On Summoner's New "Ability" and avatars.

[Korpg]

A new ability that expends an additional amount of MP to shorten the recast time for blood pacts.

With this new ability, can you not make the cost more than the reward? +10 perp cost for -10 BP recast would suck. Something to the tune of +2 perp cost for -10 BP recast (+1 for every -5 BP recast) would be great.

Also, another thing, can you make sure that this will not be included in the cap? Meaning that with -15 BP recast gear, and this new ability (assuming the above stats), the total recast is 35 seconds, instead of the capped 45 seconds it is currently at.

We all would love the new avatars to not be Astral Flow exclusive also please. Something that can whack a mob and do a blood pact would be awesome, thanks.

Actually, Atomos is the PERFECT candidate for Astral Flow only. If you recall the history of Atomos on the summon end, it tends to be one of those "demi" type of damage dealers just like we have with Diabolos kind of.

With these game mechanics, having Atomos as a 2hr avatar would keep that avatar from being used....period.

Knowing SE, they would make the 2hr about the same as Ruinous Omen does. 1-5% total damage for all your mp....

I really hope that they make them "out and about" Avatars rather than 2hr ones.

The way it's worded sounds more like you activate said ability and each blood pact will take a bit more mp to use in return for a shorter recast timmer. I don't read it as increasing your perpetuation cost as long as it's active. I could be wrong though, the way they word things they could be interpreted many different ways.

[Inafking]

No more of this 2hr BS. Give us something that we can keep out or don't bother trolling us to complete missions.

[Bubeeky]

what if they made atomos like a portable maw or something? that would be pretty nifty imo lol

[Chronofantasy]

Mwuhaha, those two new avatars will force smns to complete WotG missions now. This won't place me as one of the only people in that low percentage that completed the storyline anymore. Watch one of the requirements be to have WotG completed before you can do the quests in the past to summon Atomos and Cait Sith.

I can't quite imagine Atomos as being a roaming avatar with extra abilities by your side, but Cait Sith seems like he can walk by your side with some BPs.

[Alkar]

I don't think Cait Sith will be 2hr only, it wouldn't make much sense considering the storyline and moveset (assuming they use the same moves shown in one of the missions). Atomos so far only has a move to absorb stats from you and give them all to Cait Sith so unless the two are linked we're probably getting 2 normal avatars.
That is if these changes go through.

[Olor]

Yeah 2hr summons are lamezors.
