency with each successive effect. Taint cannot be removed by Erase, Esuna, Sacrifice, Poisona, Full Cure, or Benediction, but can be removed by Chakra with MNK main job only. After sufficient Taint or Poison stacks have been accumulated, Clobbering Wave and Noyade can deal lethal amounts of damage (8000+). Requires a Ra'Kaznar Metal #E to limit its abilities—while in possession, attacks will inflict Poison instead of Taint. As a result, poison can be removed by any usual sources, and doing so will reset the damage multiplier granted to the above. Absorbs Water damage, and will retaliate with severely increased damage after doing so. This includes magic and skillchain damage, including Darkness Skillchain. This does not include Hydro Breath from DRG wyvern Elemental Breath attacks. When Dhartok uses Cesspool, it gains an aura that grants it the ability to use two TP moves in a row. This aura lasts for a duration of 3 minutes. While this aura is active, a miasma cloud is placed at the location of Dhartok's target when the animation of the second TP move finishes. These miasma clouds inflict the effects of Drown and Magic Defense Down when the player is near them. The maximum number of clouds that can be created is 16. Cesspool can still be used once all 16 have been placed, however, no further clouds will be created. Possesses a cumulative damage resistance wall to repeated Weapon Skills, similar to that of Dynamis Divergence Wave 3's Mega Boss. See the Discussion page for published testimonials.
