Absorptions:
The absorption numbers are the % of your damage that gets blocked. For example if an absorption is 60. 40% of that damage by that type will go through and 60% is absorbed. Bigger number= less damage. An absorption of 100 means no damage goes through, and a resistance of -100 mean the enemy takes 2x damage from that source. 0 means damage goes pretty much as is. Resistances: The resistance numbers is the buildup amount to trigger it. For example if a resistance is 100 you must deal 100 points of whatever aux buildup to trigger it. Note that these go down over time, and increase each time the effect procs.

Melee UsersGideon has access to both Sorceries and Incantations and he can deal a huge amount of damage in a very short time. However, as a magic-focused boss, he is also easily interrupted. His more advanced spells such as Rykard's Rancor and Comet Azur require some channeling and a well-timed heavy jump attack will cause him to plop facedown on the ground, interrupting his cast. Another weakness of Gideon is that nearly all of his attacks are projectiles that can be blocked by terrain and it just so happens there are several pillars conveniently placed on either side of his chamber. Make good use of these pillars, particularly for the same two spells noted above and you should be able to own this fight. One attack of note for melee players to watch out for is his Black Flame Ritual which comes out really quickly and can shred HP in mere seconds. Make sure you are dodging out of range of this as soon as you see the black flames. Magic and Ranged UsersMagic users who are specc'd for the Eternal Darkness spell can near-trivialize this fight. Eternal Darkness creates a void orb that sucks in all projectile-based enemy spells, effectively rendering them useless. This includes his all-powerful Comet Azur beam. Do note that the projectiles can still hit you if you are in their path as they travel towards the void so make sure you are casting Eternal Darkness on one side and moving a few steps away to the side as you pummel Gideon with your own spells. Eternal Darkness is not a fool-proof plan, however. It has a short duration and you should still be aware of Gideon's most dangerous attacks and use the pillars to your advantage. Tiche and you combined can stunlock him without bothering with Eternal Darkness. Adula's Moonblade can be effective, or use fast spells to compensate for his tendency to dodge.
