Hey Guys.

Has anyone testet as far as to do more like?

I mean, whats the strongest jug pet ready ability we have availible if it MUST be AOE (not single or fan-shaped)?

And if you have the informationa availible: Are there any ATMA that make the move stronger?

Regards

I agree with the above poster. However, you could always try Charged Whisker and set Blinding Horn/Lion/Ultimate and see what you get.

Charged whisker is fairly mediocre, I've seen reports of 600~700 damage with atma, and it generally does 250~300 without.

The strongest AoE is probably Whirl Claws, I've used it for Magian trials before and it was reliably doing 1.2~1.8k on EP mobs. Not sure which atma you'd want to get the most out of it in Abyssea though. Attack+ might be the best bet (unless it can crit?)

If Charged Whisker was ever as strong as Blue Mage's what fun you could have with a beast burn party lol.

These posters are all correct. In fact, in line with Stefanos, I've used 2/3 of the atmas he listed as I don't have the third and hit about 400 per Charged Whisker in Kon against Tonberries. Now, with that 3rd atma, and the AF3+1/+2 gloves, you could push it a bit higher :). But even if you go the Whirl Claws route, make sure to grab those gloves as soon as possible they're absolutely fantastic. I hope that helps you!
