  • What mobs are "uncharmable?"

    I'll say right now sorry for any ignorance that follows. >.> Ok I'm almost a BST. (I started lvling WAR, now I have to lvl WHM, then lvl BLM to sub with WHM just to lvl WHM to sub with BST! Arg a vicious subjob chain!) Well anyways I'm new to the BST thing (despite the signature pic, that was made with the modelviewer >.>) anyways I heard some monsters are un-charmable, and some zones are full of un-charmable mobs. So I was wondering exactly which mobs are un-charmable?

    You cannot charm any mob which is considered sentient. You can verify if a mob is charmable by using the gauge command if you aren't sure. Specifically:

    Immune to Charm:
    Goblins
    Yagudo
    Quadavs
    Orcs
    Molboros
    Cockatrice
    Great Birds
    Manticores
    Gigas
    Weapons
    Elementals
    Magic Bots
    Golems
    Robots
    Hectaeyes
    Beasthounds
    Skeletons
    Ghosts
    Most NMs

    Highly resistant to Charm:
    Cactuars
    Raptors
    Jellies

    Good to Charm:
    Bats
    Beetles
    Crabs
    Crawlers
    Scorpions
    Funguars
    Tigers
    Dhamels
    Spiders
    Rabbits
    Mandragoras

    Sadly theres a lot more stuff you can't charm than stuff you can. Please feel to post and add more.

      You might want to glance through http://mysterytour.web.infoseek.co.j...000mobinfo.htm it shows which monster classes can and cannot be charmed as well as which are resistent to charming.

      Starcrossed has put together a very good list for you of uncharmable monsters. I'd just like to add Mandragoras are resistent to charm. And Hecteyes are not immune to charm.

      I hope you enjoy playing a beastmaster!

        I always found it annoying that we couldn't charm beastmen, especially considering that they can charm us at later levels.

          Yeah and Beastmen summoners (Expeditionary Force ones) are all mighty

          Having the charm bind uncharmable mobs is nice. This has saved my from many aggros
