Pretty sure my mule level 99 with 320ish uncapped SMN skill was getting over 3mins hastega.
Don't have access to it anymore so I can't double check.


(haven't kept up to date on new gear)
417 base skill +16 merits +127 from gear = 560.
Would need 40 more to reach the previous cap of PD (SE mentioned needing 600 SMN skill)
Of course more SMN skill gear in the future I bet, I went with the currently available BiS options.


There is no reason not to have more summoning magic.
I never remotely implied this.
I'm just looking to find out how/if SMN skill affects BPs and how, other than what's already known.
Namely does SMN convert to Pet Macc? And if it does, does it work for BP: Ward debuffs or just for BP: Rage?


so knowing more about this shouldn't affect your gear planning.
It so does.
Do you put an item with +19 SMN skill or one with +10 Macc in a certain BP set?
A SMN Skill +8 or a Pet Macc+7?
If Skill indeed converts to macc for both BPs it opens a lot of possibilities, whereas if it doesn't then it just doesn't matter wether you equip it or not during those BPs.
