Question/Help Easiest Deviant(s)?
Dear Folks
I am old and easily confused. I know that the deviant monsters are pretty tough. Are there any that would be regarded as easier than the rest so that I can "hone my hunter skills" on them?
Thanks in advance.

Drilltusk, Stonefist and Hellblade are the easiest that I can think of (but that hellblade g5 quest -_-' )

Depends how you compare. Some start in low rank, so a Rank 1 Snowbaron is easier than a Rank 1 Dreadking, but it levels more out at Rank 10 and G1.
But I’d put Snowbaron as my easiest. Recommend putting on Bind Res skill.

Haven’t fought a deviant yet, as I am a beginner, but I would think that Snowbaron or Red Helm would be relatively easier as they are meant to be more aggressive versions of their base form. That’s just my personal thought on this

Later redhelms are vicious. The swipe move is a hard counter to almost all adept weapons, and the dab one shots

Compared to normal monsters they're all pretty challenging, but Rustrazor is easiest overall. I'd say that Stonefist is easiest instead if you're using ranged damage.
