Summoner: Advanced Mechanic Testing

[Hartack]

Anyway, I could sufficiently collect the data for pet crit formula estimation. The garuda's base crit was different from master's base crit (5.3%) and the converting formula was also different.

Crit 341 (Summoner's Crit is 5.3%)
Swing 10092, Crit 848
Probability: 8.4 +- 0.5%

Crit 471 (Summoner's Crit is 14.4%)
Swing 10733, Crit 1539
Probability: 14.3 +- 0.6%

Crit 503 (Summoner's crit is 16.6%)
Swing 5000, Crit 775
Probability: 15.5 +- 0.8%


Approximated formula is:

Pet Critical Rate = 0.0443 x Summoner's Crit - 6.6745

* Summoner's Crit Rate = 0.0697 x Crit - 18.437 (from BLITZBALL)

I reexamined and confirmed that pet spellspeed are also contributed by master's spellspeed. It seems it works in the same manner as 2.16 (tooltip is unmodified but actual cast and recast are modified). I struck through some of my previous posts that was wrong.

Fortunately, my embarrassing struggle have left me the data collection and the neat way for analyzing. I will use them to reanalyze pet crit and spellspeed. (I updated pet crit information above).

Actually, I have overlooked (and misunderstood) the Judge's and Zamii's post. I feel ashamed so much!

I hope you don't actually feel ashamed. You came up with a brilliant method for testing.

I'm looking forward to more of your testing.

EDIT: just double checked and it is spur that resets stats and not rouse

That's good to know. I never thought to verify that it was Spur over Rouse. Guess it would be easy to check to see if the pet's HP changed by swapping for more VIT. Ty for that.

I checked all pet regarding abilities of SCH and SMN. I think it has already been reported somewhere, but summarizing here may be a good idea.

Here are the abilities which update pet stats:
Spur
Fey Light
Fey Glow
Fey Covenant

* Update occurs not only at the application but also at the disappearance of the buffs
* Removing master's buffs by right-click has no effect, which confirms only buffs on the pet are involved

Rouse and Fey Illumination do not update pet stats. It is because these ailities change percent modifiers but not change pet status directly like the other abilities.

We already had all these discussions like... 4 months ago.

My aim at the first was to estimate the master's crit and spellspeed effect on the pet quantitatively because I could not find any guide or threads having such information. However, since I am new to Summoner and lacking the knowledge about stats update mechanic, my testing led to faulty one, so that I summarized the information for my own reference.

If you know the pet status formula, it is greatly appreciated if you provide me the url link. This is not something ironic or torlling. If there has already been a report examining pet stats like Blitzball, I don't have to waste time any more. The link where pet stats updating mechanic information summarized are also welcome. I think there may be other important facts than what I summarized above.

The effect of Secondary stats on the pet looks to be about the same as the Master. I updated the OP to show what we could expect from
the Enhanced Pet Action mechanic, and where the stats seem to be heading for Summoner.
