When the update currently on Sakray hits main servers, Bloodsucker will no longer bypass plant defense.

Exploit it while you can!

Do we have any alternatives, for malaya MVPs in particular?

I was thinking the same thing. Ygnus Stale maybe?

But I think the things we need to kill are probably boss type and as a result are non-flammable.

This is an ugly option, but it's an option. The problem is that the fire keeps raining down on you during this time, so your Maes needs to be fire immune

Uh, they're not in the database in most cases. Plant type and have a few hundred hp and you have a limited time to kill them.

I think it's selected such that 190 aspd would be just barely enough if you didn't have to walk between them, but since you do, it's not enough.

Unchained serenade is the fastest way to kill those plants if the skill still works like how it used to be, i've seen people oneshotting plants with that skill, it's also aoe.

Pretty sure it's a bug fix and not a nerf.

Still looks like I'm needing to make a second maes u_u

If unchained still works on plants, i could get away with leaving the new one as bard. But I'm pretty sure this was fixed with the last balance patch.

Po-tay-to, po-tah-to.

It wasn't clear whether the old behavior was a bug or not, but the fact that it's being fixed implies that kRO considered it to be one.

What about eira's overboost + snake head?
If eira is attacking the plant too, you too, and with lv5 double attack..maybe you could barely make it
Oh and bring a certain merc scroll that attacks fast too

Bangy is easily dealt with using homun, i think. Eira or Sera can do it (with OB or bugs).

On bakonawa, though, there are constant meteors falling, and they will vaporize your homun.

I forgot about it but Summon Flora's Flora do full damage to plant type monsters.
Unfortunately the balance patch fixed this too.Go buy a CDim and an Elemental Sword and whack them yourself.

But should work on the rest.

Monsters do not kill other monsters!(except using suicide bombing and mines)

Does not matter since the balance patch also changed summon flora's monsters to deal 1 damage to plant type monsters.

Say burning status works, throw a Demonic Fire on it, it will be hit while burning takes effect.

Other than that....I think put a blood sucker onto it for the added dps, CD in mouth+Ele sword for the double proc and a snakes head for good measure
