Pektite

Signature Ability | Element I

Magical creatures embodying the elements. Pektites have incredibly high **DEF**, making magical abilities your best bet to defeat them. There are 4 different type of pektites (one for each element). Because Pektites heal from elemental damage matching their type, they will frequently include themselves as targets of their spells, causing them to deal damage, heal themselves, and gain a damage boost from their **Adaptive Affinity** reaction, so be careful when approaching them.

## Spawn Locations

Below is a list of locations which can have Pektites in their patrols. Some spawns depend on which extra enemies Difficulty setting you're using.

* Alpine Woods (Date, Strawberry on Elite difficulty setting)
* Azure Fields (Blueberry, Lemon, Strawberry on Elite)
* Bardvig Aqueduct (Blueberry)
* Claret Woods (Blueberry)
* Devilsblood Ascent (Strawberry)
* Drakesmouth Seaway (Lemon)
* Fetid Depths (Date)
* Gelligh Foothills (Blueberry, Date on Extra difficulty setting)

## Notable Loot

After finishing the story mission in Mountain Temple, Blueberry and Strawberry Tsunymphites are guaranteed to drop **Adamant Ingots** when poached with Collect Pelt or Collect Trophy while Date and Lemon Tsunymphites are guaranteed to drop **Godwood** when poached. Keep in mind that due to their high **DEF**, ability to heal themselves with elemental damage, and ability to sacrifice themselves with **Coalesce**, actually managing to poach them can be quite difficult. Liberal use of Debuffs can prevent them from using their abilities and lower their hp enough to get a kill with the necessary abilities.

## Bzil Class

This version of Pektite is used for Bzaro and enemy Bzil. This class can be obtained by collecting 5 Pektite Essences, which drop from defeated Pektites while Bzaro is in the party.

Resistances

### Notes

**Elemental Mastery** does not reduce the target's elemental resistance if it is over 100. If the target has between 0 and 100 resistance, it will lose 50. If the target has less than 0 resistance, it will lose 25. Resistance cannot be brought lower than -150.

**Focus Fire** can be used with multi-target spells from other Monster Classes, as long as they don't have a range of Self (Canopic Jar from Mummified is also excluded). The range of Focus Fire will override the range of the original spell. Because Focus Fire is a skill, but also requires a spell to be selected, both **Cripple** and **Mute** will prevent use of the ability.

**Adaptive Affinity** triggers if you are healed by elemental damage (when you have over 100 resistance to that element), despite the description only referencing triggering on damage. A character with this counter can even activate the counter by including themselves in the area effect of their elemental spells.
