Are the Monsters nerfed?

[Rabe 0]

Hi there,

I can only talk about Lv. 1 - 80. But are the monsters nerfed somehow? I remember on ePT that a HeadCutter kill me close to one hit on Lv. 50 or Figons are bad mofos in D4 of curse the Shadows and STYX either.

 

Well, but here i could tank them pretty easy, even with crap gear. I'm running around with an ATA.

 

(I can remember a buff of ABS short after AoR was launched, but I'm not sure if that might be the big difference)

Yes Monsters are Nerfed to around lv 1-65

 

The 70+ dungeons/areas are not nerfed yet.

Forbiddem land isn't nerfed.

Cursed temple 1 and 2 aren't nerfed.

iron 1 isn't nerfed.

But iron 2 and ice 1 imo are nerfed.

in lvl 85 with crapy gear i could tank iron 2 hs with vl..

and in lvl 90 i can tank 8~9 mobs in ice 1.

Like she said. If you equip THALES armor.. you'll be fine with most monsters.

 

But in maps like Greedy lake, etc if you get mobbed by 5 or more monsters, you are toast. Iron 1 is about 5-6  monsters.

 

Even at Base health with Thales armor (300 def, 10 abs I think) Stygians, dead machines, Spider queens, etc will hit for 30% of your Hp.. 2 hit death Typhoons suck. Thank god for Hall of Valhalla for evasion

 

You're surving as a ATA because you SHIELD STRIKE? An Ata should always do that.

 

I was in iron.. I kept 3 D-machines, 3 Dead Zones off of me with a stun while killing a Avelisk queen. It was.. 2 hits on queen, STUN the 6, 2 hits on queen, stun the 6..

 

If you're not using your stun, you deserve to die. Storm jav also has a nice PUSH back when monsters are stunned. So.. STRIKE, 2 storm javs, stun, etc and your mob is dead in no time!

 

I hate seeing Atas who forget their first skill.. It'll save your life!

 

Back on EPT.. at about 32 abs, Skeleton archers didn't hurt you, 36 abs for Rangers, 38 abs and headcutters can't 1-2 shot you.

 

If you want a great strategy, have 8 javelin speed. SHIELD Strike a HC, you have 3 hits till it unstuns. That is 3 javelin throws, miss included. Stun, 3 throws, Stun, etc and the hc/slaughters will never touch you. It works on other monsters as well.

Thats for rangers, if your melee, your Toast in those areas in 1 hit.
