    -3rd question: What thief trait give, just evade?
    -4th questions: What's the best way to increase dmg with 25fp? Str bonus, Attack +15%
    you should consider bulking up on Attack/STR plates or change it to war/ or drk/ to get some more attack out of (drk/ also makes it so your pet might get aspir cast at it instead of drain). I've done the enpetrify chigeo nd against the really heavey built elementals still hit for zero dmg. and only thing it wont proc on is greater bird that i know of.

    -1: I would give the same as a /war player. imo its not worth it on a chigeo since they attack pretty fast already.
    -2: No. you can only have one additional effect or spike effect at the same time. this only gets wierd with stoneskin and dreadspikes they stack in a wierd way, no drain effect until the stoneskin is gone.
    -3: with current level cap yes, and its useless unless you have a complete evasion build, and 58FP for pentro makes that impossible.
    -4: imo Attack Bonus > STR Bonus > STR+25 > Attack+15%
    Graz is right.

    1a(OP): Gives about the same as the job trait does for players. Being that the fights last only so long you can see DA fire about once ever 6 hits.
    1b(Graz): even though the attack rate is fast, it gives that already fast attack rate the ability to double attack. on a chigoe in particular, it's really noticeable. you get overlapping attack rounds. Since they're 100% melee, it's almost a raw 15% increase in damage with the advantage of more chances ot land En-Xxxx.

    2a: One at a time, Reccomend Petro, unlike sleep, it stays on when you hit it. It's like En-Sleep +2.

    3a: I think there was leiniency given to thief jobs, in that at 50 you get triple attack instead of at 55. as well, you get multiple evasion bonuses, being a chigoe, this is your asset, and should be enhanced if possible, they already start with an insane amount of AGI that subversively acts as an evasoin bonus.

    4a: Attack Bonus(you already have), then do the Str bonus for 23 FP.

    Nope, you cant get triple attack yet, nor can you get kick attacks, the only extra attack currently in play is counter and double attack. the thf traits does add a noticable amount of evasion, but alone its a waste of 12FP and yes you will notice the double attack procs, and in theory its more damage, but I still think you have to consider thank you need to hit harder, you'll aready attack plenty fast, and chigeo petro procs often, (I used to have one) so I'd suggest trying to bulk up on a way to not hit for zero and such. I'd suggest intstant blink, but you're most likely going to get it wiped by a ~ga. most smart casters have blink, and unless they open freeze, you arent going to stripe thier shadows before the nuke gets off, aergoa II unresisted will take a lv50 thf/- chigeo to less than 5%. If a corse casts it you are dead.

    Re: Couple of questions

    Even with stoneskin?


    Main reason why I wanted double attack is to increase the amount of hit and increase the chance to petrify my opponent.

    How potent is <Instant Haste> at level 50? Is it noticeable on a MNK/ type pet?

    What's the difference between:

    1. Elemental Magic Bonus
    &
    2. Elemental Magic Skill ? Which is a better choice?
