I used the search thread and found much on many other creatures elemental weakness, but does anybody know for sure what Element does the most dmg to SF dwarfs? Im asking cause im building a bow for pure dwarf dmg, and need to decide on the string. Thx for replies in advance

hmmm dunno i think that they dont like fire damage because they live in the cold areas eh so you should try that out ^^

Unfortunately for me, an earth ele, the answer is fire. Also, they are resistant to earth.

Do some testing on it and post the numbers; casual observation doesn't help. On the lower level stone summit in the northern Shiverpeaks, they have no particular vulnerabilities or weaknesses vs. any of the available melee damage types (inclusive of elemental).

Wardens are weak to fire, and so are Ice Golems. A side note, Binders are weak to air.

There are also class weaknesses.

Necromancer Dwarves tend to be weak to Air (Lightning) in general.

Dwarves were supposed to have been created deep within the earth so not too surprising they're resistant to earth.

I would imagine that the Elemental midgets are resistant to Earth, cuz they use it. Bring two bows - One with pure physical dmg (zealous, poisoners, sundering) for casters and one with an elemental switch (fire or lightning maybe) for warriors.

thx for all the input, fire does seem to work well, but i need to do some testing to see if numbers are really that different. Want a bow that kills dwarven casters the fastes cause traps kill the warriors pretty quick. Ill try to round up some test bows and let yall know. Oh, btw, does anybody know if the dwarfs in the shiverpeaks r differnt from those in the furnace?

With the armor penetration on certain Air spells, these would be a good choice in general due to the high armor on the dwarves.

unienaule · Nov 16, 2005, 07:21 PM // 19:21

the dwarves are the same in both places.

the rangers in grenths at least take less from fire than phusical whereas the other classes take more.
