Hmm i use a runed totem staf after a lv 12 im on 14 now and like it hiting
for some 19 damage i use it on blue monsters some times if i see they need
a one or two more hits. So i can get 2 blues before i need to med. I also
found that a elephants dont have magic resistance and you can take a white
calf in south caranas easy!
in group play as fight start i join with a staff until fighters dont build
a hate against them and then i move to distance and start rooting or nuking
if necesary. I look all time at health if fighters bar if it dont go down i
only use root when monster is to start running.
