Elf Slayers are opposite?? Help me out please.

So....I have a might axe of elf slayer.......when i hit elfs with it..it does 6-12 damage. If I hit dark elves with it....it does 35-55 damage. (yes it says elf slayer not Dark Elf slayer) I have tried this with 3 different weapons and 2 different instruments. I failed over 15 times with a dark elf slayer lute on gm provoker on regular dark elfs.....but worked 5 in a row on elfs. Can anyone verify this?

@Smash

Didn’t you run into something similar?

@Chris @Treasureman

Seems the case. I am getting dark elf slayers off dark types, and elf slayers off elf types.

They drop opposing group, but I think the names feel backwards.

I would judge by name that dark elf slayer would be extra damage to dark elves, but dark elf slayer drops on dark elf and works against the normal elf, and half damage on dark elf.

My experience, yours may vary. Name is confusing but it would be even more confusing if they dropped slayers that did extra damage to themselves. Not sure if intended name or mislabeled.

@Chris mentioned this but not how it would be fixed

Will elf named become effective vs elf or renamed to dark elf?

I was doing a Green scroll last night and i failed so many times on regular elfs and of course did not bring in a back up repond instrument. He did come in and change my lute from elf slayer to dark elf slayer and said that it was backwards. I asked him about it later and think he ment the coding that that specific instrument was backwards, not the name...but just wanted clarification on it so I dont waste a scroll by bringing a wrong weapon thats supposed to be working.

i spent 1 mil on a power/dark elf warhammer that is now only useful for the sucky red/green scrolls. I hope i can get it changed to be effective vs dark elves

i felt like an idiot during the instance looking at a power warhammer slayer doing 20 damage max to an elf. took me like 10 minutes to realise it wasnt working.

i failed my ironman attempt because i didnt bring anything else, no repond or silver weapons.

sure hope i can get another scroll :/

IMO they should be changed to match the name since that’s what you were expecting

I knew it! Thought I had to many crown and cokes last night....and everyone was saying that i was reading the name wrong.

(Something something last minute changes)

nah man.. i was sitting there trying to provoke dark elves onto each other and i failed 5x on regular mobs... i switched to a GM instrument and success first time.

I just threw my tambourine at the elf’s and pked myself.

seems like the reasonable solution. i definitely wanted to pk myself during my run

The names are flipped at the moment. Elf slayers are really dark elf slayers and dark elf slayers are elf slayers. Telamon said it would be fixed in a hotfix later.

What I (we) want to know is whether he will just be swapping the names to match current function or fixing the function to match the current name

Hold your scrolls and special elf slayers pending official word, imo.

Panic and sell both scrolls and slayers to Captain at half price, IMO

Wait a second here, crown and coke?! Americans drink crown too?!

Merica loves Crown brother
