genie build for mystic

Name: Absorb Soul
Info(Max Level)(PVE):
200% base magic damage
+ 4484.5
as physical damage
Info(Max Level)(PVP):
125% base magic damage
+2270
as physical damage


Its a little more mathematical, but gets to the point.


Magic Spell>cast by Magic Class>does Magic Damage & Physical Damage.

If something has Elemental Immunity it will not work - example: KunKun. But, otherwise it works great against something that does not happen to have very much Elemental Immunity.

If something has Physical Immunity, like the bosses in Caster's Nirvana, it still does Elemental Damage - just not very much.


Back on Topic:

Yeah! Tangling Mire! Its great in instances and TW.

Funny, I can hit the Haunted Headless in Aba for full damage. And that's a physical immune boss. So yea, physical damage, really?

And that description is from where? Because the ingame one is completely different.

Read either one of the guides in this forum, Xainou. The spell does Magic & Physical Damage, while bypassing most Defence buffs and levels. Its awesome!

Tangling Mire enhances it, and benefits any squad in total.

Why dont you just go try the spell out? Maybe you have a spare genie you can throw Tangling Mire on it and check that out too. b:cute

I just happened to see a high level Mystic and checked out his genie spells when Iwas trying to choose spells that might be good as a baby mystic. He had Adrenaline Surge, which sounded nice, but I later got rid of - and Tangling Mire, which I have kept and use a lot.

Oh yea right. Dated guides of course go over ingame descriptions. I forgot. b:chuckle

Yeah, and remember when you said it was IMPOSSIBLE for a Mystic to do 260K damage on the big pull in the room with the heads in FC?? LMAO! I remember. b:laugh


Its cool, dont understand the spell if you dont want too. Doesnt hurt me one bit. xD

Circumstances. That one important little detail you love to forget.

But err, keep going against every sane mystic on here. You got a reputation to defend after all.

Who are the 'sane' Mystics, Xainou? You and your need to throw out strange concepts like "True" Damage - which is neither Elemental nor Physical??

Every sane Mystic - that would be just you and Eoria with that theory right, since Bella hasnt chimed in yet, although Eoria answered a question put to Bella.

Yeah, dont understand your spells Xainou - I seriously dont care. Its fine! b:laugh

Maybe you should write a guide, updating AS with your 'true damage' garbage that isnt in the spell description either.

Go for it! b:chuckle

As for me, I'll stay with the 'Insane' Mystics, like Slim - the ones who dont put their foot in their mouth time and time again. +1.

You guys are so funny :O Just calm the...you know... down XD
Absorb Soul Does Physical Damage(Meaning if you have more phy res it will do less damage.)
But ignores Phy res buff/Def Lvls/blah blah blah.. It pretty much ignores everything.
Back to topic... I would personally get Extreme Poison Over Tangling Mire Because this is a GENIE build for ----> MYSTICS <---- It not only helps squad but ourselves too....

I got them both. I am a Mystic, and I dont just run in squads. In fact Ive spent more time soloing stuff than not. Ive used TM on a lot of mini-bosses, but I use AS alot too. Like that guy in OHT they give you as a daily. Used it more recently to help a cleric friend kill the Void & Crack mini bosses there too.

Im not saying everyone has to like it. Everyone will definately not like Frenzy. b:chuckle

But, they are 2 very good genie spells for Mystics - depending on how one choses to play the class. And, they were also 2 that had not yet been mentioned.

Your comment about the relationship between how much Phys Res someone has to how much damage AS does is rather interesting. Maybe one day someone will post more indepth information on that. My reason is because I prefer Phys Def/Res to HP in general. That's just me though - not saying everyone HAS to prefer Phys Def/Res to HP...generally speaking. b:chuckle

Happy Thanksgiving! b:pleased

''Deals Non-Elemental Damage equal to 125% of your Magic
Damage plus 2900 to players. Deals Non-Elemental Damage
equal to 200% of your Magic Damage plus 5800 to monsters.
Absorb Soul cannot cause a critical strike.''

That description come from Ecatomb, where your is from?? Cause I read no where on the skill ''Deal physical damage''.

Seriously I don't see where you see me insult you in this thread, I just said AS wasn't doing physical damage and you do a 4 pages of insults on Xainou and me, you spam (you double post many time), it's maybe time that you accept that you are not always right on everything as Xainou or me can be wrong sometime too, but no need to insult people on 4 pages cause you don't agree with us.

I havent insulted 'people' on 4 pages. I just didnt buy the arguement continuously put forth by your friends/alter egos Xainou & Eoria.

If you 'hello kittys' can dish it out, surely you can take it, am I right? b:chuckle

Keep reading the thread Bella. You will find where it does physical damage - IF you cant be asked to take 3 Mystics word for it. b:pleased

Maybe one day you will look over the guides in this forum, who knows? *shrugs and giggles*

I honestly cant believe you actually have used the spell, and never noticed for yourself. Oh well...

Thanks Venus. Im sure some folks will find your link most helpful in their quest for knowledge. b:thanks

Didnt you see where the Mod asked you stop flaming, Xainou?

@VenusArmanio, I dont think its fair to close the thread because of one persons 'issues'.

But, perhaps if they continue - you could just temporarirly 'close' the one person?

Ya know, give them a breather so they can take a moment to deal with themselves, maybe?

Anyway, just an idea. b:cute *shrugs*

That wasn't for Xainou, that was for everyone.

I made some testing and came to a conclusion.
Absorb Soul is a bleeding effect. Bleeding effects go through expel as well and as far as I know they bypass def levels and deal PHYSICAL damage.
So yes creeper + tangling mire (with str genie) increases the AS damage to nearly double as much.

Maybe it's just late and I'm bored, but I feel the need to go through this Mystic Forum and correct all this bad advice I see given to new mystics .

Does anyone actually play their class?

When would tangling mire or lysinging a creeper to stack with Absorb Soul be an efficient method of DD'ing in either PVP or PVE ever? trying to 1 shot some arcane in a secluded 1v1 when u have full chi and perfectly timed locks?

Ikr. In PvP you better have some freakish luck that your targets even stand still that long. And for PvE, geez, there's so many skills that deal way more damage on amps and sparks. b:shutup

I dont PvP except for TW, where I use the spell in squads. Squads are not just 1 Mystic. I also use it alone on tough to kill bosses like Blackhole Devourer in OHT. Been soloing him with it since level 90+. If you find either of those previously posted explanations stupid - then thats on you.

I play my class very well, and never look for 'troll approval' on an anonymous forum for vaildation. b:kiss

Why is something other than what someone else may have told someone to do bad advice?

Arent Mystics DD as well as healers? If so, dont they want a balance between ability to hurt and heal?

If people are bugging so much over tangling mire - why arent you bugging over Frenzy? b:chuckle

Thank you so much for this thread! To be honest, being new to PWI, I was a bit confused as to what to even do with my genie. Now I have a better understanding of how to use her. Thanks!
