| Field Notes: |
Beware of the locations where can appear more than 3 together. In Folda you can find a respawn with 7 of them.
With the Updates/8.61 patch the looting was changed, and you can now open the bodies, BUT it is still possible to "fish" the bodies with a Fishing Rod and get some gems. |
| Location: |
Water Elemental Cave in Port Hope, Deeper Banuta, Malada, Ramoa, Talahu and Folda. They also spawn in a cave in Outlaw Camp, but this cave is only accessible during the Mini World Change "Down the Drain". |
| Strategy: |
If you don't have a Helmet of the Deep, stay away from more than two water elementals, because they will drop lots of Hitpoints in a single combo. When facing one or two, simply kill as a normal monster. Try run and shoot Energy-Based Attacks. Do not be afraid to use Thunderstorm Runes or Energy Wave when facing three or more. If you are a low level Knight, just run away if you don't have any good Energy-Enchanted weapon.
All vocations: Remember to bring your Helmet of the Deep when hunting these! It blocks 100% of their strongest attack, the water explosion. The heavy weight of the helmet will be easily compensated as it will save you from their most deadly combos.
Knights: Stay away from these unless you feel like wasting to get fast exp. They are very resistant to physical so you should enchant your weapon into Energy to deal normal damage. Skill rings are strongly recommended. Stay away from groups as you will waste a lot of potions for the mighty combos they deal. Even exori gran doesn't hit them for that much damage.
Paladins: Take your best bow, Flash Arrows and potions - kill from a distance while being careful to not lure more than two water elementals.
Sorcerers and Druids: Easy creature for mid to high level mages with good magic level. Sorcerer should take Wand of Starstorm, when Druid can take Underworld Rod or no rod at all. It should usually be all to bring them down in no time. Alternatively use HMMs to hit them from afar. They drop strong mana potions quite frequently, which will help you hunting for longer time. Glacier Set will reduce Icicle damage, but it is not neccesary. You will need to heal after each hit to make sure you don't die to a higher combo. |
