Elephants have too many hitpoints

Siptah brah, the four tusked ones

So no one has suggested that elephants donā€™t actually have too many HP. Letā€™s be honest, itā€™s a typical over correction. You canā€™t tell me elephants are twice as hard to bring down as rhinos.

@DMW33: Youā€™re right. This works very nice. Finaly I can make my epic gear. I just need to find a way to get 1600 oilā€¦
I give my thrall a star metal great sword. That did work very well for the thrall. :slight_smile:Thanks for the tip!

Yes I understand that, but the time farming Gold vs just going to kill an Elephant seems like a total waste of time. 1000 Gold would net you 200 hide Sure. But I much rather kill something and complain while doing it then farm gold.

25

Honestly, itā€™ll sound silly, but I donā€™t like killing the elephants. I feel bad every time I do it.

5 gold = 1 gold bar = 3 goldstone

You can farm the goldstone fairly easily and honestly I prefer that over these fking elephants that, by the way, have not as much high HP as extra high Armor and dropā€¦ I donā€™t know, I killed 5 or 6 and got no more than 100 elephant skin. It was so horrific that I just gathered all the leather needed for one set of epic gear and left them alone.

I donā€™t think the issue is that the elephants have too much HP either. The normal grey elephants have the same HP as an elk king.

For me the issue is that they have too much armor and hit points. Pretty much everything else either has a lot of armor or a lot of HP.

Yup, you are correct after doing a little testing Elephants have a ton of armor. My damage on an Elephant is only 1/3 of what it is on other mobs. The fact that they only give around 8-15 Hide is also way off, as the little Antelopes around the same area give about 50 Hide. Elephants really need looked at.

They were crazy easy and then someone over-corrected them in a Patch.

They originally were like rhinos then they made them like 3 star boss fights they are not that fast of creatures to keep you in front the whole time.

Bump. Elephants on Siptah were definitely over-tuned. Given the current level of difficulty in killing them, they should yield a higher amount of hide.

Uhh, what? Am I missing something? Last time I played about 6 weeks ago, the elephants on siptah had to LITTLE hp. I literally one shot them, while Rhinos were 2 hits to kill.
???

32

yeah, you are missing some patches in between.

Lol this is an out right lie. Elephants have been fixed for well over 6 weeks.

34

Lmao, commenting on everything I type, kinda weird.

Let me clarify because I underestimated how long its been, its been about 2 months since I quit and not 6 weeks, sorry :)) but you calling me a liar over a small detail like that, LMAO.

Elephants were a 1 shot kill when Siptah was released, so clearly after I quit thereā€™s been some changes if people are complaining they are too OP now :rofl:

36

Itā€™s a public forum, donā€™t flatter yourself.

My elephants go down in about 40 seconds.
