Immune..eh?

GriftyMcGrift · 03-29-2005, 07:44 PM

Is it just me or is most named mobs immune to all ranged attacks? While killing time in TS I happened apon a green named centepide and I thought I would kite it around a bit. No luck becuase it was immune to all my ranged attacks. At first I thought it was just immune to piercing but my poision edged stilletto was hitting just fine.

Later that night I went to Nek Castle and all the sisters were immune to ranged attacks, I even tried throwing hammers but they didn't work either. Once again my poision edged stiletto was hitting fine. My assassin friend said the sisters were immune to his ranged attacks too. Anyone have any advice on combinations of bows and arrows that will work on these mobs.

BTW I am a 34 ranger using feyiron arrows and ..some hunting bow can't remeber exact name, but it is yellow to me.

Use player made arrows that cause crushing damage

Must be something they did in the last few patches. I was in Nek Castle last week at 41 mentored down to 36 and had no problems with anything being immune to my ranged.

Player made arrows for those occasions where the mobs are resistant are nice. Rounded ofcourse do blunt damage and Hunting do slashing damage. There is also Bodkin which are loosly described as extreme pointed do piercing and are supposed to hit more often.

Ok I noticed a few things over the past couple of days. First I tried some feyiron rounded arrows and they did not work. Second Varsoon was immune to me a few levels ago but now i can damge him just fine using the same set up. So I agree that this is a level thing, you must need x skill in ranged in order to damage them.
