    Do avatars/spirits benefit from the SMN's atmas in Abyssea? Has anyone tried, say, ice spirit with Ultimate+Beyond? You may not be able to predict precisely what it will cast but you know it will be ice, so it will get the extra benefit from Beyond.

    I always thought the reason spirits had higher perp is that the cost of their spells don't come out of the SMN's MP pool; if you want to have an avatar cast a spell you have to BP and use MP for it.

    In theory, yes, that would work. Have I tried it? No.

    That could be the reason why spirits cost so much to use.

    Yes. I've had quickcast from Apoc proc on ancient magic. The spirits do NOT immediately cast again.

    The problem with L90 spirits is that they dont actually seem to *be* L90. The stats look no better than L75.
