I was thinking the same thing. I mean I saw talk about Magellan dying and while there's a decent chance of it happening. The man has yet to start fighting lmao.
I always followed the philosophy we built on wurp en perhaps before that. Trying for such high-grade fruits needs a decent amount of challenge. Not as extreme as WURP NPCs, some of them were really unfair to fight and or win against.
Balance is key. But if there is one crew who has a better advantage against poison DF it's the Spada pirates imo. Many of their abilities are tuned against poison.
