    Alter Ego(Trust): Rainemard Magic Burst Bug?

    Platform: Windows 8, PC
    ISP: Cox Communications
    Type of Internet Connection: Cable
    Internet Connection Speed: <forgot..>
    Date & Time: 10/16/2014
    Frequency: Occasional
    Character Name: Shyuko
    Race: Mithra
    World: Carbuncle
    Main Job: PLD
    Support Job: WAR
    Area and Coordinates: Bhaflau Thickets, <forgot coordinates>
    Party or Solo: Party, duo with friend a used 3 Trust summons.
    NPC Name: Rainemard
    Monster Name: Greater Colibri
    Steps:
    1. Rainemard used Burning Blade
    2. Friend closed a Fusion skillchain with Blade: Jin
    3. Rainemard then casts Enfire and immediately recasts Enblizzard(since Colibri are weak to ice magic he defaults Enblizzard on them)

    Additional Notes:
    I cannot successfully reproduce the bug all the time as it seems to have certain conditions where as he thinks he can Magic Burst, but is incapable of it with use of Enchantment spells.

    So far Burning Blade into Blade: Jin(Fusion) seems to trigger it a lot if not always). I will have to test more on this. Also I should note that there is no Magic Burst damage being dealt. It's simply a bug where he casts an elemental enchantment spell of that same element the skill chain was.

    I would also like to note that Rainemard will not use Distract or Distract II if his accuracy is high enough to land hits on the current target with high success rate. He will not use it if other party members seem to have an issue hitting. May need to look into this more, but I have been using him while helping friend level her Ninja from level 55~75 via Level Sync and only ever seen him use Distract probably once or twice. (Mind you we did duo Incredibly Tough monsters also).

    Please look into both issues.

    Just did some more testing with the skillchain/magic burst situation.
    1. Friend opened with Blade: Jin
    2. I closed with Red Lotus Blade for Liquefaction
    3. Again Rainemard starts casting Enfire a second after I used Red Lotus Blade to close skillchain
    4. Rainemard then immediately recasts Enblizzard.

    Enfire served no purpose at all when he did this, there was no auto attack between that and recasting Enblizzard.

    Seems any form of Fire-based skillchain is 100% bugged where Rainemard will try to magic burst with Enfire.
    I have been doing these skillchains nonstop for a while and he always tries to Enfire magic burst them.
    Will try other element based skillchains now and see what else is bugged...

    Light seems to also trigger this.
    1. Rainemard used Savage Blade to open
    2. I closed with Knights of Round for Light skillchain
    3. Rainemard began casting Enfire the moment I used Knights of Round then followed back up with Enblizzard

    Now in regards to Rainemard supposedly using Distract/Distract II and Refresh. I have not once seen him cast Refresh on himself. In this entire time I have been out here testing these skillchain/magic burst bugs. He hasn't used Distract yet either.
    Can we have his AI looked at, please? I think I have submitted enough evidence to warrent some looking into his AI settings at the least with this post.
