I want to tell Warriors and Dark Knights not to use the Shield Break weaponskill against these bats. I know it's an Ice based weaponskill and it should be able to land sometimes, but I was never able to get the evasion down effect onto the bats although the weaponskill would still do damage. Armor Break does work however since it's wind based and bats are weak to that element.
Siege bats only aggro if you are in a resting position. They link with all other bats in the citadel. So Mr. monk, wait 'til you get to a beetle, which are really pretty easy to avoid in this huge place, and use your powder.
No, they are in fact weak to wind, Detonation SC and Aero spells work very well against them... I know it's pretty odd, but i guess its true because a bat is small, and would easily be blown away by wind, lol...
So i see one person suggested Drown, water base to lower str? Is that right? I've been in here messin around and i think frost and choke work the best.
ive ran by theese soooo many times without sneak or invis on and they dont agro me so i would just like to say that if you run by them with no sneak on dont worry they're not on your tail :P
I can confirm that these are NOT weak to lightning. I set up a party with an impaction (lightning) skillchain againts these and the magic bursts and thunder dmage were nothing special. Infact they were down right terrible.
Don't use lightning spells against these, if anything they are strong against lightning. Wind on the other hand rips through these guys nicely.
I recommend you use aero and your next strongest magic against these guys.
I'm also not sure if these really are weak to Lightning and Air, because my Aero II and Thunder don't seem to hurt them much at all, even though I have 38+27 INT and use Shock. :\
im a lvl 32 ranger and i was told to head to Garlaige Citadel at my level...so i went to Allakhazam to check the mobs levels....this is like the lowest level thing..ios this what we fight at first please tell me ^^
Been fighting these in Garlaige Citadel and found their "Jetstream" spell/ability to be at times a killing blow. Is there an effective defense against Jetstream? Is it wind based? would Baraera limit the damage at all?
Im fighting these right now in Garlaige Citadel with my party: Teemo Darkonix Babula Boganted and Armas. We aren't doing so hot but I think we'll be fine. We are on the Titan server. Come and fight bats with us! Rarrraaa!
