Talk:Bandersnatch

Advice

Okay, we need to rework this seeing as whoever decided to add in all the advice didn't bother to check for consistency and redundancy. Currently we have:

Very susceptible to Stomp. Otherwise avoid using normal attack, including Final Hit. Counterattack and Windmill are defective. Smash will work but they can retalliate. Magic can work but Icebolt and Lightning Bolt are somewhat defective. Firebolt is the best way to deal with them.

And in the Information Box we have:

This monster is resistant to every normal attack (including Final Hit). Skills are the only way to defeat Bandersnatch. Delivering a critical blow will ignore the 1 damage ability. The giant throwing attack has little or no effect and always results in a hit of 1 even if critical is activated. Stomp is the most effective way to deal with them

I've personally found Windmill to be a great way to deal with Bandersnatches myself. Might just be me and my Rank 4 Windmill talking but the whole "ignore prot effects on crit chance" thing works well considering critical hits hit them for high damage (and I have over 30% crit) and many times I can just plain overwhelm their defense. The thing here is that this is just MY personal experience. To represent a clear view on the matter we'll be wanting the views and opinions of others.

To continue, I think Smash would only work as long as the Bandersnatch hasn't seen you as there's the whole issue of multi-aggro and Smash being defeated by normal attacks. I don't really see how Lightning Bolt is "defective" so if someone could explain that to me I'd appreciate it heaps.

So yeah, let's give this a redo shall we?--Mystickskye 06:11, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

Shouldn't Bandersnatch be in the Zombie's page? Why do they have their own page?

Agreed--Hengsheng120 11:45, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Par Snow Crystal

I brought this up once before when Bandersnatches were on the zombie page but no one commented so I'll try again here. From what I've seen, Bandersnatches seem considerably stronger in Par Snow Crystal. Thing is, thinking back on it I'm not sure if such Bandersnatches had titles or not or even what those titles were meaning that even if they were titled the title may not have had any effect on how long they lived. Can anyone confirm?--Mystickskye 22:58, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Fast Recovery

I don't think they actually have it. Their hp is is so low that its more likely that they're simply recovering at normal speed.--Goldenchikle 05:01, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Des anyone know the drop rate percentage of the Ice wand from the Giant Bandersnatch?

Drop rates are server sided, no one will know the exact %.
