Talk:Sea Serpent

Combat mechanics question So I know that the amount you fortify for is determined by your defense stat, but now I'm wondering if your defense might also play a role in the amount of damage that the serpent will do to the ship?  Currently, my fight tactic for the serpents is to use Dante to fortify (+20defense is awesome), and then use Vanquish to attack. But the question is whether or not the defense penalty from Vanquish is allowing the monster to do more damage, effectively canceling out my plan. Any thoughts guys? --Abezice 19:56, December 15, 2009 (UTC)
