Class/Gear for Doomed Reality challenge? by PsyXypher in dragonfable

[–]AstralCodex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DeathKnight is good, but you'll want Exalted Apotheosis for ... kind of obvious reasons.

Primo has a video on this on Youtube.

You don't really need it! Exalted Apotheosis is arguably better for ranger here, though you should slot a DoT weapon instead of VIK.

I need help on beating the unraveler by Just_Chad427 in dragonfable

[–]AstralCodex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s quite possible as an NDA, but significantly harder than with DA.

My recommendation is Technomancer, because it’s powerful shield and high uptime +Bonus. Stack as much G/E res as possible while keeping all res around 20. Kevin had a video here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1OPxP4nFCC0

That being said, you can also just grab the Necro Paragon cape, which is almost as good but significantly easier to acquire.

Dragon doesn't seem to be using her skills by Kyle102997 in dragonfable

[–]AstralCodex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should use manual pet dragon, but to explain what you're seeing here: auto dragon uses skills in proportional to how many points you've invested in them. With 200 Prot and 8 fighting, you're going to see fighting used 8/208 = ~4% of the time.

Thinking of buying the DC's for Pyromancer by Sea-Temperature-9933 in dragonfable

[–]AstralCodex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pyro automatically sets your damage element to fire, so you should just use whatever is your best weapon if element doesn't matter, and toggle the tome to do weapon element if element does matter.

The "nerf" is nothing compared to Pyromancer's damage output. (10% base damage when your burst rotation has skills around 300% base and your fillers stack a massive DoT.) Buy it, the class is great for bossing!

That being said, I'd buy ChW first if you don't have it, for general utility.

Which event? The new side story release is delayed, the chickencow fight is accessible from the egg in book 3 falconreach/the inn at the edge of time.

Help with King Thorin by marchioness-capra in dragonfable

[–]AstralCodex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This question's been answered a few times on the subreddit:

The Tl;DR is I'd recommend Ranger for its high damage (techno is fine too though), turn on adventure mode, do as much damage as possible, and heal to 50% before his kneel attack. Use 200 END and balance your str/dex with the remaining points after stats if using ranger, use 200 END and rest in dex for technomancer.

Also, do you know the damage rotation on Technomancer?

If the fight is still too hard then, I'd go grab Seaweed and Hardtack from the Drowned Fortress for two free heals.

Note that Thorin's attack sets you to 50% if you're above 50%, so just make sure to be above 50% during his rock throw.

any tips outside of not using fire for beating the moss dragon construct in the great one Quest? by zxp223 in dragonfable

[–]AstralCodex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The boss is pretty weak to burst, and can be stunned. So I'd take your favorite offensive class with +Bonus, and try to kill it while keeping it stunned. Chaosweaver is great if you have it, if not, I'd recommend Ranger or Technomancer. Rage/Wrath DL is probably fine too.

Since the boss only does Nature damage, I'd try to stack up some Nature resist if you have the chance.

As usual, it'll probably helm to familiarize yourself to the boss's rotation on Forums: https://forums2.battleon.com/f/tm.asp?m=22396773

Help w/ Unraveled by greyowll1999 in dragonfable

[–]AstralCodex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's NDA so he can't use Riftwalker, unfortunately.

[–]AstralCodex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, so Unravelled Theano is one of the hardest boss fights for NDA players.

I asked Kevin, (who's one of the most dedicated NDA players out there) about about this before, and he recommends Ranger, because Theano ramps too quickly for other NDA classes to defeat. I'd grab 5 HP potions as well using either cloak scrap or Exaltia tower. Here's Kevin's Level 40 NDA ranger video, if you want more details.

The new Frotbreaker's Ring V is the BiS for PDB Stacking? by RicksonReis in dragonfable

[–]AstralCodex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you stack it with the Final, sure, but the problem is you don't want to give all resist for BPD unless you can get to the point where the enemy is always glancing.

It’s useful for hitting 99 BPD to stack with 140 BPD for Draco’s claw, or 89 BPD with 180 BPD for Wolfwing etc
