Just cause Krug-sized monsters are immune to elemental reforges doesn't mean it's the end of them.
Really, elemental reforges would be the last thing to ever be obsolete.
Fixed.
I can squash the pitiful enemies that are not immune with my gigantic colossus thus elementals are not needed. The enemies that can squash my colossus are immune to elementals. I'd prefer smash dmg or crashshot projectile dmg on my weapon any day to deal with those enemies. The only use I can see now for elementals is to pound down enemies with really high hp (npc or bosses) or in pvp. And even then, they would only be useful on knuckles. A lv 20 magnum or smash reforge would out do elementals on a lance or bow since they have no AoE value anymore.

You be surprise. Devcat are know to Nerf op thing. This might be a trend. You might see more elemental immune mobs in the future, I'm guessing the harder content will follow the same path. Which is good, op reforge can fuck with old content, but new and harder content I expect to be immune to that shit for balance purpose.
I like to remind that this only affects elemental reforges.
Magnum Shot, Crash Shot, Smash, etc. reforges still apply their damage properly.

Yes I know. But those are less broken than elemental, but still broken of course. Reforge is Nexon cash cow, they aint gonna completely nerf everything into the ground because that will hurt their $$$. Going into the achievment thread, I facepalm at the amount of reforge that some people buy.... Nexon love you <3!

They may make elemental-immune mobs, but they won't nerf elementals. Why would they directly nerf what gives them money? The removal of elemental reforges from guns was indirect. Besides, if they really wanted to go there, they'd have retroactively nerfed the few elemental guns that came into existence.

I wonder what tags will be used for monsters whose protection can be lowered from Brionac.
Boss tagged, i have a list of them in xml form.
Basically things in boss rooms are pretty much auto classified as boss mobs.
an easier way to test is by using snare, anything you cannot snare, and i mean ANYTHING, is considered a boss mob, which is why you can snare ghasts and blinkers
If anyone would like to test the above, go ahead, let me know if you can snare succubuses.
I still need more conclusive testing since i know giant spiders are boss tagged and cannot be snared.
Same with golems.
Same with basilisk.
Same with merrow.

I say it's boss tag, because in the xml, it really does label them as BOSS. Or to similar extent.

But this is already a massive nerf to elemental as it stands. You don't need elemental to blaze through NPC or SMs. So why bother spending the money for ele when all you can do with it is hit higher numbers in non-endgame content?

You don't need it but it makes it even faster. Faster exp = best exp

Notice how there's ONLY Cor mobs listed?
yes?
Then you'll see that MA Tourney mobs seem to be affected by Elemental Reforges :3
These Cor mobs ONLY apply to their G17s4 and probably G18 equivalents
