Qingzi failed b/c of me?

I have been doin Qingzi with my cleric w/out having IH maxed out. . .but I had higher level tanks. Maybe the barbs build was too low or as previously mentioned his equipment sucked.

There's a simple explanation for this occurrence. The barb was clearly a full magic build with no equipment wielding broken weapons.

How can you prove this?

Physical classes usually have **** magic defense. So with Qingzi dishing out magic attacks every now and then, the barb is going to suffer a lot. The damage dealt could be anywhere 500~800, depending on the barb's equipment and level of tiger form. If he didn't upgrade to proper wear and skills his level, then it is most likely his problem.

What I suggest is maxing out your wellspring surge, because although IH stacks the effect takes a while and by then your barb might have gone off the far end. Wellspring on the other hand is an instant heal. If you see the barb's hp going into danger zone, you could spam wellspring until it's above the danger zone and then spam IH.

Random squads mean very varied players and levels, which could mean you're the highest level in your squad, the BM/barb has low hp, or they have **** equipment etc. In situations like these you often need to adapt your healing skills to suit the needs of the circumstances.

Before going into battles you could take a look at the appointed tanker's equipment to have a rough gauge of how much heals he or she would need. Essentially you need to know the nature of the bosses to decide who's tank so the cleric's life would be easier. In Qingzi's case wizards are the best tanks, since they have high magic defence and a skill called "stone barrier" which raises their earth resistance, which is Qingzi's element.

The weap might have been the problem, but at that level I imagine the difference would be too minimal to matter. Btw, if you have a level 53 wizzie in squad, let him tank Qingzi. Guaranteed it'd be much faster and safer since wizzies have those nice shields that cut damage down.

...This is assuming they have it leveled. Sooooooooooo many newbie Wizzies level the Water Shield instead cause it restores MP. X_X;;;

OK Im not sure if this is a diff., but at 46 w/ a platinum charm I soloed Quingzi. So obviously there is a prob. w/ the barb. Of course, its not the equip. sometimes, its the stats that back the equip. If he was a squishy Barb, Duh there's ur prob. He might have to much Dex. as I found out later myself.

It's also fairly simple just using Multiflavor Jiaozi if you can get the timing needed to cancel him down. With decent/up-to-date gear (or wines), the only problem mobs in the rest of the instance should be Lanterns and Cairn's Guards (Which you should only have to kill 5 of combined if you're careful), and can be done with the pots that drop and maybe a bit of meditation/genie skills. Or Sutra... b:dirty

I solo healed qingzi for my fb at the start of the server and had no problems. I vote the barb had **** gear or wasn't built for tanking.

you know, Qingzi could have just gotten mad from everyone lvling quickly, so he decided to pwn for a change. I mean, it has to get lonely seeing everyone pass you by b:sad

Hmm you said you waited 5 seconds to re cast IH? It shouldn't take that long for the barb to get argo from quinzi...I say spam IH before he gets argo, as you've done AND just IH as soon as you see he has argo(don't wait lol). And spam it as much as you can :x If he still dies well you know it really isn't you.

Some people feel that with a cleric in squad, they shouldn't use HP pots which is wrong in my opinion. We can only help as much as they can help themselves. Don't get me wrong, I spam my behind off in any runs I go on, but its just annoying to hear "Cleric I have no HP pots, heal me," when I'm in a friend's squad ~.~

I also think the barb was just fail.
I healed at my FB29 (at lvl29) with just a lvl34 Barb and no Problems.
I also helped at lvl29 with an FB39 of a friend with just a lvl40 barb, also worked like a charm.

mmm yeah I agree it works-clerics keeping tanks alive.

Maybee it was the famous Arcane Armor Barb?

mmm i think that in this case, it would of actually helped the barbs def lol cause I think that quinzi's attack is magic and not mellee o_o (I could be wrong =P)

EDIT: mmm yeah thanx for the correction. Wasn't thinking about the up close and personal barb to quinzi ~.~ which would be melee. Meh he probably was failed.

Actually, he's a mix of both Physical and Magic. And has other tricks to boot at certain milestones in his HP.

yup, melee attacks if your in his face of him
magic attacks if your at range
sometimes he uses magic even if your in his face thou
and he stuns you sometimes aswell
