Version Update changes to PUP

[Miruyasha]

The following changes have been made to puppetmaster:

* Hand-to-hand combat rating has been raised from rank C to B+.
* The puppetmaster's level will now be factored into the extent that maneuvers enhance automaton stats.
*The rate of enhancement will be adjusted for when puppetmaster is used as a support job, or when a level restriction is in place.
* The effects of the following attachments have been adjusted:
Armor Plate / Armor Plate II / Auto-Repair Kit / Auto-Repair Kit II / Mana Tank / Mana Tank II
* The performance of automaton frames has been adjusted.
* The ranged accuracy of automatons is no longer affected by distance to the target.

So...from the sounds of it, mannys will give more stat boosts depending on level and our autos "performance" has been enhanced. Can't wait to see what this means.

does this mean they get asuran fists now?

 

[Miruyasha]

We do not. I don't think SE'd give us Asuran Fists anyway since we have Stringing Pummel.

 

[Bangarang]

Probably not going to get Asuran Fists as we can't equip Knuckles(except lolScogan's). I do hope they will give PUP a trial weapon. I mean, our best WS is Dragon Kick unless you climb Nyzul.

I am excited to see an increase in stats boosts while using mannys. I'm probably going overboard, but using SShot frame and getting like +10 AGI per wind manny(@75 of course)... {Yes,please.} @_@

 

[Miruyasha]

I'm only 61 but I'm workin my way up there. That'd be sweet though. Getting an increase of 2 sorta seems...a bit pointless. Sure it helps a bit but not as much as it could. I'm really interested in what they did to the autos to enhance performance. Like did they give them more defense or something? We'll have to find out lol

 

[Miruyasha]

Looking at the wiki page for maneuvers, it looks like @75 there's a flat increase of 5. No info yet on anything else they changed with the update other than our B+ in h2h

 

[Bangarang]

It's insane that you get can Dragon Kick at level 68 now. O_O Now I really have no excuse not to climb Nyzul. T_T Anyone wanna join? lulz

 

[inyashaz]

I need to climb as well. I'm on floor 21 if you wish to join me.

The overload supression on the Mythic could be amazing if the maneuvers add cumulative bonuses (6 stacked like maneuvers = +30)
