I'd imagine they serve the same purpose as the poison fungus and paralyze blossoms? Which is to say, very little.

Edit: nevermind. Apparently I can download the free trial client and go from there.

anyone know if ionis buffs effect pets?

[fantasticdan]

Automaton doesn't get the save TP, so I doubt any of it applies.

So I just picked up a Hunahpu and my skill seems to fail to raise. My parrying goes up but not the axe, is this normal or a glich?

[dasva]

It's normal

[dejet]

any reason? do we at least gain the acc/attack from it?

[dasva]

Yes and yes. It's all in the update thread. naakual one too I think

[Kaisha]

any reason?

Because they only want the +Skill applying to the hand it's equipped to iirc. It's so you can't essentially stack x2 of the same +Skill when dual-wielding.

[dasva]

Also makes it so you pretty much have to offhand something of similar amount of skill or not make full use of it making it basically dicking over 1hders

[dejet]

guh, thanks for the info. I have been reading both threads for the most part(posting in both as well). Must have happened when I was at work. That really does suck, I can not think of how to make the best of bst then. that axe skill would've killed for us. Now I need to think of what to off hand

I guess it is just like a lot of the posts I saw, SE just does not want want dual wielders to be worth it anymore(still) .

In regards to this new "Magic Damage" term that is showing up on the test server and on the Tamaxchi; is this the same as the term on the Magian Staves but just not restricted to a single elemental affinity?

I'm crashing on login on the test server. Does anyone know which plugins are unstable for the test server atm?

[Helldemon]

Nvm. Don't know how I missed it, checked over the list several times lol.

For relic +1 upgrade (NQ > +1), is it 1 vana day or is it JP midnight wait?

Forgotten stuff are skyrocketing so I'd like to save gil and hope its vana day.

"Magic Damage" is a value that's added directly to the base damage of the spell, before Int/MAB/affinity/etc. It's highly potent on lower level spells because you're taking them from a base damage of like 20 to 120, however it's much less so for higher level spells since they have a much higher starting value (eg: going from 700 to 800).

[dasva]

How do you determine if it's before or after int? Shouldn't be any difference between V+D+Mdint and V+Mdint+D or am I missing something?

For Order Up, where you can get Naakual drops from having KIs: If you kill the first 3 and the new 2 again after getting items from the quest, can you repeat and get more items from NPC?
