Curor buffs for pets?

[Coldbrand]

But then how else would my wyvern die instantaneously against Cirein-Croin and with the newly added (annoying) reliance on him how else would I lose a ton of DPS? And how do you expect the community staff to keep ignoring this issue if they don't keep not responding to these threads and the devs keep on not addressing the issue?

Well, not even players need cruor buffs, if that is what you are talking about. The idea to give pets the buffs is just for balance reasons. That pet jobs shouldn't be worse than no-pet jobs.

And yea, songs and rolls should have worked on pets from day one. SE just don't have the slightest clue about balancing jobs. Or rather, I don't think they even count pets as part of the game.

You're missing my point entirely - Adjustments to Abyssea, while nice, aren't really needed. My only personal gripes with it are losing buffs on DC (being fixed), Bastion ending seconds after starting due to rolfcopterweak NPCs, and camping timed spawns for Empyreans. All 3 of theses issues have been dealt with to a degree (the 1st one slated to be axed entirely so yay on that point) but again, I'm digressing - Abyssea is DONE. We're moving back outside of it for the 91~99 endgame content, which so far is looking to be voidwatch where we thus far don't have God Mode buffs.

Abyssea isn't about to lose popularity any time soon, but neither is it going to be the primary focus for level 99 players. That's why I don't feel it should be the focal point of future updates. The odd buff & here is nice but not a priority.

All that said, I will add that I much prefer Voidwatch's approach to staggering and would like to see Abyssea and Dynamis adjusted to mirror it in so far as to remove the TP/Casting stipulations. Shinryu is particularly aggravating to stagger for example (his drop rates are ridiculous as well, even with Blue Stagger but I highly doubt SE will be adjusting that, ever.)

Back to the original point - I'm not so sure pets even need cruor buffs. BST can already wipe the floor with several of the nastier NMs with Dipper Yuly and Avatars apparently get the full benefit of Ducal Guard at 100% HP?

The extra stats would however be much appreciated on automatons & wyverns as they're relatively frail compared to the other two but how often do you see DRG or PUP used outside of EXP burns or the few people who refuse to play another more useful job? (Note: I'm not hating on DRG or PUP, just pointing out that there are far more efficient jobs for getting things done in Abyssea)

Voidwatch is honestly not interesting in any way. I checked one of the atmacites.

lvl 1: 1% HP, 1 STR, 1 INT
30k cruor later you can get
lvl 2: 1% HP, 1 STR, 2 INT

It is like I just look at it and say... "That won't make a single difference, I'll just ignore atmacites completely".

Atma is the only thing SE ever did right. It is a shame we are now heading downhill again for bad content that will make you wish you quit already.

I should probably add that I share your opinion that the staggering has improved from Abyssea, but that is the only thing since Abyssea that has been better.

They should make the rest of the game in abysea atmas god mode - end of story. Really there is no reasons at all to go back to the ancient retarded mode of 10 years ago. Abysea is now and it should be implemented everywhere. And yes to cruor buffs to pet, avatar, wyvern and automaton. I doubt they will do anything about this though. When it comes to pet based job, SE attitude has always been FU and screw you.

Dynamis is pretty much like Voidwatch to some extent.

There is no TP/Casting Stipulation in Dynamis. You can proc any time at all, Even during 2hours. (which incidentally removes their 2hour effect too, test yourself with a THF or PLD lol).

I think Dynamis' proc system was probably one of the better, Its just the % proc on WS/Magic is too low, JA is just right though...

inoright? Im just glad the gear from it is either buyable or worthless so i dont have to bother doing it. Voidwatch was so boring to me.

Approve of thread.

I find voidwatch to be about the third most fun content. But I can still not say I disagree with you that it is boring. I'm starting to assume that I've just experienced it all by now, and SE won't be able to add new content worth my time.
