My ingame hubby is a barb and gets killed all the time at the mq bosses. He is lvl 98. The mq bosses hit him hard and all the time. He gets hits from between 1 and 5 k. When we see other barbs fight the mq bosses they dont get hit that hard and that often. So we wondered is he doing something wrong. Anybody have any suggestions? Now we always need help from others. Its very frustrating

    They deal odd damage, it seems to scale with level, sort of like the towers in TW, but with a range like a Pataka.

    Best way to do it is spam heal/pots and drop the boss fast as you can, sorry :(
    I've quit excluding TW for my faction. But I still hang around to help out those who still enjoy the game under PWEs horrific handling and to have fun in the forums. b:cute
    #Shame about PWEs absolutely craptastic handling of the goons glitching. Remember kids, there's no punishment for breaking the rules here!#
    If you make a valid complaint, your thread will disapear. Don't post it here, post it on other sites where PW can't hide it.

    He is indeed doing something wrong.

    Im a normally equipped BM (mix of tt99 and self made stuff) and I don't even have 8k and no MQ bosses give me any kind of problem. The ones that seem to do the most damage are the one at the widow near Orchid Temple and the one near silver pool (which actually doesnt do much damage, but uses a hp debuff).

    He should probably just make sure he has enough spark and just invoke at them and when it goes off, heal with crab meats/whatever other hp pots if he has no clerics healing him.

    If u are a cleric though and can't keep him alive, then hmm.. b:surrender

    All mq bosses or mobs deal 1 damage melee to anyone, but if you're at range their damage is very hard to deal with. Stop being at ranged distance and be in melee range.

    I am a cleric but when he gets hit with 5 k every second there is no way i can heal him that fast. And its so random coz sometimes he gets hit just once or twice and the next time he gets hit every second.

    This. He might be using a polehammer or something with a big range so boss magics him.
    Just get up right in bosses face. lol

    Either that guy is same that did the other post, or he's trolling it.

    People already gave their answers on it.

    If all of these don't work :

    - Using a wep with NO Range + 2.00 or such and just melee it

    - Beeing in tiger form and charmed with medium equips..(at ur lvl tt80-90 is far enough to kill those)

    - Using Invoke

    - using Solid Shield on genie or any other skills to help (Wind shield, ToP, even true emptyness)

    - Using any hp pots available

    If u still die after all that WITH a cleric healing you... Play another class..

    b:sweat Barb with 6k HP doesn't sound successful.

    Try MDef ornaments. >_>

    Read some guides...

    Seriously...

    Stop failing...

    If you are honestly having THAT much trouble, as a BARB, with such simple "bosses", you should follow this advice...

    Sorry to say but I hope ur not on my server.

    At 17k hp, if a barb can't tank a MQ boss, I don't want him in my squad for either delta, TT, SoT, Abadon, heck even Pole in bh69 seems he would give him trouble...b:surrender

    if lonely widow is killed slow and you have about 5 mobs + boss on you it can be a *****. Otherwise, there should never be a problem tanking 1 damage.

    Actually being 6k hp and dying to MQ bosses isn't as fail as barb with 17k hp dying to MQ bosses.

    loooool

    Strange. I've only been to one wedding in game, but the mobs and the boss. (Jealous ex) only hit me (on my cleric) for 1 damage point...for the brief few seconds that I actually got aggro. Maybe I got off lucky...

    I dont think they are refering to the wedding, they are refering to the marriage quest itself

    Is he using the Lunar Axes that have range +2 on them? Dragonhunts. I remember having that problem in Lunar with a boss spamming magic until I looked at the barbs weapon.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but MQ mobs don't do normal damage aside from that 1 HP damage you normally see them do.

    They do that 1 HP damage, and also remove a chunk from your current HP equal to a percentage of your max HP--so I've observed, so I think. I could be wrong, but that's what it looks like.


    Whether you're the tank of tanks, or "poorly equipped" (whatever that means), the outcome will probably be the same if you let one of those mobs have its way with you.
    The one and only.

    Some of them cast a debuff on you similar to soul infect. This really shouldn't make a difference though, lol. Started doing the MQ quest at 90 with MUCH less HP than 17k and I've never had an issue.

    i did mq on bm before he hit 95... used lvl60 fists and he had 6khp? i never had a problem killing the bosses... a 17k hp barb having problems is sad and with a cleric failing... i think some invisible guy is eating his hp....it cant be the boss.....

    my barb could solo 1-1 drum at 90 with 11k hp..just cost a few crabs and ToPs

    anyways cleric tip.... if u cant heal enough ur supposed to BB... dont that reduce damage by close to half? =P

    I found out quite a while back that if you stay really close to the mq bosses they deal physical, which is always 1 damage.
