Carbuncle Perp Increase.

Noob has been topicbanned. Continue on the discussion, sorry for the inconvenience.

*Cheers Aly on!* lol

Linkie says re-logging and downloading update again fixes bug, can anyone confirm? (I didn't think there would be multiple versions of an update aside from Emergency fixes, so not sure what she means)

O.o nice


THAT would be sexy :D

they broke carby mitts ; ;!!!

How do we go about reporting this? Through the in game Help Desk menu system?

im using all availbale -perp cost (except smn mythic, and no weather/day bonus) and with increasing refresh rate on diabolos favor, i get a free diabolos in the end (after about 1min). without diabolos favor, i got -5 on start.

and i get a +1 carby when i use nashira hands instead of carby mitts and carby favor on.

so the carby mitts and regarding perpetuation is definitly broken. but who expects new abilites to be implemented w/o errors =).

they wiill know soon

titan took my def from 229 to 286 not sure what level protect that be

diabolos down to 2 mp tick with latent ring and 2 limbus peices should have +1 refresh

Clearly upset that he never gets invited to the burns. Tisk tisk tisk, and such vulgar language. Difficult to believe you are an adult, let alone that your balls have decended correctly.

Thanks for your research Panjabi.

I tried with Carbuncle Mitts and I didn't notice an increase in Refresh. Only level 26 though, if that has something to do with it (probably).

Yeah, Can confirm what a lot of people are already saying
Apollo's Staff/Yinyang/Carby Mitts/Evoker's Ring/Evoker Pigaches+1 and MP Cost was 2 MP/tick without Favor. Tested it without Carbuncle Mitts, was still 2 MP/tick, Nashira raised it to -1 MP/tick. With Favor up, cost was 0, but as a lot of people already said, +1 MP/tick from Carby no more for now =( Hope they fix it. On the other hand though, the -2 Cost from Avatar's Favor is nice for Garuda and Fenrir, yay cheaper them, and 0 MP Cost Diabolos ftw! Probably gonna solo GKs on SMN later :D

Free Carby still without mitts

Avatar's Favor is about 15 feet surrounding the avatar

It builds quickly.

They need to fix the glitch this sucks carby is costing me 4mp a damn tic wth SE.....................

They always said that the rats are the first ones to go.

I hope they fix this really soon i hate carby costing me makes so many things a bigger pain >.>

Could this emergency maintenance be the fix?

Avatar's favor is 10', not 15'.

More like 9' actually:P

What ever it is, it's pretty close. I was in an LS assault event last night and even during PT movement, the other mages were sometimes out of range from Diabolos' Favor.

Tested it last night this is my Gear Setup
Evokers Ring: -1
Evokers Pigaches +1: -1
Nash Gages: -1
Royal Redingote: -2
Fay Cozier: -3

With Diablos out after I waited 2-3 min with Favor up he was giving me 1 tic a second.

With Fenny out he was free.

Rest cost me -2

Day of the week windday Grauda out with Evokers Robe cost me -1

Oh I also tested more than one SMN in the party, if they have a differnt aftar the favor's keep adding to the party. Same one it doesn't stack. And you can't be too far from the avatar. I cant windower in xbox but I would guess about 20 feet away from your avatar before his favor is not there.

All in all happy with this update.

Am I really the only one who thinks it's kinda lame that the refreshga effect that Diabolos gives is only there while he's out? I mean he's not the greatest avatar to attack with, who wants to keep him out all the time *just* so the party that's in close proximity gets refreshga?

Same goes for the other avatars really... I mean I like the defense bonus that Titan's favor gives, but that doesn't necessarily mean I wanna attack with him. I'm just a little disappointed that the favor is only in effect while the avatar is out, I guess. *shrug*

*shrug* honestly... all of this is better than nothing. Think about how far smn has come from a substitute whm with only up to cure III. I think the job has come a long way to becoming a more individualized class that we all have wanted from the very beginning.

SMN was my first level 75 job way back when, before the level 70 pacts existed, and before Fenrir was introduced into the game. I am just thankful for the continued updates and adjustments.

*Nods in agreement.* Sure, Summoner isn't perfect or as wanted as some jobs in a party.... But, anything is better than nothing. =) Perp cost -2 is awesome even if you don't leave the avatar full-time, it gives nice boosts for certain periods and I see it as a good thing.

Like to drop this in here. Carby Mitts are now fixored ^^ Happy time goes!

Thanks for that! I am going to move our Summoning Skill discussion here instead (from the complains thread: http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/?topic_id=5862&page=3#289561 )

So to get the last 21 points... I could just swap out my summoner's horn for my evoker's horn for +5 more points... that would leave 16 more... I guess merits are the only way to go at this point. But giving up my capped Elemental and Enfeeble would be difficult.

Maybe SE will allow more points for each merit category someday. :)

Yay! Can't wait to leave the office lol. :)

Yeah. You can hit 317 w/o merits, but you have to sacrifice a perp piece.

You'll need capped skill (269) and 48 more skill.
+12 Summoner's Bracers +1 (36 left)
+10 for Evoker's Ring (26 left)
+7 for Summoning Torque (19 left)
+5 for Astute Cape (14 left)
+5 for Marduk/Oracle legs (9 left)
+5 for Bahamut's Staff (4 left)

And then if you're not with a Sch or in Dynamis / another area with pretty constant weather, you can sub in the Elite Beret +1 / Evoker's Horn +1 / Marduk's for one of the 5's as well.

or as a sub for one of the 5's:
+3 for Summoning Earring
+2 for Summoning Belt (new with update)
