where are all the elemental NM's?

[Zaltana]

where are all the elemental NM's. i did a family check and it seems that one only elememntal NM's are quest related (chaos, magic sludge, the pld AF1 NM, ect). i read there was supposed to be a lvl 85 one in newton but uncomfirmed so says (the not always accurate) alla website. i love fighting elemenatals and i'm surprised by the lack of NM's for that class.

I think SE wants to refrain from making NMs only blms/rdms could kill...idk :|

Go fight uber primes, you'll get all the Nm action you want

Trade a inappropiate coloured chip and infinite core to a strange apparatus. A NM elemental spawns.

No idea how strong it is though, but if you want to go test your luck ...

there are three elemental NMs in this game.

Polevik, for PLD AF1.
some dark elemental NM for BLM AF1.
and, Yensho, a elemental in Newton Movalpolos. It's a wind elemental, I believe it's popped but I'm not exactly sure.

 

[Skaw]

Magic Sludge is a NM Dark Elemental for BLM AF3 too, Tymon.

 

[Passions]

some Light elemental NM for BLM AF1.

Fixed af3 for blm is a dark elemental and extreamly extreamly resistant to everything lol but even still a fun easy fight for me

 

[Pompidou]

Maybe he was thinking of Chaos Elemental in Xarcabard - blm AF1.

 

[Necrosis]

Yensho probably doesn't exist... I don't believe there's any ???s that would possibly pop him in Oldton. No one has ever seen him, either.

and there is no Yensho in the .Dats

It's not even a quest =)

I'm pretty sure all mob data is serverside(Pretty much the only thing that is.) If Yensho looks like a normal air elemental, he wouldn't have his own unique model or animation sets.

Tends to be a Mob list for each zone.

 

[Zaltana]

bleh those dont count.

 

[Tagrineth]

There is no Yensho, period. All mobs are in the .dats, otherwise we'd have no clue what their names are and what image to apply to them.

The gilsellers use this to cheat at Mee/Quu - they rename the placeholder yagudos PLACEHOLDER 1 and PLACEHOLDER 2 in the .dats

At the mid 60s with my monk i made quite a bit of profit off of these by trading the right chips when it was still a mostly unknown kinda thing. I remember popping an elemental in CN and it wasen't too big a deal if memory serves though i can't remember wether trippyhippy(blm) or darklion(rdm) were with me ... regardless it's nothing a melee and mage around that (60-65) level can't handle easily, if that helps at all.

'Course ... the drops usually suck, but that's a different thread

 

[Marajade]

PLD AF1 was an earth Elemental. He didnt tell me that _-_

 

[Zaltana]

a very solid earth elemental.
