Physical Res Down

Physical Res Down is a in Xenoblade Chronicles X.

Overview
When a player or enemy is inflicted with Physical Res Down, their attribute resistance to physical attacks is decreased. For example, if an enemy has 40 Physical Res as a base, Physical Res Down I would temporarily reduce it to 25, making it so damage is only reduced by 25% instead of 40% when they take physical damage.

On foot, Physical Res Down can be prevented via the Armor augment Resist Physical Res Down. While in a Skell, Physical Res Down can be prevented via the Skell Armor augment Resist.PHYS-DOWN.

It's possible to extend the duration of Physical Res Down using Extend Physical Res Down on foot, and TimeEx.PHYS-DOWN while in a Skell.

Other things that inflict Physical Res Down
Melee s on foot can inflict Physical Res Down if the augment Melee: Physical Res Down is equipped. Skells should use M-Auto.PHYS-DOWN instead.
