<DIV>Thank you for advise...</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Exactly how do you tell what mob is a zerker and which one is a druid? Do you do it by parser or checking log or is there a faster way to do so?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks - Sterbe</DIV>

Copied from my response to another thread...There isn't a perfect way to the best of my knowledge but there are a couple of things you could do:1) Look at the buffs on the mob. This will often identify the mob if it is a fighter class. Unfortunately, not all mobs have up any buffs to use this tool on.2) Erudite Vision. Mobs give off an aura to erudites that will tell you if it's a fighter / mage / etc but not individual classes. I've never played an Erudite to know for sure.3) Experience. If you pay attention, you can often know based off of the type of mob / the name of the mob.A couple important thing to note is that not all mobs are a single class and they can also have non-PC skills. For instance, the infamous corpse candles cast soul blister (warlock) and absorb vitae (SK I believe?). Also, one of the fun pets in Nek 3 hits with a skill called splinters that no PC has. Furthermore, a (insert class here) doesn't always make a good pet. It depends alot of their scripts. You can get a berserker mob that is passive and it'll do 200 dps at level 70, or you can get a super aggressive berserker mob that will do 1000+ dps. Really the best tools at your disposal are experience and these message boards.Good luck!
