What elements throws you off.I find earth throws me off the worst as it more or less interrupts me more with the stun I get from it.I don't how to counter it well I just wait it out and cast well spring or if above 50%IH.

It was Gang Leader who were doing this to me.

    I really dislike metal mobs. It usually takes me an extra hit or two than when fighting other mobs, which means they usually get an extra hit of two on me. This becomes a problem with physical metal mobs especially. b:surrender
    It pretty much doubles my repairs.

    Yea and I agree about the earth. It stuns a lot more than the other elements I think. b:shocked

    Metal mobs, especially those with either Increased Defense (reduced cyclone + plume shot damage), Increased Life (roughly doubles the number of hits to kill, hence double the mp used), Increased Magic Resistance (reduced cyclone damage, though I pretty much just use plume shot to kill metal mobs...), roughly in order of annoyance from most to least. Earth isn't too bad, though it usually interrupts the second attack in a chain with the stun after which there aren't any more stuns as far as I can tell.

    Definetly metal based mobs are the most annoying... specially if they are metal AND magic resistance mobs... those tick me off b:angry

    The absolute worst mobs are metal melee mobs..you would think they are common and not a big deal but they arent...and when you have to kill them..it sucks major.

    Metal Melee Phys mobs = more pdef so like plume dmg and metal vs metal magic = less dmg.

    So ya...suckage

    I'd say metal and no element especially those that attack with long or close range attack power I'm a cleric especially set for healing and buffing not fighting plume shots only lvl 5 as well as cyclone I would lvl those up more but I'm also using up just to repair armour,weps,pots,never did like soloing with cleric especially against those tauroc commanders for the frags at lvl 45 it hurts like hell getting hit with phys defense since I have more magic res.
    If it comes to healing and buffing up for players I'm well easy to manage that but fighting also not so much. As a cleric I tend to stay out of harms way at any case possible so I use a little fun time with my skills against the commanders first i hit with thunderball (lvl 1) then cyclone slows them down,plume shot twice,run a ways hit with cyclone again,and repeat the pattern makes less damage for me to take and if i get 1/4 dead then I quickly get out of attack range lol.

    Is your name based on a jack's mannequin song?

    Also, I agree with what you say fully. Damn metal mobs, especially when they have "increased defense."

    I just skip those.

    What I meant is that metal is the only mobs that we do reduced dmg to, so how is it possible that other mob elements are harder..... Mysti if u have reduced metal defense it would be even worse.

    That's strange, i think i've never seen an armor part missing Metal def >,<

    Btw is right, many 1-3star armor parts dropped by mobs often miss 1 or more elemental rsistances, and Earth is always the first missing. This is probably the reason why some hates Earth mobs.

    Just take more care of what you wear b:chuckle
