Pankration FAQ?

[Courtney]

my coeurl had 30 FP on the plate after I took the photo, has 59 now.

The FP on the plate when you take the photo is the FP for the ability on the plate, not the FP of the mob.

Ok, quick quesiton about magic...
I gave my PLD crab (Who just hit level 10) WhiteMagicScrolls, and he has yet to even attempt any sort of White Magic use.
The only reason I can think he wouldn't try to heal himself is that his temperment is Aggressive and somewhat wild. Crabs already have MP, so that shouldn't be the problem, right?
Any help is appreciated ~

Yeah, get it down to atleast "somewhat defensive" and it'll start curing.

 

[Uzor]

also, your PLD will take less damage, evade more etc. if you put him in defensive stances, such as "Watch your enemy, then attack!" etc. A MNK pet rarely counters unless you have him in defensive stance.

So I'm guessing their temperment has something to do with the spells they cast/ how often they cast spells. My qutrub is 12 with blm scrolls on and I notice he rarely casts anything except poison. His temperment is Extremely Wild while Extremely Aggressive with discipline being Very Low. Any knowledge on this?

Since this is a FAQ thread, I figured I'd dig it up just to ask a quick question.

The FP Dispelling Attack.. Does anyone know if it removes the 'Instant' effects an opponent has?
For instance, if my opponent had 'Enaero' effect at the start of a fight, would Dispelling Attack get rid of it?

Orrrr does it only work for spells they cast on themselves, like if an opposing Paladin mob used Protect on itself..?

if it works like rdm dispel, which it should. It will remove any beneficial status effect the opponent has. But only one at a time.

I appreciate the input! ^^
I guess the best way to find out for sure is to test it, right?

Instant XXXXX is like having the spell cast on you, just before the fight starts. So yes. Dispelling attack will remove those effects.

assuming your monster uses it lol

Has anyone tested out the physical damage: sleep, or w/e its called? If this processes as often as the other en-like effects, it could be very good on maybe a MNK, or anything that attacks fast.

Also, it seems like the best course of action is to start with the lowest possible pet, with the highest possible lv abililities you want to use. Like i started a lv 4 raptor with lv 9 Attack bonus. It is lvl 9 now, and the attack bonus is well over 20, think 25. All abilities (with no + value) will lvl every fight regardless of how much exp, or whether you won or lost.
