Ever thought of achieving 100% elemental resistance for most elements at the same time? Yep,it's not impossible. Just that it requires a bit of work to figure out what skills/equipments/cards/items are required. Here goes,an introduction of the skill first: Invulnerable Siegfried (iRO Name: Acoustic Rhythm) Type: Ensemble, Active Max Level: 5 Requirements: A Poem of Bragi Level 10 or Fortune's Kiss Level 10 SP Cost: 20 SP Upkeep Cost: 1 SP every 3 sec Target: Self Cast Time: Instant Duration: 60 sec Area: 9x9 cells Required Weapon Class: Musical Instrument, Whip Effect: Increases resistance against all element and status effects for all party members players in area of effect. Cannot be canceled by Dispell. Level – Effects 1 - Elemental resistance + 60%, Status resistance + 10% 2 - Elemental resistance + 65%, Status resistance + 20% 3 - Elemental resistance + 70%, Status resistance + 30% 4 - Elemental resistance + 75%, Status resistance + 40% 5 - Elemental resistance + 80%, Status resistance + 50% [Note: Certain sources states that status resistance is fixed at +50% regardless of skill level. However, I am not sure which information are correct. Yet to be tested out.] Invulnerable Seigfried - One of the forgotten duet skills. It provides an increment of 80% element resistance to all party members in the AoE. Note that all element refers to fire,water,earth, wind, holy, darkness, undead, poison and mind; neutral is not included. Yes,+80% resistance to all elements. Hence,it follows that with a simple "skill,equipment,item and card search and select" procedure,character with full resistance to most elements can be achieved. So,next will be equipments and cards: Valkyrja Shield: +20% resistance to fire/water/darkness/undead. Hode Card (Garment): +30% resistance to earth ele. Giearth Card (Headgear): +15% resistance to earth ele. Wind (Thunder) Resist Potion: +20% resistance to wind, -15% resistance to earth And the result is as the following:  complete resistance to 6 elements: fire, water, wind, earth, undead, darkness 80% resistance to 3 elements: holy, poison, mind no resistance to 1 element: neutral Now,you probably can see that the only weakness you have now will be damage of neutral element.. However,this can be fixed by using a ghostring armor which gives a modifier of -75% for neutral damage. So,problem is pretty much solved now. 25% damage from neutral, 20% damage from holy,poison and mind. Applications: (WoE or PvP) immunity to fire,water,earth,wind,undead,darkness,25% damage from neutral: not afraid of almost everything in woe. asura strike(25% dmg), sonic blow(25% dmg max - by not using element), acid demonstration(25% damage), cart termination (25% damage max), wizard spells (20% damage for napalm vulcan/soul strike,0% for almost all the spells). afraid of stone/frozen and get asuraed? that is not much a concern too as immunity to water -> storm gust/frost diver will not frost you. together with the 50% status effect resistance,you won't be easily frozen/petrified. possible ways that may freeze/petrify you: marina weapon (20% chance), frost joker(40% chance), stone curse(60% chance), or extreme case weapon with 4 stormy knight card (80% chance). it's definitely ideal if you swap your ghostring armor and undead armor around depending on situation. though clown and gypsy with link will receive these resistance as well,they are still vulnerable to dispell. so the only possible way enemy wants to take your party down is by taking down the duet pair when they are dispelled. note that the calculations above involved the usage of specific headgear and garment cards. practically,most people may prefer to take 20% damage (which is not deadly in most cases even it's from a double thor sonic blow) from wind/earth by using their preferred headgear/garment. feel free to play around with this in pvp or woe.. in fact it may not be easy to apply this in any situation since it will restrict the party in the 9x9 area of effect only. but yes,this can be a very powerful skill if it is applied in a correct manner,in the correct situation. That will be all that i would like to say i guess.. do enjoy and thanks for reading. Cheers, ~[ ^ _ ^ ]~ p/s: this tactic mentioned is purely theoretical. test has not been carried out myself,but there should be no reason that it will not work. personally,i only experienced before the usage of invulnerable seigfried in woe,but not this almost full immunity tactic,and even just the 80% resistance to all element,you can indeed feel that you are almost invulnerable when the skill is on (i believe that's why the skill name is called invulnerable seigfried? haha..) XD

Huh?

Hmm, I don't think 80% with 20% means complete 100%. The meaning is if you originally get 100dmg, the damage will become 100×(1-0.8)×(1-0.2)=16, not 100×(1-0.8+0.2)=0.  Correct me if I'm wrong. |

well this is not a new stuff for me at least, bt it might b new to the english speaking community XD since i do read stuffs from jp n tw/cn if i remember correctly, this is tested n proven to work in tw n jp server @-|^_^|-: job specific: get a crusader/paladin that learned faith lv4 or above, then u'd solved the holy ele problem XD
thr used to b a bug whr the status resistance part is fixed instead of adding it, which means even if u wear a marc carded armor, u'll still b frozen bcz it fixed ur resistance to 50% which overwrites marc's 100% but this bug has already been fixed in the jp server at 2007/07/30 dunno gayliar got fix it o not though @Miles:
its stated that the effects r added up instead of multiplying so jz get any eqs/cards/skills that giv u 20% or more resistance against a certain element, then u'll b immune to tht particular element ----------Separator---------- well, 1 huge problem here, its hard to find ppl that learn Invulnerable Siegfried in our server XD another problem, most players in our server seems to be quite reluctant to learn new stuffs/techniques which is 1 of the reason y techniques/ideas r developed rather slow in our server, or rather the english speaking community, compared to jp/tw/cn servers Edited by Noir Ange, 18 Jan 2009, 03:18 PM.

yeah,nothing new really,this tactic was used 1 or 2 years back,but yeah since i am no longer active anymore,so decided yo put it here.. and yes,it tested and proven to work in tw and jp server,and kro too.. there was a screenshot showing Acid Demonstration misses by using elemental weapon (but now this bug is fixed already,AD is forcefully neutral now) haha...yeah,a whitesmith without val shield can easily hit 100% fire resistance too.. and ultimately,this skill together with asprika (new god item: garment -30% damage from all element including neutral),the character will definitely be godly.. LOL yeah,i read about the bug before,but idea if ero fix it.. @miles, as explained by noir,the effects are indeed added up instead of multiplying.. in fact in ro most things that gives similar effect by percentage,the effect adds up.. _____ that's the problem,the only duet that is used quite often in WoE is only Loki's Weil. there are a big bunch of other duet skills,some are pretty useful that are completely abandoned. only slight further exploitation of these skills are needed for them to become a really powerful skill.. but true,most players indeed quite reluctant to learn new stuffs/techniques,not to say tactics that are really complex to work well.. one fairly disappointing fact.. |

I think I read some really old documents and my information were not up to date anymore.  Anyway, another topic to get documented.

haha.. ro database is really huge,and can be found everywhere on the web.. many can be ourdated, certain sources are not reliable too. reliable sources usually are those that have direct link with an official server like kro,jro,twro,ero,iro.. though testing stuffs out ourselves is still the most most reliable way of obtaining a certian information and thanks for documenting this.. (wrote this guide with a rather drafting method,hence some of the not so formal sentences  ,since the mood didn't kick in when i work on this guide,so may update it some time later with more formal language and more information maybe,till then please bear with this current product,thanks for the patience  )
