    [Refiled] ARR Zodaic Summoner Bug

    When submitting a bug report, please use the below template and thoroughly fill out the necessary information.

    Date & Time: 1/11/2022
    Frequency: Very easy to replicate
    World name: Mateus
    Character name: Lina Darkwater
    Class/Level: Summoner 90
    Party or solo: was in a party
    In-game time: 11:33
    Area and coordinates: Mor Dhona (X: 16.8, Y: 15.6 )

    Steps:
    1. Have the ability to Summon Ifrit II, Summon Garuda II, or Summon Titan II
    2. Try to summon any of the three to have them kill a marked npc (like Hexing Harrier) for ARR book relic credit with abilities such as Ifrit's Inferno, Garuda's Aerial Blast, or Titan's Earthen Fury.
    3. Enemy dies to one of those three effects, but credit isn't awarded to the player.

    Part of the the reason this bug happens is that when a summon, such as titan in the example screenshot below, is summoned and deals damage to an enemy such as a silkmoth in the example, the enemy's name is still considered yellow instead of red. Which means the summoner does not get credit for using their summons when doing the nine Zodiac Braves Books if the summon actually kills the enemy while equipped with a Veil of Wiyu Animus.

    Edit: I have tested this with a weekly ARR hunt, my Summon Ifrit II one shots it, and I do get credit. But with the mobs I need to kill for the Zodiac Braves Books, I don't get credit. I wonder if those mobs are not flagged to give credit if killed in such a manner.



    This screenshot btw is because I am long since past that part of that quest chain as the prior filing was in early January.

    You could probably just use Ruin, Energy Drain, Fester or go up to it and auto-attack with your book, but it may be less annoying if the summons are made to count.

    That is actually what I had to do when I was in a party with another as we were completing our relics together back in January. It made the Animus section for the relics that much more slow and tedious of a process.
