    Didn't someone in the FFXIAH thread test that a few months ago when I asked it and posted that it was the other way around?
    I'm too lazy and never tested it myself but when I asked some guy tested it and came out with:

    1) Bolster doesn't apply retroactively, need to re-cast bubbles
    2) Bolster doesn't apply to Entrust
    3) Bolster deactivates automatically on the already cast bubbles (i.e. if a bubble is cast with Bolster, it will lose its double potency when Bolster fades on the player who cast it)

    Since people were reporting different Bolster behaviours on Geo vs Indi I also asked to test that and reply was that no, it was the same for both. Don't forget that, for GEO bubbles, Bolster also increases the HP of the Luopan.
    Widened Compass activates retroactively instead, and automatically fades of course.


    Now I didn't test myself as I said (Lazyyy) so I just trusted what was said in the thread. Where did you get your info from?
    Would be nice to hear I've been doing it wrong all these past months lol! XD

    Its pretty easy to test:
    Cast Indi-Fury, check attack
    Use bolster, check if attack changes (it doesnt), it only changed when I recasted Fury

    Before I submitted my earlier post I did exactly this and it did change.



    There, tested again. It took a few seconds for the attack change to show, as evidenced by the timestamp, but it does change retroactively. That said I still wait to cast a luopan until after bolster for the bonus HP.

    You need to recast the luopan with Bolster active, but you don't have to recast the Indi-spell.

    Here's an example of casting Indi-INT and Geo-MND then using bolster (no equipment on after casts):

    Just wanted to confirm this, since it seemed like there was some vague doubt.
    **Bolster retroactively applies to Indicolure spells.
    **Bolster does not retroactively apply to Luopans. They must be recast to receive their Bolster bonuses.
