So usually I AFK during flights. However, I have to deal with these enemies similar to the ones in the Sleepywood cave and they keep killing me! They deal over 600 damage per hit, which is annoying for someone on their 3rd job. Not only do they hit like a truck, there's multiple of them, and they FREAKING FLY.

    Where else would they spawn, then? Moreover, they are a historical mook in the game, like the Orange Mushroom or the Stone Golem. I don't see these mobs going away anytime soon.

    Go below decks as soon as the ship takes off, and you'll be safe.

    You could also simply stop taking the airships, and instead head to Six Path Crossway and use the Interdimensional Portal that leads to Pantheon to go to whatever town you please.

    As Aggraphine said. Also, they drop something for a charm quest.

    What level are you and what class do you play? You might want to get to 100+ before you ride the Orbis ship again.
    If you're stuck in Orbis, open the orange book icon on the left side of your screen and click the winged shield to access FriendStory, and hold down the NPC Talk button (by default, it's the Space button) for 2-3 minutes, and then enter the portal in the map that you spawn in and you're back in Henysys.

    Also, I like how you are traveling from continent to continent the pre-BB way :)

    You can also get it from Dojo, but you need some range to get its floor and beat it, cuz on Floor 29.

    The only relevant part of your post was the suggestion made to just teleport around. Even then, it was already mentioned by Aggraphine and AKradian.

    Secondly, do you have to put him down? If you want start a fire, go to rants and raves please.

    Lastly, 600 damage a hit adds up if you're AFK. Especially as certain classes. Assuming you're a Mihile, based on the avatar, ofc you're gonna be able to tank it. He's a Corsair. A level 90-ish one.

    OT:
    I thought about other suggestions to avoid death by Balrog. The biggest one I have is to not AFK until the ship starts and you are in the hold.

    Not everyone has range.

    this post right here, is a perfect display of how to be forum cancer.

    @UserRed just enter the cabin when the ship ride starts, the Orbis- Victoria ship is the only ship that has any kind of random encounter raid; However, as mentioned earlier, people rarely if ever use ships now-a-days to get where they need to go because there are faster methods of transport.

    Nooo..don't remove...U need it for the card and etc. Besides, it's the signature..we will miss them if they removed it. Just go inside the ship..you won't die
