Monstrosity: Abilities and General Mechanics

[Alistrianna]

Dasva, where was all of your augment discoveries located for the torques?

[dasva]

Well they are kinda all over this thread but I complied them in one post after I was done... http://www.bluegartr.com/threads/117...rr#post5989471

So not really sure of the level since most my xp is RoE and in buburimu but the gigaworm gets psyche suction for 200 tp. Does like 300ish hp drained AoE (though for some reason I haven't determined yet sometimes does 0)... and well this... <.<

Spoiler: show

It lasts 1.5 minutes and it seems like if you use it again before it wears off you can steal more stats that add up on top of the previous ones but only if the mobs you stole from have there stat down effect wear off first. But it wont extend the duration. Lowest I saw stealing from a single mob was around 110ish and highest around 220 but would generally only get around 500ish even with a large group of mobs since it seems it can miss a decent amount of time. Like no stats stolen when used on a group of 8 mobs once <.<

lol awesome

[dasva]

Also get Desiccation at 90 which is kinda boring since no on mvps lol

Curiously, equipping Cerberus III on my Sandworm didn't give me any earth resist+.

Wouldn't the 0 in the screen shot be because the dog is undead?

Perhaps though it would do 0 on non undead too sometimes. I also noticed that the low number in that is pretty much 1/4 the others so looks like it's doesn't have the weird ranging of normal drain spells and looks like normal nuke resist state. So maybe like 1/2, 1/4 and maybe even a 1/8 resist and then because it also has a debuff attached to it a full resist state as well?

iirc this is an old problem that I thought they said they were fixing where if you equipped a manipulator with a resist element that that monster type natural has it wouldn't show up since their natural resistances doesn't like how genbus didn't show water or earth resist. I could swear they said they fixed it though

So has anyone taken my spreadsheet and added all the new instincts, or should I unlock it so somebody can?

Doesn't look like anyone has, Raelia.

Can someone verify Flan II? I know it says Magic Accuracy+15 Magic Attack Bonus+10 Fast cast+10% but I'm leveling Limascabra right now without Flan III and something is giving me Quick Magic. I suspect it's Flan II.

[dasva]

Like long recast spells will have zero recast?

[Mefuki]

Yeah, and the casting time is occasionally almost instantaneous.

[dasva]

Hmmm well I never noticed that when I was using it but I was mostly doing stone II and T1 nukes so was kinda fastly casting anyways

[Kainstryder]

It's definitely a fast cast and a quick magic 10% effect, I'm spamming Stonega for leveling and it's going off instantly.

[Mefuki]

Ironically, I just finished testing Flan III in Buburimu. In the hour I was casting Stone II on things, I didn't see a single Quick Magic proc.


Also, some of Ruszor's naive bonuses are:

+40% Attack +20% Defense +175% Max HP

Very disappointingly, Frozen Mist does not give the user an icy mist aura or a physical shield. Just another monster that isn't operating the way even standard monsters of their type are supposed to. I'm thinking about compiling a list of the missing traits, TP moves and such and inquiring on the official forums about it.

Ruszor I is labelled wrong. The text says it costs 8 but it actually costs 5.

[dasva]

Would just like to say that behemoth has a crazy 50% innate attack bonus... which between that and good att instincts leads to craziness like this....

[Mefuki]

It might still be too early to ask this but do we know if Monipulators are effected by Job Points? I've been leveling my jobs to get access to all the spells and merit abilities on my Monipulators and was wondering if it was worth taking PLD past 85, DRK past 91, etc.

[dasva]

Even if it did what would be the point? belligerency highest cap is 90 so the only thing you can do as a 99 mon is kill mobs for fun since xp ends up capping and you can't get any drops

[dasva]

So finally got all mobs and subspecies and level them all to 99... and then talked to quest npc as each of them and talked to everyone else and nothing special for capping them all
