Guide A Glorious Guide On Fighting Gavel Creatures

Hello, my name is Poison, a builder for Wynncraft, who has decided to start using the forums after the amount of people with questions and opinions about Gavel

This is a guide on how to approach the mobs within Gavel (and Wynn too I guess):

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

First of all, the Elemental System:

This is hugely important when coming to fighting mobs. Use mobs' weaknesses to your advantage, and think about how you should approach the fight. Since the Gavel update, mobs are no doubt a lot harder than before, and I have seen some people complaining about this. This is completely intentional. The game is meant to be a lot more challenging now, forcing you to approach battles differently depending on the type of mob you are facing, its elemental attacks, defences and weaknesses, and the amount of mobs you will be facing.

For example:

​

As you can see, this mob here is weak against thunder, meaning you want to be using a lot of thunder attacks against it. Keep in mind each of your spells will do a different kind of elemental damage. So, for example, I am a Mage, so I might use my teleport spell against it a couple of times before finishing it off with a Meteor Spell or something like that.

Also, this mob uses water attacks, so if you do not have a lot of water defence or you are using a lot of fire gear (which typically reduce your water defence), you should be careful around this mob. But honestly, you should worry too much about a mob's defence unless it is a boss, where you can use it's attack type to your advantage.

Last of all, this mob has fire defence, so fire attacks will do little or no damage to this mob. For example, at the moment I'm using a fire type wand, meaning I should not be using any fire attacks to this mob, but generally I will be doing less damage to this mob.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next, mobs now have increased health:

In pretty much all cases, this is NOT a bug. You need to be SMART when approaching mobs.

Here are some points to consider:

- Should I even initiate a fight with this mob? Keep in mind the elemental system. Sometimes its best to just avoid mobs entirely. This is where your evasive spell comes in handy, especially Assassins' vanish ability (when it gets fixed!). Either just try and run straight past them, using your evasive spell, or find a way around them.

- POTIONS! Potions are now very important, mana potions in particular are extremely useful, especially if you have a very mana-hungry build. Health potions also come in handy, even for mages in cases when you have no mana left. Skill potions are also useful when going up against a boss with elemental weaknesses/defences/attacks.

- Don't just use a single spell! Mobs are no longer a two or three hit kill, and you need to use a variety of spells to counter this. Try using your damage-dealing spell combined with your defence skill.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thats all for now! I might add some extra points when I think of them.
Thanks for reading and I hope this guide helped!

 

This, This is very Helpful :D

 

Nice guide

 

Now I need a way to join the server so I can test out strategies on mobs...

 

Am I the only one, who gets spammed with rares and legendarys? I'm Lv 25 (restarted) and the game is very easy for me xD

 

Thanks very much, it helped me with animal dungeon boss :D

 

I restarted too and it's kinda like that for me except it seems that mobs in Wynn got a small buff too, so it kinda balances.
