Iron Dragons Spell choice

Just got a task of Iron dragons, going to mage them in Kuradels. Question, should I use Fire wave or Air Surge?. I have FSH, Mystic Robes, and will probably try to borrow a SoL.

Surge, always highest spell, Magic is alot about the base experience(for example, you'd get much more experience from an ice wyrm task when you are a newb as opposed to using every bonus possible).

First to 99 Farming on 27. September, 2005.

First to 3766 Port Score on 20. March, 2014.

First to 4664 Port Score on 2. March, 2015.

If those are your only choices, air surge.

Squab unleashes Megiddo! Completed all quests and hard diaries. 75+ Skiller. (At one point.) 2000+ total. 99 Magic.

my difinition of noob is i dont like u, either u are better then me or u are worst them me

Buying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.

Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:

your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupine

The only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it.

Just give it some time. Most likely you're unlucky and it will eventually pick up. If you're still killing slowly then, try ranging or meleeing them. However, it's quite possible that you're just being paranoid, it happens to me a lot when I try a new method of doing something or some other similar situation.

Almost 170 casts for 13 dragons?

Well, that's 13 casts per dragon. That's averaging 126.9 damage per cast. If you think you could do better with any other method then go for it.

Sounds about right, they are high level dragon with pretty strong defense. If your worried about the cost ranging and melee will profit especially if you bank the bones, but be much slower without some of the best gear (at least in terms of melee).

Looking at it, aslong as I bank the bones I still profit huge.

 

EDIT: take that back, its still loss.

aren't metal dragons particularly weak to fire spells?

Would trying Fire wave out to see if he hits better be a bad thought? :unsure:

Is there any proof to that?

 

EDIT: Tried out the fire spell and it "feels" like it is doing better. Not sure if that means anything.
