  • Wind Staff Effect Sleep?

    Hey I was curious if the wind staff effected my sleep spells, I have all the elemental staves and when i was going through my spells I noticed that sleep was wind, would wind staff have an effect on sleep resists or length or is it only for nukes?

    The Staff will help increase the chance of putting the mob to sleep which is why RDM have one when going to fight Maat.
    People look at the world and think why, i look at the world and think why not.

      According to Allakhazam, and my personal memory, Sleep has the Darkness Attribute not Wind.

      Where did you hear Wind Staff affected sleep?
      There is no knowledge without experience.

        Most RDM's use Wind staff to increase the damage that their strongest spell, Aero III, does, in addition to cutting down the resists that they have to deal with at the same time. From what I can tell, Dark staff effects the resist rate of sleep, not wind staff.

          Well strongest spell for Maat fight, not strongest spell. Strongest is Thunder III.

            Strongest is thundaga3.

            Sleep is dark based.

            And reason why RDM have wind staffs are because Gravity and Silence are wind based.

              That would be the implied meaning in what I said. I guess I forgot to mention that I was specifically responding to the circumstance of the RDM Maat fight.

                How come it's green by the sleep spells instead of black if it's based off dark?

                  I don't know what's wrong with your system, but for everyone else, the icon beside the sleep spells is black, and nowhere near green....

                      I dunno what you're looking at but I'm looking at my spell list right now and the icon is black. >_> Sleep has always been dark based and brd's lullaby has always been light based. This is how it's always been for everyone and it's never been different. Either you're getting confused with the lists or something is corrupt in your system.

                        Nana is correct, which is why you have BRDs sleep things that are drk-resistant under all circumstances where it is possible.

                          ...this topic is two years old. For the love of little puppies, please stop necroposting..

                          I'm sure by now most people understand that black dots next to spells mean it's Dark magic and is therefore affected by Dark Staff/Pluto Staff, not Wind Staff.

                              They were talking about Red Mage, not Black.
