I have yet to find the time to test myself, so I ask.

Is Future Fabulous better choice than the +100 resist atma when taking dmg?

Future Fabulous is a MUST for any NM that causes heavy magic damage.

Way better than ANY resist OR magic evasion atma.

Is 50 MDB better than 100 magic evasion?
Yes
That's what I was thinking, thanks.

If you're fighting a NM that needs magic dmg protection, you'll need more elemental resist than any reasonable job/atma combo can provide. Even if you get -100, barspell and carolx2 the results will not be as consistent as a strait up 50 MDB bonus. At the most its situational but its hardly debatable.

Resist is always a roll of the dice.

MDB is always constant.

No it's not. Shell alone is enough to survive any magic attack from any NM inside abyssea.

100 barspell? (|Too Weak|)

Besides, the only NM I've ever needed magic EVA atmas for in Abyssea is Tunga. It's not necessary for anything else :|

Not necessary for Tunga either if you lock his 2hr.

I've had disgorge hit full for 3000+ with over 240 earth resist on Glav with shell. Status effects are one thing, you need Magic evasion for that but if you're talking raw dmg you're always better with MDB.

Pank in aby-ule comes to mind on where that Atma is applicable.
