Summit Beastmaster

Description
Summit Beastmasters are ruthless Stone Summit trainers who enslave and ride giant creatures and use them as attackers. They use the huge beasts' Giant Stomp to knock down everyone around them. They are usually found roaming in packs with other Stone Summit. Beastmasters, while fairly simple to dispatch on their own, can make a party, especially of lower level, vulnerable to the other Stone Summit that usually accompany them. To more easily deal with this, assign a player with an interruption skill such as Distracting Shot to attack the Beastmaster, while the other players attack other units of opportunity. The Beastmaster almost always casts Giant Stomp right after Bull's Strike. This will easily allow the player to interrupt Giant Stomp, crippling the advantage of the Beastmaster.
