Talk:Ancient Healer/@comment-32930632-20170925124731

I was under the impression that gas dmg was effective against Infested, several people mentioned it, and the dmg table states that indeed it has bonus dmg to light infested. So I modded the Ignis to deal pure gas dmg and took it to survival.

What a mistake it was! It failed spectacularly as soon as Ancient Healers showed up. Toxic procs deal reduced damage to them, they don't deal any damage to surrounding enemies due to 90% dmg reduction, and since I get tons of procs in AoE they heal the healers really nicely making them, and in turn everything around them, unkillable... nice... all I see is a bunch of zeroes on toxin procs and Healer's health going up as long as there is a large group of Infested...

So a supposedly good dmg type turns out to be one of the worst when actually applied in practice...
