In my opinion, it's the most annoying monster in the game as it can both poison AND petrify you. For these things, when I was a Mystic Knight, would just set up 3 Magic Cannons and just blast away at it...if it would leave me alone long enough to even set them up...much like the Ur-Dragon fights. Being a sorcerer has its advantages (like Voidspell 4 petrify) but like I said; it almost always goes after you if you're a mage...because I simply think that they know a High Maelstrom or High Gicel is coming and they either simply move out of the way...or just get up in your face and pimp-back-slap you before you can get a chance to pop one spell off. Also,  it can seem to petrify even if you stood out of range of the breath attack XD game mechanics always amuse me.
