Passive Traits
Deathsinger:

• Approximately 400k health on VD.
• When all Fomor are dead, loses the ability to cast magic^[1], and takes considerably increased damage.^[2]
• Immune to Silence and Sleep. Susceptible to Stun. Other debuffs (including Addle/Nocture) land normally.

Fomor:

• Approximately 220k health each on VD.
• With the exception of Aegis and Gjallarhorn, all Fomor possess the hidden effect of relic weapons doing 2.5x normal damage on auto attacks.^[3]
• Each Fomor named after a Relic weapon that has an Additional Effect on auto attacks possesses that effect on their auto-attacks. For example, Mandau has Additional effect: Poison and Gungnir has Additional effect: Weakens defense. Excalibur's Additional Effect: Damage varies with HP is particularly lethal on any difficulty. It is physical, slashing damage and can be absorbed by Utsusemi shadows.
• With the exception of Aegis and Gjallarhorn, all Fomor possess the ability to use their relic weapon skills, and will use them exclusively. These weapon skills can skillchain, and grant the user Relic Aftermath^[4]. For Amanomurakumo in particular, this means that they won't stop using Tachi: Kaiten back to back until they're dead.
• Each Fomor will possess the passive traits of their respective job (Evasion Bonus on Mandau, for example).
• Gungnir's use of Geirskogul grants them a potent Shock Spikes effect that can induce a lengthy (~8 second) stun.
• Susceptible to Lullaby.
• For the purposes of Monster Correlation, the Fomors in this battlefield are not counted as Undead^[5] and are not valid targets for Sepulcher.^[6]
• Aegis has ~63% Magic Damage taken down, Excalibur has 50% Physical Damage Taken down.^[7]
