Leveling Glad with Detect weakness skill

I am a level 48 Glad currently leveling on AI. The exp is ok, but i wanted to know if there are any places in my level range where i could take advantage of my detect weakness skill. right now i have detect animal, plant, and insect. I thought an alligator would classify as an animal, but when i use the skill i notice no difference in my damage. I was under the impression that these skills actually made a difference.

Also, at level 49 i get detect beast weakness.

I am not at that level yet, but the easy way to tell what it is is to click the arrow next to the mob and that will tell you what it is. Alligator I can see being animal or beast, I am just not sure and I am not even to my first transfer yet, so it will be a while before I can say anything with any certainty.

They do make a difference just click on the mob hit the arrow and see what kind of mob it is then use the correct skill if you have it. ;)

the translation of the L2 client is a little crappy, ie. some mobs show up as bugs but insect weakness works on them, so even if the names dont always match u have to try for yourself and see. if it works u ll see a big increase in dmg

bugs = insect

Tree = Plants

Demons = Hell Spawn

ok thanks for the replies. i will do a little experimenting

Just wanted to clarify that the aligators on gator island are "Beasts"

If your skill works, you should notice a difference of 150% dmg output instead of 100%

Everyone knows what a human's weakness is, *breaks out the sweets*

Mr OP if you want to know if your weakness skill works vs the mob hit that arrow down on the mobtarget and see what mob icon it has.. if you have a similar mobicon on your weakness skill then you can use it ^^ thats the easiest and fastest way of checking what to use where; compare the icons

And one shouldn't have to be lvl 78 to have magic creatures and giants detect weakness skill.. sheesh...
Anyway the detect weakness is indeed awesome, the damage increase is substantial now. (it was crappy before afaik)
