Summoner Updates Beastmaster Update Example: Funguar Familiar

Summoner Updates

A new ability will be added for summoners, and with it, a brand new way for these masters of forbidden magic to lend their powers to party battles.

Avatar's Favor (Lv.55 Recast Time: 5 minutes Duration: 2 hours)

• Channels the avatar's power towards a beneficial status effect for party members within range. Reduces perpetuation cost while active.

Avatar Favor	Effect
Carbuncle's Favor	Regen
Ifrit's Favor	Improved Double Attack
Shiva's Favor	Enhanced Magic Attack
Garuda's Favor	Enhanced Evasion
Titan's Favor	Enhanced defense
Ramuh's Favor	Improved critical hit rate
Leviathan's Favor	Enhanced magic accuracy
Fenrir's Favor	Enhanced magic evasion
Diablos's Favor	Refresh

By summoning an avatar while this ability is active, a corresponding beneficial effect from above table will be granted to all party members within range of the avatar. The effect's potency will gradually increase until the avatar is released, and at its peak, can be expected to reach levels equal to those granted by the corsair's lucky number roll.

While multiple favors of the same variety will not be stackable, a single party can benefit from as many types as there are summoners. Furthermore, enhancements received through this ability can be used in conjunction with those received via magic spells, songs, the Phantom Roll ability, and so forth.

Beastmaster Update

Adjustments and additions have been scheduled that will greatly enhance the effectiveness of pets called forth via the "Call Beast" ability.

-New Pet Command: "Ready"

• When in control of a pet called forth via the "Call Beast" ability, the pet command "Sic" will be replaced with "Ready." By fulfilling the following conditions, "Ready" will allow you to select a specific ability for the pet to use from its arsenal.
• The pet's TP is at 100% or more.
• Sufficient charges have accumulated for the ability you wish to use.

-Charges

• Regardless of the beastmaster's level, one charge will accumulate for every two minutes after a pet has been called, up to a maximum of three. The amount of charges required will vary depending on ability.

Example: Funguar Familiar

Funguar Ability	Charges
Frog Kick	1
Spore	1
Queasyshroom	2
Numbshroom	2
Shakeshroom	2
Silence Gas	3
Dark Spore	3

We will continue to observe the beastmaster job following the release of the November version update, and as necessary, make adjustments to special abilities and calling items for each pet.
