Without wound healing or meditate abilities, you'll eventually become black-barred after killing a few GDKs, with or without disease resist enhancements .







Hmm that makes me think...Disease wounds only affect your base HAM stats at the moment , not any buffs/food/drink. Post CU your BASE health will be 3k and will ALL be diseasable. Going to be some nasty cases of Kimo clap going around.

Not so if you're Ranged, like Rifleman. I've spent an entire buff with minimal disease hits. You simply drag the GDK into a nearby group of MOBs, like Canyon Corsairs, or better yet, other Kimos, and let them tank and take all the disease hits, while you hang back and leisurely blast him. We've all become so addicted to buffs and armor, and the ability to wade directly into most combat situations, that most people no longer use tactics when dealing with tough MOBs. If you're Melee, well, best of luck with the disease.


BTW, I looted one set of 4 scales and one set of 11 in about5 kills,in less than one buff session, and sometimes I've gone an entire buff with 0 scales. Just hang in there and you'll eventually get lucky.
