Firstly, I don't wanna hear get both unless it really is absolutely neccessary. I am forking out 1.4~1.6bil per armour nowadays and would like to limit that not only for price, but for weight as well.

 

Now, I solo stuff a lot and find being Frozen and Curse immune is amazingly helpful. But I am suddenly exposed to fire and cannot be ressurected. If I play solo, this suit is fine because I don't go in with a mindset to die and deal with it if I do.

 

But these days I also tag along for guild events and dungeon crawls for fun. But Evil Druid armour is a HUGE hindrance during these runs if for some reason I die etc. I can't use a shield on the count of being a bow user, so I can't get stone curse immunity from that.

 

Are there any other mitigations for Stone Curse that are reliable? I don't like being frozen in place for things like Osiris and Phreeoni, even if I can 1 shot Phreeoni I am still not at that stage with Osiris yet, and there are other times where Stone Curse is just as painful to deal with (such as various stages in ET).

 

So, do I stick with Evil Druid and just carry tokens for party play or is there a good mitigation for Stone Curse that makes it more viable to use a Marc Card instead?

 

Thanks!

The wiki states it is 30%, is it 30% or 50%, and does it do a good job (from personal experience)?

 

Thanks :)

no you are mistaken, the wiki db says 50%.

 

2 gemini cards is immunity to stone curse. I have a gemini cat ear beret and BFG[1] for woe and its 100% immunity 4 sure.

 

there is also medusa card

 

I own a "plasterer's strong shield" for my RK/RGs so they can avoid being knocked back and stone cursed by beelzebub

My poor choice of words. The DB does say 50%, this however states 30%:

 

http://irowiki.org/w...s_Effects#Stone

 

But 50% is still good, I might look into it since I do feel sorry for my party members when I have to walk back or sit out because of using an Evil WWS haha.

 

**Edit** Decided to craft some gemini carded sunnies while they were cheap (only 33mil to craft!). Will see how well they work, since my next Sharp6 WWS will be reserved for a Marc Card.

there are more probs to evil druid armor which include taking 1.25x damage from fire element (like elder firebolt)

 

I wouldn't wear undead unless its absolutely necessary

Gemini works like a charm. If you use 2 then you get stone immunity. I tested it a long time ago. The only time i use undead is for soloing bio3. Shadow is definitely more useful. I prefer Marc against freeze
