All you can do with a rune beetle are stats, resists, and skills. I haven't trained one in a while, so I don't know if you can give it another casting ability (i.e. Spellweaving, Chiv, Mystic - you can give it Magery Mastery), but they all come with Rune Corruption, Poisoning, Bleed, and Magery by default - RC/Poisoning/Bleed take up the extra special ability slots by default.I have a pp rune beetle and was wondering what training I should give it. I did try training it on TC1 but it didn't let me give it anything other then stats, any magic ability always shows 0 in red.
Thanks
You can give it another casting ability, only beetle that can get chiv. You lose the magery and poisoning in the process though.so I don't know if you can give it another casting ability (i.e. Spellweaving, Chiv, Mystic - you can give it Magery Mastery),
Does it loose rune corruption by giving the rune beetle chiv or lets say discordYou can give it another casting ability, only beetle that can get chiv. You lose the magery and poisoning in the process though.
no. But runebeetles are tight on training points when switching magics.Does it loose rune corruption by giving the rune beetle chiv or lets say discord
I think for certains bosses with multiple players attacking it , discord + rune corruption rune beetle would be more damage over time , depending of course of other factors but compared to a chiv Cu exemple .i wonder how a RC/disco rune beetle would compliment a chiv cu. seems like it would be an excellent support pet.
* Hint hint, nudge nudge *This is a pet type that no one has made a info/build thread on.
There is a reason for that. Like other's said, it's comes with a baggage of marginal moves, it is tight on points, you can't ride it. It's inferior in almost every way that matters to other beetles. Now, if the Devs fixed poisoning so that we could take advantage of rune beetles with overcapped poison skill, rune would make a nice specialty pet.* Hint hint, nudge nudge *
YES. It will cancel magery AND poison.Does discordance cancel the magery and/or poisoning abilities?
THANK YOU!YES. It will cancel magery AND poison.
I disagree.THANK YOU!
SO THEY ARE USELESS!
What is the 2nd magic for Wolf Spiders? They only spawn with Poisoning as far as we know?and wolf spider
Last time i tested Slashing on a pet, the Onslaught didn't work. It wasn't reducing the victim's Resists.I think for certains bosses with multiple players attacking it , discord + rune corruption rune beetle would be more damage over time , depending of course of other factors but compared to a chiv Cu exemple .
IM also thinking of the fire beetle , I wonder if it can have slashing for onslaught, with inferno , as a 2 slots fire beetle , then you run a 3 slot pet with discord ( thinking of a fire steed now or a phoenix or those new plat/crimson drag with 100% fire dmg).
Have a necromancer cast corpse skin and you got alot of fire reduce combo if im not wrong
He's probably thinking of Dread Spiders, which start with Magery and Poisoning active. They also have points in Necromancy, which allows you to easily turn them into Necromage.What is the 2nd magic for Wolf Spiders? They only spawn with Poisoning as far as we know?
Shadow WyrmsYes, I meant dread spider.
Dread spider is also 3->5 slot but starts with about half the HP/STR and lower skills than a rune beetle.
Besides them and skree, any others that spawn with 2 magics you guys can think of?
