why they dont like earth for bursting?

XD you can burst actually very well with Earth, in my opinion tho you wont need water if you are bursting with earth,
Earth only uses Magic

Round 1: Tree Bind
Round 2: Stone Wall (Pet)
Round 3: Terrafication
Round 4: Blockage

and you should have the rest of party Fire to ATK for high dmg! if you all doing average around 10-12k dmg you should get about 15k exp! :) its how i remember leveling my Earth ALT!
the Fire however may see half that exp only :(

i think only reason why they like bursting with water is becuase Water can shrink the mob, which gives added dmg delt when attacking! so in short a little more points :)

lol your doing it wrong, cause you want to terra the mob before you treebind, terra lowers def. Also don't waste sp on stonewall cause it only changes exp slightly, not worth the 93 extra sp for 200 exp.

they dont like bursting with earths cause most of them are newbs and dont want to kill their own personal exp just to lvl an earth, but people will be basicly screwed in harder quests without an earth tank stonewalling and tossing terra.

yes earth dont atk so the dmg the fire make is lower than with 3 fire in a team..

as earth its hard to find a team but if you have luck wou will find good friends they help you ^^

i had luck to find a high level fire when i was lv 80. he helped me a lot by train with me..
now im reborn and all say that such a high level earth is very useful ^^
now my guild dont any quest without me ^^

i don`t get how water can burst and what is bursting my friend said she was bursting water one day but when i asked her she was offline how do you burst can anyone tell me i`m a water type and i really need to know please someone tell me>.<

It's very hard for an earth or wind element player to find a team to burst with. I even seen teams with 2 waters, 2 fires, so anything is possible.

Teams may exist in these formats:
-earth and 3 fires. Be warned, you need a right skills order for the earth in order for the firest to get xp too.
-wind and 3 fire. Watch it, wind "shield smash" spell only works with melee type fires, fire mages aren't good for a wind to replace water.
-the classical 1 water, 3 fires
Then you may also try full element team, but I say the xp will be low.

-water, earth/wind, 2 fires works well; This way everyone gets xp.

Why is it hard for wind and earth to find teams? because some idiots started to assume they actually "absorb" xp in fights. WRONG, earth and wind take as much cp as water does, snce they use the assistant-exclusive method of bursting.

Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.

I don't know how to burst never cared to learn XD. Thoug i'm earth I'm happil lvl 96 Reborn XD without the use of burst.

reborn with out burst? show me im a newcomer

ummm?

they dont want earth bec earth takes exp
well its easy to train an earth anyways 1-100 in just 1 day when 2x
well if u have earth be sure u got a friend or u have ur mains bursting it:))
coz its really hard to find a team for earth

fire=98 rb wit
fire=97 rb killer
fire=69 rb warrior
water=67 rb knight
water=104 rb seer
earth=55 rb priest
earth=158

My suggestion is, refering to everybody's comments here,
Is to get your own team, like I did.
:/

Spoiler:

they reduce exp for fire or for water

no they don't take the exp its jus loss of dmg that causes lower exp and if ur earths were only getting 20-35k then u need to change things around cause mine got 35-50k jus 300-500 exp lower then my water. My steps were:

Terra
Def Shield
Tree Bind
Blockage

If ur an earth or wind Melee (attacker) then u can burst like a fire and bump up the fire exp but requires weights like fire.

I don't think earths take much exp (if any). Maybe a little because you lose a little damage but my earth mage was using debuffs so really I think I was getting about the same exp. I wouldn't mind bursting with an earth mage. I don't know about burstin with an earth warrior but I'm sure it would be the same as with an earth mage just the warrior attacks while my mage never attacked. I know my earth mage alt was getting the same or a bit less exp than my water and my fires were getting the same or a bit more exp per battle. I think people should be more open to bursting with earths. I think they help when bursting. Plus they are gods in quests if they have some spd. XD I worship my earth mage on quests because of her sealing XD

woooooo!!!! I'm at 200 posts ^^ (I need to talk less -.-)

There are MANY ways to burst each element. You can give tips and explain why you think your way is better. but I don't think you should tell someone that the way they're doing it is "wrong". If they've been doing it already, then it can't be wrong because it works for them. c:

I do agree with you though, I've been using blockage, shield defense (on pet), tree, terra (then blockage again for extra monsters). OR if the earth happens to be faster then the water, you can do it backwards so the water can still shrink (still using blockage for any extra monsters), although that way tends to give slightly less exp.

You can burst earth without water, I do this sometimes. If you use the regular burst skills for this, however, the fire's don't get good exp. So instead, I use terra, tree, shield, blockage for earth; and the fires use fiery attack on pet, slow down, GS, then atk and they'll get usual exp as if the earth was a water (in my experiences, results may vary).

I normally burst my earth w/out gs XD. The exp lost isn't great and it's kinda fun sit-bursting him at Frogs. If you're in Gemini maybe I can help out sometimes? ^.^
