The poison resist is 100% Magic resist is over 120. They are poison and curse immune.

Their damage is:

They start with just poison.

Magical Ability choices are:

You can get battle defense to appear if the Wrestling is 100 before you choose.

Any of the Magical choices removes Poisoning.

Builds:

You get 2 choices from Area, and the specials.
If you choose a special you lose the ability to change the magic. It stays poison.
If you choose and area you lose the Special ability choices. So, an area and a special move. + poison
You can choose 2 special Moves.
You can choose a special Move and a special Ability.
If you choose a different Magical Ability FIRST you can then only choose a non poison Area Ability.

This is what you get if you choose a Move and an Ability:

I made one that started as a 3 slot.

AI and Frenzied WW is a popular build.


I went to put it on a Greater Dragon and someone conveniently left two of them by the entry. One attacked me so a told the pet to attack and ran out to compose myself. I came back and this is what was going on. I had to heal the pet a lot until it killed the first GD. Then the heals slowed down.

The Najasaurus is poison immune. It is very easy to train at Navrey and night terror. You only have to cast heals. The starting HP is high and dex is overcapped. It has high resisting spells so any magic cast on it will not last long. It has poisoning so the poisoning skill level starts out high.

I'm sure a lot of people have put Venomous bite and other poison related skill on it. Which would work just fine if your target is not poison immune also. I chose Armor Ignore and Aura of Nausea.

It kills the named balrons at Chaos a lot faster than my GD does. They gain you fame real fast. they are also immune to poison so it is killing them with only half its damage.

They are a slow mana regen pet.


I think this will be a great pet to take anywhere. that I go. That's why I spent the resources to beef it up.

It works great at Dreadhorn and Zipa.

It keeps up with you a lot better than other pets with 150 dex.

You could set the mana lower and increase Intelligence. Higher intel may increase the duration of the poison or make it stronger?

Intelligence does not affect Poisoning whatsoever. It grants a very slight Spell Damage Increase to pets, which is almost not noticeable. I still have to test whether INT influences a pet's mana regeneration rate.
Movement speed isn't based on DEX. It's based on Stamina, which all pets cap out at 150 Stamina now.
I would've put some SR on that Najasaurus, in order to keep it swinging fast when in heavy combat.

Dex does increase movement speed...just test it yourself take a 125 dex 150 stam pet and a pet with 200+ dex 150 stam and ride full speed in a direction about 5 seconds later there will be no doubt in your mind ^^

One of the slowest pets I have come across to get to 100%. Most of the others I have trained only took 4-5 Navery's max, except from level 4 to 5. I already have taken 9 Navery's with the Naj and it is only 77.38%.

if you want anything on Origin let me know LOL I have been taming just about everything for folks grabbed someone a couple of pheonixs this afternoon. Starting to think my tamers are the only knight of honor tamers on the shard. Only took me two week to figure out to use honor to tame the Ossien Rams LOL

Next best thing to good old Monster Ignore we had with Factions :) I can take 3 tamers down to the Ossein Rams and tame 3 ram and transfer themto the other tamers wait the cool down and tame 3 more and leave with 6 Rams and not a ding in the armor.

Only problem is the nausea. Is the cost is 100 mana and from what I was able to test last 3 to 5 seconds. I do like the naja though. Good tame!

I am biased here... but imo.. the best Naja is the Armor Ignore/Armor Pierce Naja. Mine loves to hit for 150 every other hit with that set up. Load the mana on it and the only special it really has the ability to do is high damage...

Its poison will affect multiple targets too. Nice pet
As far as weve seen, poisoning will affect only one target? unless you mean Poison breath AOE or poison bite special? Please let me know if the poisoning - plain poisoning will affect more than one target otherwise.

Actually, I find honor well worth the hour of so killing succubi in the fan dancer dojo when I'm going into a messy situation. That's how I got my naja and sauro in the middle of all that Eodon spawn.

I think the only thing I am good at is getting Mobs to attack me. I can go into the Ram room and walk out with 2 rams following me. I invis and click attack the Rams and they follow me out.

I'm pretty good at picking out a specific Mob in Eodon also. First I clear a taming area to take them to.

Still never used it... but I am a peace tamer... I pretty much run in ... invis, pull the bar of what I want attack it... run out... invis a few times to lose the other stuff... pull the creature I want somewhere alone and tame it. Invis a lot... I tame GDs this way and always have. I've never ever used Honor...

Sometimes I forget I have peacing. Though I'll say Peacing IMO is one of the biggest wastes of skill points... nothing stays peaced more than .5 seconds... which isn't long enough hardly to even get off an invis before whatever it was is back in attack mode... it basically breaks agro for a millisecond... and my thought is if you are going to invest 240 skill points in something it ought to do more than be just a slight hiccup...

They start with very low Mana. I checked the mana on mine often and it was around 40 - 60 all the time in long duration fights. I saw it use AI three times in a row while at that level. I did put the mana up to 332 because I am going to use this for short duration fights also.

You could set the mana lower and increase Intelligence. Higher intel may increase the duration of the poison or make it stronger?

To solve the mana issue you can max the regen and put scrolls on Meditation and Focus. Only 20 points for 120.

You could add Chivalry, Mysticism, or spell weaving to these pets. But that removes Poison.

I think this will be a great pet to take anywhere. that I go. that's why I spent the resources to beef it up.

It keeps up with you a lot better than other pets with 150 dex.
A freshly tamed Naja can train at Navery easily?

LOL I will stick with honor instead of leading spawn away and then having a angry critter I am trying to tame trying to kill me while I am trying to tame it :)

Like [B]MalagAste[/B] I am a peace tamer and have no problem luring a Naja out from spawn. I invis. lore and if its good one I lure to bridge and tame it. If i don't like stats I kill it for re-spawn. You don't lead spwan away you lure the Naja away. The Naja's seem to spawn in locations where you can isolate them and lure them away.

I know this is an older post but how did you add Parrying to that Najasaurus? I have a really nice 2-slot I wanted to start training up. I loaded it on Test Center to try playing with the build, I was thinking a FWW/Poison Breath build for great AoE. Anyways, I figured if I increased the skill cap on Parrying it would allow that skill to train. It did not. Does Parrying show up after you add AI or something like that? Just wondering if/how I can add it to my build somehow or if my pet won't have any parrying with the build I am thinking of doing.

Parry is a hidden skill until wrestling reaches 100.0 or greater when it then becomes visible to train. Likewise, if wrestling falls back below 100.0, parry will disappear until wrestling is trained back up.

Oddly, with some pets, you can scroll Parry when it's not visible, and others you have to wait until its visible. No idea why.

What i look for in a wild 2 slot Najasaurus is 190+ DEX and 189.0-190.0 Resist skill. Very specific, takes quite a awhile to find, but worth it. Moves at the maximum speed possible, and ends up with 170+ Resist skill post-tame, so immune to most debuff spells. Najasaurus excel at AoE with the FWW+PB (Frenzied Whirlwind+Poison Breath) build. They have the highest AoE damage of any pet with that build. Being completely and utterly immune to Poison (both damage and status), they're extremely easy to keep heals on, even when they're surrounded by Poison spamming mobs, since the only thing that can keep you from healing them is Mortal Strike.

Sorry to necro this post. Thinking about taming Naja for Dread Horn.
But on the other hand I have quite good CU with AI/Chiv and still thinking about getting somehow that bear Ursine and make it ai/chiv too.

What build would be good against Dread Horn for Naja ? I quite like the ability to reduce the main damage from Dread Horn with Naja. But I think my chiv/AI CU or maybe that Bear with life leach Chiv/AI could do the job too.

The issue with the 100% poison resist damage pets is that almost none can be made chiv/ai. This fight is a single boss that doesnt summon anything, so chiv ai pet would work best.

Naja has the total stats to be super tanky, but the fight will take a super long time. Naja damage is also half poison and dreadhorn resist is weakest to physical and strong to poison.

I would probably use either a clydesdale or lesser hiryu and set the poison resist to 80. Both lessers and clydesdale have so many training points that they can have insanely large hp and mana pools.

I totally get the pet project, but its honestly not worth doing. dreadhorn loot is terrible, best you can hope for is a crimson and there are way better things to farm. if just doing it for fun (which i do) its a nice side thing. but i wouldn't spend much money on scrolls for this as this won't make back the cost.

my 2 cents is get a clydesdale, make it chiv ai, set poison resists to 80, and just throw 110 scrolls on it and beef it up with maxed out HP/MP mana pool. these things have so many points that you can get close to 1k hp and still have an insane mana pool. (if using 110 scrolls)

clydes also have no other useless skills, so chiv ai is super strong on it


---
sidenote: you could also use this same pet as a miasma farmer, any 80 poison resist chiv ai pet does very well. cus are very good there since they heal, but clydes are very nice too. haven't tried a clyde on miasma to see if it can infinitely tank, but cus and pretty much farm without any healing on miami with 80 poison resist

Dreadhorn is the only high HP mob that is lowest in Physical resist. That is the encounter where you can use your Lesser Hiryu or new Clydesdale.

Been a while since I did Dreadhorn, but Unicorns are also nice for it, as they do 75% phys and are poison immune.

Too many people sleep on Unicorns due to how points starved they are imo.

Yup. My only female tamer has one. I probably sacrificed cold and poison resist to get a better build.

One of my main tamers has all the colors of lesser and Hiryus. It's about the only place where they are the best damage.

Hello Pawain and Hello Ang7.
Ok thank you. Well I have my Chiv/AI CU that I am using against Navrey boss. We manage to solo it within 10 minutes or less :D I was thinking to do Dreadhorn just for fun and to mark it as done once , in my to do list :) Misma for me with my Chiv/AI CU is like 10 seconds fight :D She is dead before I shot a single arrow from my bow :D , same with Swoop he is quite easy.

Anyway I am thinking about creating Ursine with 80% poison resist and chiv / ai / life leach I must say. And try it against that Dread Horn and than my plans are to go and do some Medusa, maybe Lady Mel , I heard somewhere that Cora might be soloable too. And roof might be soloable too with Triton ?

What I have now is Triton with Feint. He was quite bad intensity so I made him as a meat shield tank. Next pet I have si my beloved 120 scroll Chiv / AI CU with really good intensity. Next CU is more of a Ninjutsu / FWW and Explosion goo for some AOE dps. I have one Baka Kitsune that I have not touched for years and is getting dust in stables :D And I have plans for that Ursine to make it 80 % posion rezist with chiv/AI and take it to Lady Mel , maybe Medusa and for sure to Dreadhorn.

But I am alwasy accepting some other suggestions if you guys give me some. I am still new to this game and playing it only for like 5 years in total with a lot of pauses in between :D

Medusa isn’t good for a solo tamer, she clones your pet.

Ursine for dreadhorn would work, but those things are expensive. I think a Clydesdale does better damage and will survive just as well as an ursine. (And Clyde’s are basically free). If money is not an object, Ursine works.

Lady Mel can be done by a solo tamer who has high spell damage and some spirit speak. You just have to do it a few times to get good at it. Basically a firebeetle, high SDI, and you spam flame strikes and fireballs on her in wraith mode. Lady Mel you just need high fire damage and fey slayer spell book. Have to learn how to manage the summons and you’re fine.

Solo roof as a tamer is very very hard. As a group, tamers are ok I think a very well geared sampire is the only reliable solo template for roof.
