SMN Update Testing

[DAKPluto]

Well, the merit BPs have been proven to have the 15% chance of bonus on day/weather like spells, so at least the merit BPs get the bonus. But yes, I'd like to see it extend to all the BPs also.

I've always wondered that too, it would certainly be nice

It's the same reason wearing a Askar Korazin won't give my wyvern +12 ATT and Store TP.

That's not even close...Obis state gain Full benifit of the day/weather bonuses...Askir is a straight forward explination to your character.

Most are explained by "Pet:" command, but if it did that then PUP would also benefit from it, i just think obi should apply to all aspects of whatever is casting magic, weather it's you or your avatar.

well, because not a single piece of gear works with avatars unless it says avatar:


And because Sundi hates that we touch carby at night.

Hurray 1/3! Hopefully I am as lucky on getting a second one and a Pet: Attack +5 earring so I don't have to redo it 100 times. Should make for some pretty nice 75 BPs with 5/5 MAB merits, 2 of these earrings + Nirvana

Wow nice O_O

[Shalafi]

Go go SMN burn puddings...

I haven't merited any of those smn bp but I might in the near future. Not sure which ones to get though.

I chose pet mab+7/pet mag acc+7 and -2 avatar cost on my Acp body since never wanted to pay the 5mill~10mill for a penance robe. I went outside of whitegate to do some testing on those Attercops. Without the Acp body was doing average of 1120~1130 (no tp) with Windblade which is 5/5. I have 2 merits into magical attack for smn everything else went to mostly attack and acc. With the Acp body i did average of 1200~1210 (no tp). The new acp body + that diamond earring that gives another +2 pet mab could give you total of 100 damage extra or less depending on the mob's elemental resistance. At least its damage you can see where as the people who picked pet attack+15 you wont notice that damage. Not saying its wrong to get the pet attack+15 though. Would like to see numbers with Nirvana but im still a good while away before i get it.

Im also excited about that new hmp+5 rainbow obi from azure key. I currently have +40mp healing with gear then if you add clearmind5 job trait that would be another +27mp. I have been getting azure key everyday but no luck yet. Did get one rainbow obi but had +4 mind on it.

[Gutsu]

this came from the ACP final mission?

Comes from Ivory key. Obtained by beating "Those who Lurk in the Shadows III" Acp mission.

O.o WOW!

Question: Let's say you beat the missions and get a Ruby Earring with some odd stats and a Ruby Ring with random stats.

Can you regain the keys and

1) Get another Ruby Earring/Ruby Ring with some stats without dropping the previous.

2) Get another Earrin/Ring at all, no matter what it is?

Sorry if this has been asked before.

I want this so badly, especially for my PUP. 0/5 so far on anything good from Fei'Yin. At least getting the Mark of Seed isn't too bad, and the BC fight is stupidly easy.

Ok, Did Shiva Testing on a REAL mob.

uh here,

My guess is for the same reason avatars take damage from their own element and don't have an inherent en-spell of their element.

I'm not too sure but they don't have a rare tag on them so guessing you can have multiples, hopefully anyway!

I know nothing about SMN, I mean completely nothing.

Does the Pet: Magic Attack Bonus actually apply to their physical bloodpacts? Is there even a difference between magical and physical bloodpacts for the meritable bloodpacts?

Something else that should be taken into considaration, no reason why they can't ABSORB there OWN element, i remember watching gaurda take a 400 damage Areoga 3 from a Ghrah, 400 fucking damage from her OWN element, how dumb is that. you cast wind on a wind based ghrah or anything wind elemental you'll ALWAYS get resisted or absored, no matter how much MAB/INT you have..
