A Puppetmaster Suggestion.

My Comment was in regards to if you're meleeing with your PUP

While it may not seem like a lot, compared to the nill-visible benefits your PUP receives, it adds up.

Here is your mistake sir. Yes you gimp your overall dmg. No the benefits for the automaton is not close to nothing, unless you dont have the correct attachments equiped.

Actually, the DPS you lost is largely compensated by the gain for your maton. I know that like 99% of ppl who think something, you wont believe a stranger so i suggest you to parse yourself (you and your maton), you will see that you are wrong on this point.

Which Frame? The only exception i can think would be BLM Frame, where Reducing Spell Recast time and Gaining MAB would be a good boost. But I feel you're underestimating the Damage you deal as PUP if you're receiving buffs. If you're solo of course its not the biggest deal, If you're getting Haste/Marches like you would in a good party situation its where the problem begins to arise.

i will go parse this, if anything to strengthen my belief i am correct. If it turns out you're correct, I see it as no big deal, because regardless of the benefit, Keeping Maneuvers up does still require the sacrifice of 10% of the PUPs-Masters DPS, Which is i feel a problem for the job.

Either way knowledge is knowledge, and if i am incorrect i will in fact admit it. Would you like me to test in or out of Abyssea? or both?
