Is there any way to really shut this ability down long enough to kill the pet using it?
*Edit: I've already thought of dodge, burrow, blocks, and similar avoidance abilities. Like stoneskin does with stampede, anything that does the same to brittle webbing?

[ability]Consume Magic[/ability]? I haven't tried it, but it seems like it might work.

Best way to counter it, is still with a sandstorm - ofc it doesnt 100% negate the effect but it reduces it enough.
Re: Brittle Webbing Counter
Generally speaking, you can just go with [ability]Stoneskin[/ability], [ability]Shell Armor[/ability], or such flat-value blocks to negate the damage.
You can also safely use defensive moves, non-damaging status attacks (like [ability]Stone Prison[/ability]) and delayed damage sources (like [ability]Doom[/ability] or [ability]Geyser[/ability]) without taking any immediate damage.
Conversely, DoTs, multi-hit attacks, or being affected by shreds such as [ability]Black Claw[/ability] is definitely deadly.
Other options are dispelling it (via [ability]Consume Magic[/ability], preferably) or going with [ability]Haunt[/ability], as being dead will negate its damage even though you have a DoT ticking - but bear in mind that this will freeze the duration on Brittle Webbing, so it'll be active when your pet comes back to life.

Well my longest pet battle yet was 8 hours =Biscuit wrote:You must have the patience of a saint. Constantly using teams with a 10% miss chance would drive me to the brink of sanity.
And cmon the 10% miss chance sandstorm brings is not as bad as its advantages are good.
Aka Darkness teams?....Biscuit wrote:Hence why I only run teams with little to no RNG elements.
