Glad to know that it lasts just as long as an unmerited Call Beast timer. That's very encouraging. Hope to find that there is also some defense in there as well, but I'll settle for a nice attack boost.

Tiger seems great, needing only 1 charge for paralyze. Not to mention some piercing dmg Ready attacks.

Some anecdotal info from my testing:

Both Razor fang and claw cyclone did about 650 damage in abyssea - mis on raptors with RR GH and Apoc atmas. With run wild up they did 750-800. Unfortunately the roar charge cost is the one I'm the least sure of. It could have been 2 or 3. =(

Both of the Slugs TP moves did around 200-300 damage. Didn't try them with run wild up.

Run Wild sounds like pretty much what I expected. A difference large enough to eyeball in FFXI is a pretty big difference.

I'd love to know if the slug's TP moves are affected by Run Wild, since the ability's effect on magic damage might give some hint about whether it's just attack and defense or if it's something more.

Yeah I was kinda rushing through most of the tests and didn't feel like waiting out the 15 minute timer =/

Those slug tp moves sound kickass, mind doing some testing on them. Get your self TP vs a different mob then open up with the HP down/bio move. Then don't attack any more till it wears off. So you can see how much it reduces the mobs HP by. aka how much damage it will do if done at the start of a fight.

Then a test on the def/attack down effect would be great.

Also another major question is does the slug absorb water damage, take massivly less water damage? Also does it get regen in rainy weather?

I can test that first set of questions for you but I'll leave the other 2 up to someone else. I'm not a BST I was just running wild in test mode kekekekekeke

Purulent ooze seems to work exactly like the normal monster version. 10% hp down and about a 10/tick bio. Run Wild didn't seem to affect the damage much but it's so low it's kind of hard to tell.

Gerard does not absorb water but is very very resistant. Regen during rain I did not test.

Also I double checked the charge cost for roar and I was wrong ; ; It's 2 charges. Sorry to get your hopes up.

Does the Paralyze effect from "Roar" seem very potent to you?

Looks like about 20% on TWs. Really hard to tell because there's no message when the effect wears off.
