This is a perfect thing to kill to get that Lady or Lord. I am a mage and they do not prove to be hard for me! moderate for mage Submitted by Anonymous on October 13th 2007. Hello,i am lars von slash.

Wasn't too bad,just stay your distance and nuke it to death while pet whacks it.
new players beware Submitted by Anonymous on September 28th 2007. These Guys Are Weak For Experienced Players But Can Kill New Players Easy. All New Players BEWARE Of The Crystal Elemental.
Easy picking for an archer Submitted by Anonymous on March 8th 2007. Easy work for my 85% archer. With my elemental slayer bow, I try hit it with paralyze on the first shot, and two or three follow up shots will take it down within about 20 seconds. Loot and cash isn't too bad.
Don't let it get close though, because they bite hard. Easy with Competent Mage Submitted by Anonymous on December 24th 2006. One Energy Vortex takes these down - period. You can even kill multiple crystal elementals at once by luring them together and dropping a couple EVs in one spot. Loot isn't bad for the work...nearly 500 gold +other loot and gems. Easy!!! Submitted by Anonymous on February 4th 2006. With a paladin with taskmaster + a samurai with an Zyronic claw (ellie slayer, Mana leech 50) these guys go dowm easy. since it is not harmed by poison taskmaster does nothing so the pally distracts it while samurai kills and they have around 450 gp plus gems!!! Nice cash cow for GM warrior Submitted by Anonymous on December 3rd 2005. I just took out 32 crystal elementals in an hour to see just how much money I could make. I have a GM warrior (GM swords, GM anat, GM tactics, nearly GM heal) with ~100 str and an elemental slayer axe. They can be kinda mean and healing quickly is a must.
Gold - 13539 gp
Gems (16 diamond, 8 amber, 8 amethyst, 24 citrine, 16 star sapphire, 12 ruby, 8 sapphire, 12 tourmaline, 12 emerald) - 10280 gp
32 crystal elementals in 60 minutes gave me 23819 gp. Easier for a Warrior than a Mage Submitted by Anonymous on November 22nd 2005. Funny as it sounds, I've had an easier time taking these out with my swordsman/palidin than with my mage/bard. Just get close with a quick weapon and whack away, heal at the first sign of damage.
Usually go down in about 20-40 seconds, rather than the couple of minutes it takes my mage. Expert Stoic Submitted by Anonymous on September 9th 2005. My first encounter with the creature was spawned of reading this, as I was in Malas.
His ranged attacks did not do too much, 9 damage, but when I did get in close it struck me with poison and profuse bleeding. Normally I don't run unless there are multiples, but the bleeding and poison along with his hits (around 15 damage) created an unsound scenario.
(Mind the fact I have a combinded Physical resist is 78% with all items.)
Not too bad Submitted by Anonymous on June 28th 2005. coming from a gm warrior, i'd say that these monsters aren't incredibly difficult, but i've also gm'ed healing. hehe... Difficult for pure warrior Submitted by Bangui on June 17th 2005. These creatures are tough for a pure warrior. Expect a fight to last a while. They can be worn down and killed without using magic. You will need to survive their initial magical barrage before you can close in for close combat. Winged Mercury Submitted by Anonymous on April 23rd 2005. Definitely not something a younger player would want to encounter first day out. While they move slow, I still rely on speedy runs around an obtacle (or building) to provide me with protection as I heal the wounds. Very good gains from this beast as well (warrior here). Too Easy. Submitted by Anonymous on January 10th 2005. I go out and summon up two earth eles and go whacking the crap out of these things. I've easily made over 100k in under 2 hours killing these things. They also don't like EVs that much either. For a GM mage, these things are a cake walk, but for someone less talented in magic, they can difficult. Yannick Submitted by Anonymous on December 8th 2004. Crystal elementals are mid-level magic casters. They cast mana vampire and ebolts regularly. They are good for spell resist gains up to around 90. |
