Finally beat Maat today... on my 16th try 
I had lost the previous 15 times because almost every time I had fought him, Maat would use Asuran Fists and I would die, usually when he has less than 50% life left after I've aero3'd him a few time.
I had thought that I was the most unlucky RDM since creation because people keep telling me that which Weapon Skill Maat uses in completely random, and that I was just unlucky that Maat decided to use Asuran on me 15 times in a row. However, "luck" was not at fault here.
Shortly after the fight, I heard a "rumor" that if you spend too long fighting Maat (one figure I heard is longer than 6 minutes), Maat will activate Asuran 100% of the time. Based on my experience, I'd say this is more than just a "rumor" and is in fact some algorithm programmed into the RDM Genkai 5. I like to go slow in my fights, and I usually use the Aero3/Sleep2 --> drink super-ether method. Super-ether's take a while to drink and there's a no-casting lag period after you've used it, so it would usually be about 5 minutes into the fight when I'd get Maat down to 50% health. Shortly afterwards, Maat would activate his Asuran Fists and beat me to a pulp.
So how did I win this time? I was lucky. I slept him 3 times in a row after he activated Asuran. I had chain-spell on by then and was able to cast the 8 aero3's necessary to win. I was amused to discover that being slept does not interrupt Maat's Asuran. The WS would just continue after he wakes up.
But anyways, I'm glad I finally got over this hump and can finally get in some lvl-up pt's. I haven't level up'd in 3 months
Just thought I'll share this bit of info about Maat and Asuran Fist with you guys. There is a lot of truth in saying that doing the Maat fight faster is better. Knowing this ahead of time would have certainly helped me, but I don't care now because I already won ^^.
Oh BTW, Asuran can hit up tp 6 times if you didn't know already. I once died on the 6th hit... And sorry if this info had already been posted elsewhere in another thread. I have been reading posts about RDM genkai 5 here and haven't read anything about it.
