For colossal I like archers.. for that matter fer elementals as well.. though scout used to be able to get both weakened afrits I generally settle fer one now with reduced slam or if using ranger or hunter..
Friar rocks on anything higher (as tough as any grape that is soloable.. a friar can do that) but its not necessarily speedy..
Tics are fast but have been using my ice wiz alot on draks.. he runs scared a bit but when adds come I just aoe snare them then pick them off at my leisure

haven't sent him out after elementals yet but prolly should try at some point.
