Best against Irk?

Hi fellow UOers,

just a simple question to garner feedback from the masses that have any good advice to share about how to go up against Irk with a fighter.

I remember doing zero damage to it even though I can hear the clink-clink sound... then again, that could be her hitting me hehe!

So there, any takers?

go to hunters guide, check out what its weakest resist is and get a weapon that has a very high, *fire* damage or what ever its lowest resist is.
Or consecrate wep spam.

Some kind of samouri would probably be the best choice. Might want to avoid necro skill, I believe she can copy spirit speak skill and heal herself up.

A combination of what both of them said will be your best bet against Irk. Not to mention, the annoying aspect of just isolating him can be a little time consuming. You will want to stack anatomy and tactics...see all of the different Samurai 侍 threads to get suggestions. There have been a lot of threads concerning sampire and what have you over the past few weeks so I am not going to reiterate everything.

Irk has ******** physical resist, so pretty much a half/half or full weapon based on any other element will do you some good. Follow what GFY said and don't use spirit speak fighting her. If you do use the sampire you can implement GM anatomy or what have you along with the GM tactics.

Other than that, have fun! Really...once you get it down, the most annoying part is getting her by her lonesome. An invisibility sash or something similar can come in pretty handy in that zone.

i havent been to that little grove in ages as all my chars are red, but i do recall that I used to use soulseeker ( i think, still not 100% sure) , isnt that 100 cold damage?
the overseers sunder blade is 100 fire damage, this might be a starting point for ya. the SSeeker is like 60 ssi isnt it?
cuz you wanna kill it super fast before it turns into a clone of you.

Of course, consecrate weapon spam is a must. Other than disco and ss, any other skills I should avoid? Does she copy your armour resists?

Well off topic a little but based on what you said, you can use a disco/fighter if you had one as you can use the named spiders against Irk. I had a friend who used to do it all the time while he still played. Irk goes down pretty fast to them.

As far as the soul seeker, yes it is a 100% cold based and has 60 ssi.
