Any news on Trial of Magian weapons @ 95?

[Insaniac]

Nah the moogle won't tell you what they are. Was the first thing I checked. =P

Ah, been very curious as to how effective O.cappa would be in abyssea after update.

the slug pet has about a 2% / minute auto regen trait <3 loving that

and widescan works in dynamis qufim as well

The JA sounds like a pretty big let-down as is. I'm not burning through jugs every 5 minutes for a slight increase to attack and defense (or anything other than +5 levels or something, honestly).

Will end up being highly situational, and only really used in BCNM's and stuff like that. I was hoping for something that I'd be using more often than not.

Have you tried charming anything? bugards? Roc, buffalo, etc? stuff we have not been able to charm before?

Is it only a boost in attack? make yourself level 90, use shasra, and use Wild Run, Kill level 0 mobs in beginning areas. IS the max melee greater than 499? is the max crit greater than 538?

If the answer is yes to these, then it is an increase in STR, not attack.

Thanks for the heads up OP. Outside of a couple of very particular situations I don't see this getting any usage, it doesn't sound like it's worth the jug expenditure to see regular use. I already have to bleed gil to be inferior to every other melee job, (I even farm my own supplies) and SE's answer to this is "Spend more Gil to keep being inferior!". I'm not going to see an increased invite rate with this, I don't think any other BST will either, it'll still be the same old low man groups/all BST spamming pets to win. If this is their idea of making us party oriented I can't wait to see what they do to make every other job even better in parties, just to keep the disparity consistent and guarantee that we're not even considered for a group situation.

E: Gerard sounds pretty awesome, the Tiger less so. The posted damage numbers sound pretty underwhelming compared to current pets that can consistently break 1k with their TP moves. Perhaps Roar is his saving grace.

I should have noted that I did all these tests completely naked. Like I said I'm not a BST so I don't know if there is any equipment that I could have been using to make the TP moves do more damage.

For anyone who has tested Run Wild, did you try to see if it had a haste or weapon delay effect? Just curious.

For me there wasn't an eyeballable attack speed increase.
