Beastmaster idea (nothing original :D)

[KameshK]

These ideas are nothing original. I though it would just be cool to create this image to show the possibilities of the Beastmaster in FFXIV. This is just my opinion & ideas, is there anything you would like to see?



-Weapon: Ax/shield
-Capture: In order to capture/use certain beasts you have 1) obtain a certain lvl
2) reduce their hp (similar to the moonfire faire event with the bombs & yes pokemon >.>)
- Similar to HW: all abilities are obtained from 30 below when unlocking job.
- Obtain the beasts: Use a crafted fruit/meal to pop a mob or go into a trial(might help the culinary/gatherers market )

Abilities
Scan: Scan the area for mobs. Can be great for hunts
Killer Instinct:Increases dmg by 10% to target/pet
Inner Beast: Increases attack speed by 10% to target/pet
Roar: Stuns Target
Legendary: acquired at lvl 60 these legendary pokemon, I mean...beasts can be captured/mounted.

I think the amount of outrage behind BST and the Legendary ability that you suggest would be monstrous (lol). SMN QQ about the Egi's being a pos by comparison, at least by looks, and the unfair nature of having cool mounts. Yeah, they could level the job, but since when did that matter to anyone illogical? For as neat of an idea that BST could be, the other jobs are just... bland lol.

im confused, though your icons look really awesome, but how are you supposed to capture these enemies? just auto attack them to death?

Consumable Pet Food very likely will not happen for the same reason arrows were removed when they rebuilt the game. Besides Pup > Bst and Automatons are already a thing ;p

[KameshK]

The food will only used to be to pop the beast initially, not to call them every time. Also with smn was thinking about Egis, they can always add more possibly. Legendary would be awesome to have though.

I could see using certain and a select few minions (3-5) being used in the same way as the lord of vermillion works. It's a mechanic in place that should need few adjustments to work in PvE setting.

LOL! I wouldn't be surprised after how the summons looked from FFXI to FFXIV

Like the DRK, MCH, AST jobs you have all the abilities from 30 down. So you can use another bst to fight and capture them. And not to death, you would have to decrease hp till they are weak, similar to pokemon style and the moonfire faire event where we had to capture a bomb.

Sad thing, Masekase_Hurricane might be right.
I personally would like them to learn how to deal with a pet class before they add new ones.
They killed SMN so yaaa.
