Automaton and Regen III

[TruBlu]

I haven't played my PUP in awhile. But one thing that stuck out to me, is that it used to cast Regen III long time ago. But since i've been playing with it again, i hav yet to see it cast that. Did SE take it away, or is there a trigger you have to do to get it to cast?

If you fight easy prays or lower, it won't use regen spells, just cures. It only uses regen when fighting stronger ennemies (decent challenge and harder) like XP mobs.

It doesn't work in Campaign then
Does this mean it won't work on things that con Impossible to Gauge?

My muppet regens me just fine in campaign. You got Damage Gauge and light maneuver on (not sure if it helps, but I always have them on when soloing/campaigning)?
I've been doing campaings for nearly all of 58-69 PUP now (it's been on a break for two weeks though while I try make some money), the early 60s it never Regened me as I was taking so much damage it just spammed Cure IV-V. Now that the damage I take has settled it's Regen III'ing me nicely. <3 Campaign

On ITG mobs, the Automaton will only Regen you if the mob's true level would make it a high end DC (72 exp base) or higher. Apparently our tin cans can see the coding of what level mobs truely are.

hmm, my puppet never regens me in campaign either. I wonder why. I do have Dmg gauge on, and keep a white manuver up. All he does is enfeeble, heal, and cure.

don't campaign mobs just count as Easy prey to 75 with modded stats, but they check ITG? I heard that somewhere, but anyway the puppet will only regen you if you have the hate and the enemy with hate directed at you is EM or higher. Thats what I have noticed while playing the job , regen is not based on attachments or maneuvers. Its based on the enemy's level relative to your level.

Question about PUP in Campaign... do your frames gain skill, or is that totally blocked like it is for player skills?
I'd really like to finish my PUP, but only doing it in Besieged will take forever...

No skill ups in campaign for you or muppet.

But Vigilla just said their Muppet Regens them just fine in Campaign
Unless Vigilla you're mistaken?

I'm 69PUP though, if they are equivalent to EP to 75 they would still be at least EM-DC to me. I'll let you know in a couple of months if I still keep getting Regened at 75 (which seems unlikely according to the posts above). Campaign mobs check ITG so hard to tell exactly.
