Pet Imps - please explain!

Post by x1125 »

So can someone tell me more about pet imps ? Why they are better than maxed nobles, how do get them, how much they cost ? Maybe someone could do a screenshoot or write here simple stats ? I would be grateful !

People use abbreviations a lot, so it may be confusing.

There are Imps, which are just Imps. Little green dudes. Anyone can tame these, with the right amount of skill. And they are found in multiple places.

The other Imps is short for "Imprisoned." These are little pets stuck inside crystals that you have to free (by double clicking) and they become instantly bonded to you. They are expensive.

I though about imprisoned ( I doubt that little gree Imps would be stronger than nobles ;) ) but why are they so strong ?

To actullay give you a usfull reply....
Imps are good for two main resons.
1. if you lore them they have 100% phisical damage AND 100% poison damage. This means if all damage they would norally do as a pack animal with a str of 370 (max) they double because it hits in both areas.
2. when the die they do NOT suffer from statlosses. This means you can drop 25 million coin in oints on your pack of imps and then go fight the ice wyrm or proxy and they can dies untill the cows come home but they will not lose any stats that you paid good money (ointments) for.

As far as price, it is all based off of the pets str (how much damage it can do.) STR can vary from 270-370 anything under 300 i norally sell for under 500k, under 350 less than a million usally like 700k or so. Anything between 350 and 370 I personly don't sell i keep, but they are worth a from a million up id say 4-5 mill for 370. Reson for this is the higher thier str the more damage the will do, AND is is someting of a status symbol to have 5 (or 10) 370 maxed imps. Kinda like rideing around on a giant spider (only you don't block half the screen ;)

hope I helped you out

yes lady mel drops them but the are rather rare drops like 1 out 25 or so id say. she is north of cross roads champ west of santurary, best to find someone to take you because it is a bit hard to find if you don't know where it is.

Bios are good for something imps are good for others, bios are more defensive. imp more offensive, with two bios you have 6k hit points who can heal them selves all amost never die. with imps your doing 400 damage persecond so even the ice wyrem or proxy will die soon. All depends how you like to play.
