Thread: How many/who are the 100% Kinetic resist mobs?
It's strange,whilst looking for Janta Blood I came up against a Janta with 100% kinetic resist, instantly I thought "oh dear time to turn around", but for some reason I decided to attack anyway. At the time I had been TKM for 2 days and hadn't encountered a mob with such resists with my new skills. I got it to agro me, kited it a short distance then landed a kd2 and started wailing on it. Within 30 seconds this *100%* Kinetic SPECIAL PROTECTION mob was cut downby my BARE FISTED attacks.
So does this mean that 100% kinetic resist means nothing? I had more trouble taking down some type of Merek with 75% Kinetic resist, than this 100% Kinetic resist Janta. Quite weird.
Also fought a Nightsister Elder by mistake last night, one that had 100% Kinetic resist and Medium armor, yes I died, and quickly, but I still took 4k health off in a short space of time which surely I shouldn't be able to do?
if you have ap1 and your target has ar0, you will bypass their resistances, but all the mobs with 100% kinetic that I've seen have at least light armour.
I can think of: One of the high level nightsisters/mountain clan/spider clan - heavy armour, 100% kinetic, 100% energy and a some others - afew lower resists to make her actually killable. (fire dots from a friend got her in the end)
Mokk rockshaper - light armour + 100% kinetic. Easy enough to keep kd/dizzy and intimidated while either a poisonous pet or a friend does the damage.
Peko-peko albatross. Medium armour and 100% kinetic. Unless you're grouped with a commando or bh or somebody that does high damage that's not kinetic, forget it. Does the annoying peko-peko thing of flying off when badly hurt, and not even swoops can keep up. Also got a few nice area effect attacks so take a doctor too.

I'm not sure if this was true in the past, but this is definately not valid anymore.

funny, last time i killed a NS elder I was doing 300 damage a hit w/ VK's.
Liar
Elders have 100% Kinetic resist, so they essentaly have 90 or so, it IS Possible to damage with Kinetic, even though it "Says" 100%.
I am able to do damage with kinetic, both on a VK and with a gaffi, but i wont say its any decent ammount lol

Who are you to call him a liar? Maybe the last time he killed an elder was BEFORE they gave them 330k HAM and have huge resistances?
Id ont understand why the damage displayed in the combat window shows exactly the damage you did before the +Resist Roll of the target, i was fighting a krayt and i hit with unarmed 2, it said i did like 1700 Dmage in combat window, but like 140 appeared above his head.
Nightsisters are tough, at least a kray cant use force powers, we went into the cave and got owned by them.
I had killed 7 Sentrys on the way in as they kept failing with force choke as i was nicely buffed.
But damn when i got to a speelweaver it was all over.
Also i am noticing that no matter who i am fighting with, as soon as i attack, the whole mob runs at me lol, even if they aengaging another PC target, they turn around and hit me!
