    Beastmaster Magic

    Well , i was in sacrarium last night to kill some stegos for a codex, and i saw another BST there. He was JP, and whenever he would sic the gazer on the steg, it would cast 2 spells instead of one. I asked him how, he said "Fight -> Sic Fast", i got it to work once, but after that i couldn't. Is there a consistent way to do this?

    No, sometimes it'll cast 2 spells, sometimes it'll cast one.

    Sometimes it'll start casting 1 spell, stop, and then cast another instead.

    im only a 40 bst.. but from my experiences charming hecteyes, they will use magic whenever they dont have TP to use a TP move

    farmed alot of eyes as whm/bst and it was always fun starting a fight with AM being cast

    Yeah all magic casting pets do this, what im saying is this bst had a way to make it cast TWO spells at the start of a fight. Also, i have no idea what that last post says.

    I've messed with this a lot and haven't gotten anything consistent. It almost seems completely random, as I've tried Sic from different distances with and without tp, and the results are always different for me.

    Sometimes 2 casts.

    Most of the time 1.

    Sometimes 1 starts but never completes, and the eye changes its mind and casts something else.

    I did a fair amount of hecteyes vs. magic pots leveling as bst. Often I'ld get an extra number on a xp chain when:

    Magic pot starts casting Flood
    Hecteyes casts stun
    Hecteyes starts casting flare

    Of course it's been a while so I don't remember the name of the magic pot or the hecteyes. They were CoP hecteyes though so I used them as pets instead of prey b/c of the catharsis move.

    The do do it some times. I'm not 100% sure what actually makes them do it.

    I seem to have gotten the timing down pretty well, if you are almost out of range of fight when you do it, it will often times do the 2x thing, just gotta mess with it a bit.

    Also, this is sometimes awesome
