    Oh come on, I'm 70 and I still haven't done the quest for Empyrean Slither.
    If you disregard what I say because of who I am or because of the contents of what I said, you are a fool.

    Everyone wants to be different, but when you're different you wish you were normal.

    the reason why manta is so hard to find a squad for is because the usual tanks (barbs and BMs) arnt the greatest for it because of the magic damage he does wizzys, clerics and venos(maybe) can tank them but it takes alot out of the mp they have personally im a wiz who has tanked it and i killed 3/4 of a silver mp charm i had and it takes about 30mins to do it....but good luck finding a squad

    Get a Level 70+ Cleric, And a 61 Wizard to heal the Cleric. Keep the one who needs it just within range so that they don't get hit with AoE. Its simple really. No charm needed if they know what they're doing.

    Archers can tank him just fine as well. I've done it with just me & a cleric in her 30s though extra DD did come in a little later in the fight. It is a looong fight since you have a damage penalty but if you're having issues getting a squad together then this seems like a perfectly valid option.

    Also to note I am pure so no added Vit was needed to tank him. Just make sure you stay in the air away from his DoDs.

    The veno would have to have a LOT put in magic and no vit, but sadly, I find it's better to put some in vit for those times when you either steal aggro from your pet, or your pet gets killed, so it makes them less effective against the mag. bosses.

    Another problem is that mantavip is literally in the middle of no where. I mean, if he was near more people, say near the swamps, then getting faction help wouldnt be so hard.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    MantaVip is tough unless you have people in squad of the right type and know what they are doing.

    My Arcane Veno tanked Mantavip at lvl 68 with a lvl 78 Cleric spam Healing, this was for a faction member. I had over 65% Magic def (unbuffed) at that time and decent HP. My Nix couldn't survive the AOEs so I ended up doing all the DD and it must have taken at least 20 minutes nonstop casting. So yeah it really eats up time and charms.

    On top of that you often come across problems with squad members not staying out of the AOE range and getting killed.

    My advice is get into a good faction that is willing to help you out.

    Mantavip is so easy ... (well at my lvl, and prolly because I did it so many times, lol).
    PM me when I'm online ( and not AFK in catshop) and I'll fly up there to help. Cleric is welcome but not needed, I can pot my way through.
    I kill Manta prolly once every 2 days, depending if I'm hitting Misfortune or not for WQ. I always ask around if someone needs it and there is always 1-2 ppl around waiting for a lucky strike.

    could charm solo it if you can't find a cleric, at 81 he's not going to hit that hard
