Don't bother with root. Don't bother with stun. Don't even bother with tash. Just cast mez until it lands.

You're right about Tash (I wasn't sure). It's been weeks since I've logged into P99 (I haven't quit, I'm just really busy). I'm not saying Cyndreela is unkillable BTW. Like the last time I camped her, I killed her like clockwork for a few hours (I can't remember how long), and the exp was good, the loot was pretty decent too. But then suddenly the random badass Cyndreela spawned. And there's no warning that she's going to be tougher than normal -- she just is. Again, I almost always kill her, but then die to the DoTs she stacked on me while I was trying to do so.

It becomes less feasible for me to try and mez her because then I have to give up my pet, which means I now have to worry about the low level dry bones skeletons punching me every 2 seconds, and honestly, the pet is a huge safety buffer when fighting her anyways.

I think people are misinterpreting this as me saying Cyndreela is really hard to kill or that I can't figure it out. In actuality most of the time I still kill her easy, and then get solo'd by DoTs long after she is dead. Which you know, Shaman and Necro aren't going to have this issue since they can heal, cure disease/poison (IDK if Necro can cure both, but they do have DMF and lifetaps on low level dry bones if needed). I think most classes like Wizard, Enc, and Magician are always going to have a much harder time killing her because it pretty much only takes one resist for things to go south.

But yeah, I basically end up losing the exp I get from her because even if you only die once every 2 hours, at 51+, the exp is so slow that you basically have less exp than before you started. This isn't the first character I've had this issue on either. I actually did think about how I could stack more HP gear on my ENC to try and make it a little safer. Right now I'm using a lot of really cheap charisma gear since he's not a twink, so my HP are pretty low, but I'm not even using Charm for that camp, so I guess most of my gear is useless in that situation.

I'm not a total noob enchanter either. I actually do play the character for the challenge. I've spent a lot of time in Lower Guk just learning all the camps. It took me hours to kill Froglok King the first time. But I wanted to know how to do all of this stuff so when the next P99 server launches, I can be that Enchanter who I used to envy as a Cleric who couldn't find a group, but saw Enchanters just wandering around the zone collecting epic loot by themselves.

I've never tried Efreeti though. Just getting to Efreeti alive is terrifying. Much less trying to kill it without dying. But meanwhile I have friends on Green who were able to do it with relative ease, so I guess it's just a matter of learning the routes and strats.
