Delsaber Attack

[Kholdstare]

This just crossed my mind recently while playing Ruins on Hard. Why is it that when Delsabers attack you with their "claw", it fills with dark fire? Are they, like, sucking your soul out or something? Just wondering.

You know, I'm not sure what that does...I used to think that maybe it was just absorbing HP... http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_confused.gif

Actually, if it hits you, it does drain hp, i had this happen on v.hard, he drained 1 hp like every second, until i killed him. Man it was annoying. LKucky ima racast and didnt really worry that much.

Oh, ok. That's what it does!

But why does the little green text not come up like other healing things, saying +1?

I just got smacked around by a V.Hard Delsaber on purpose and nothing happened, even with all of my equipment... unequipped.

so there is no answer...












THERE IS NO GOD!!!!

Well I do know, it gets stronger with each hit...

Only thing I noticed when it does that is it can not be hit. It simply isn't a target at such moments

I don't have the game around to test it any more, but from what I can remember, the little flame on the shield diminished every time the Delsaber used it to block your attack. When it ran out, it tried to use the claw attack, replenishing the flame on the shield and thus allowing it to return to its three hit attack. Of course, it could still use the shield if the flame was out, but hey, I don't claim that Delsabers're smart.

Sorry to correct you, but Photon Launcher-type weapons can break through the shield...perhaps anything that pierces? I'll have to try that with Barta and the Twin Psychoguns.

Techs work, just like with Gunners.

Thanks for helping, I guess...I'll still try the Twin Psychogun special on it, though. I'll post the results later.

Techs do seem to work when it does that. My Frozen Shooter/Snow Queen blasts don't. And choppers are useless too. Never tried a Photon Launcher. I should still have a Guilty Light with 50 Hit on it somewhere. I might look it up and try it out....
Difference with gunners is that the gunners ARE hit. Just with 0 damage. When a Delsaber does it's thing, it is unhitable. No 0 damage, no MISS. Just weapons/bullets passing straight through without doing any damage....
