Worst rdm (Midgardsormr) [video]

[YnNeB]

I had a very good pt in quicksand caves, but the rdm had to go, the leader (kenzaki) found a rdm to replace him. His name is Poetic.

I didnt record the next fight, but i dead because the pld had no mp to hold agro, and whm pld and melee were all in orange. If i didnt spam bliz 2 and thun 2 i think we would all be dead, except Poetic...

I've seen worse... but yea, this video goes to all the people who said rdm is easy... pimpin aint easy guys watch it...

[DrSerpico]

Errrrr

I didn't watch to close, I just placed that guy in the "duh" category when I saw him meleeing vs. AoE silence mob.

Did he even para - slow - dia - gravi? Or did you agree to take gravi? I didn't catch him refreshing much either.

And managing to fire his WS richt in the skillchain even after being warned that the other melee was ready?

Jeebus... I'm glad I'm not even half as bad as that. That's actually NASTY. I hope he gets better fast ^^.

[Grodo]

omg i would kick him fast

cause he didnt cast refresh on pld im sorry but he is a dumbass and used WS - - why did he do that

how long did he stay in the party before they kick him or u quit the party

[YnNeB]

I think the only debuff he did was Silence.

I disbanded after the next fight because i died, and i wanted to go sleep

I think they kicked him right after

[Skygto]

I just partied with you literally 1 minute ago

[YnNeB]

Tarutaru power !

did i do a good job ?

monk at this level isnt easy because you cant make distortion, but we did a good job without it ^^

Impaction

[LionhartPLD]

yeah hes dumb.

but also how come you're casting all ice spells vs. antica. im no blm but im pretty sure they're weak to wind . and I see you do have aero2 . whats up with that o.o;;

also looks like the RDM using his WS caused a distortion SC o.o;; but still RDM shouldnt be melee :/

[YnNeB]

I tried all elemental and the air was resisted so i thought that was not antican's weakness :/ i will try again


ty for the tip :3

[Sadeira]

anticans are dark elementa actually. so their weakness is light. so umm...pld has to spam banish

there really aren't any nukers who have enough divine to cast damage and make it actually hurt. so you just have to make do with what you've got

just because they drop Dark crystals that does NOT mean their weakness is Light. Anticans indeed r weak to Wind, and that's their only weakness.

another example would be Bombs. given ur theory their weakness would be Water, but their weakness is actually Fire.

lol @ that video, he wasn't responding to what you typed.. poor guy, he just needs practice.. and tutoring. someone should direct him to this forum

lol wtf. might as well throw pebbles at it.




ok heres basically hjow the elemental wheel works
you have two main catergories, Light and Dark.

Light = Fusion + Fragmentation
Fusion = Fire + Holy
Fragmentatoin = Wind + Thunder
Dark = Gravitation + Distortion
Gravitation = Earth + Darkness
Distortion = Ice + Water

If a mob is based off of light it's weakess will be one or more (or maybe none :O im not sure) of the following: Earth, Darkness, Ice, Water
If it is based off of Dark it's weakness will be Fire Holy Wind or Thunder.

So basically with you casting ice at antica it is either 1) neutral having no weakness or resistance to it
or 2) slightly resisting
Using wind spells should greatly increase your output vs. Antica. So try to get a Fragmentation skillchain and you'll be getting chain5+ easy if your members are good.

[YnNeB]

We werent able to do a detonation or a fragmentation ; ; (thf + sam), so we did distortion because blizzard II was my most powerful spell.

Well i tried wind spell against ant today, and well they are less resist than ice spell, but they did less dmg than ice spell ; ;

(but a nice aeroga II at 509 on a detonation skillchain)

[Angelhelix]

What an idiot! I better look out for him. Thanks for the heads up!!
