| Re: Fenrir Prime Solo On my first try, I used Dia II because I was worried he would absorb Bio damage, and that the DoT would end up healing him (I recall seeing this effect on those Draugar mobs in Arrapago Reef). When I saw that Bio II indeed inflicted damage upon landing (even if it was rather low), I opted to stick with it for the higher damage per tic it has over Dia II. The combination of Bio II and Poison II on a mob is comparable to landing an unresisted Blizzard III every 2 minutes (at least for an Elvaan anyway lol).
As far as I know, the added effects of Dia and Bio are static once landed on a mob, reguardless of the initial damage it does. This explains how low level goblin can land the full Dia effect (5% defense down, 1 damger per tic, for 60 seconds) on a level 75 character with magic defense bonus gear and traits, high light elemental resistence, and Shell IV, even if it lands for 0 initial damage.
The DoT from Bio does vary however, with higher levels of Dark Magic Skill. |
