Unleash/Run Wild/Kusamochi

I didn't know where else to put this, but I was pretty amazed when it happened lol Those are all back-to-back.

So what exactly did they do to pet weapon skills?

Haven't finished testing Tegmina Buffet, but:
Tegmina Buffet -> Onslaught = nothing
Onslaught -> Tegmina Buffet -> Darkness

I was able to get Tegina Buffet > Onslaught = Darkness to work. So that would make it Distortion.

The tooltip for most of the ready skills changed. A lot of them are Damage varies with TP now. Unleash 3000 TP + unleash JP 20% + Ready move JP 10% is gonna make some nice damage.

Had a argument years ago with a gm about this that bats aren't bird but they just couldn't understand the concept lol.

Maybe I missed this but was it listed elemental and dmg resist traits of the pets? I remember a year or two ago tanking foret wkr with shimmering broth(can't think of pets name) after everyone else there had wiped. I beleive in part because of resist traits. Didn't die till he finally got the crab with the one shot move.

Sickle Slash - Transfixion (light)

Pecking Flurry - Transfixion (light)

Big Scissors - Scission (earth)

Lamb Chop - Impaction (thunder)

Sheep Charge - Reverberation (water)

Frog Kick - Compression (darkness)

Haven't finished testing Tegmina Buffet, but:
Tegmina Buffet -> Onslaught = (edit: Darkness(Distortion (phunkism))
Onslaught -> Tegmina Buffet -> Darkness

I think that covers all of the lvl 119 pets.

Assuming we got the data correct

LVL 3 SC

Pentapeck <----> Onslaught = Darkness
Pentapeck <----> Primal Rend = Darkness

Tegmina Buffet <----> Onslaught = Darkness
Tegmina Buffet <----> Primal Rend = Darkness

Swooping Frenzy <----> Cloudsplitter = Light


LVL 2 SC (Relevent WS only)

Swooping Frenzy -----> Onslaught = Gravitation
Swooping Frenzy -----> Primal Rend = Gravitation
Ruinator ----> Swooping Frenzy = Fusion

Cloudsplitter ----> Pentapeck = Distortion
Pentapeck ----> Decimation = Fusion
Pentapeck ----> Mistral axe = Fusion

Ruinator ----> Frogkick = Gravitation
Ruinator ----> Somersault = Gravitation

Cloudsplitter ----> Tegmina Buffet = Distortion
Tegmina Buffet ----> Decimation = Fusion
Tegmina Buffet ----> Mistral Axe = Fusion

Recoil Dive ----> Rampage = Distortion
Sickle Slash ----> Rampage = Distortion
Pecking Flurry ----> Rampage = Distortion
Wild Oats ----> Rampage = Distortion

Recoil Dive ----> Calamity = Distortion
Sickle Slash ----> Calamity = Distortion
Pecking Flurry ----> Calamity = Distortion
Wild Oats ----> Calmity = Distortion

Recoil Dive ----> Bora Axe = Distortion
Sickle Slash ----> Bora Axe = Distortion
Pecking Flurry ----> Bora Axe = Distortion
Wild Oats ----> Bora Axe = Distortion

LVL 1 SC

Too many zzz

Let me know if those don't work.

So... is it safe to say that it's almost impossible to get an ilv 119 axe for a solo returning player whithout friends or LS?

Not impossible but would be hard. Your best bet might be famr dynamis once or twice and pay a merc group for a delve win and the axe.

Amazing guide. Very warm, extremely well laid out and presented and great info!

I had no idea about anything BST so this was a treat.

I'm very surprised that BST has access to such potent debuffs like Corrosive Ooze, -33% attack and def that's huge! The ability to debuff with anmnesia and disease is pretty rare too. And killer instinct just gets crazy. What is your opinion on BST's ability to add strong debuffs for hard fights in things like Delve and Incursion?

I did one these moves with the slug that lowered hp in morimar wkr back when it took a large group to kill. Was funny as hell when everyone freaked out as it looked like he suddenly healed back up.

Warlike Patrick can be used to open Light skillchain by combining Brain Crush -> Tail Blow for Fusion.



Edit: Tegmina Buffet has secondary property Detonation:

Swooping Frenzy has secondary property Reverberation:

Pentapeck Light primary property:

Hands down the greatest BST guide I have ever seen (or any guide for that matter). Very nice for a returning player such as myself as I've been out the game for a while. Congrats on a job well done!

Well one option is you can get a rather significant amount of pet regen on them.

Can't really go wrong with anything. The Arco and Taeon set is going to be Best in slot for pretty much everything depending on augments.

You'll need a

Taeon DW set to replace what you have now for solo
Taeon TA or Arco DA + str and atk for mucking around with trusts
Taeon or Arco Full acc or hybrid set

You'll need to make one of the sets all str and another dex or ws dmg for ruinator and onslaught

etc etc.

I'm waiting to see what the cap on MAB augments for Acro and Taeon gear is from snowdim stones because that augment combined with WS damage 2-3% and bonus base stat augments could make for best in slot magic WS gear. Especially for something Like Taeon hands which have native 7 MAB to start with.

Also I can see the new gear also being top for DD pet sets. I see pet haste going up to 5% per piece, coupled with pet attack/accuracy and double attack can make this the best gear for physical ready moves (outside hands for tp bonus) and pet/master hybrid sets. I don't see much use for rarer and singular use items like wisent kecks, mirke wardecors or totemic helm if these augments can give equal or better pet stats while giving the master ilvl stats with small dd bonuses. Some pieces, however, like Durgai Leggings do give some bonuses that can't be replicated, like its tremendous master and pet accuracy with enmity bonuses.

At this point my BST has way too much gear between physical/magical WS sets, all sorts of tp and pet sets, and ja enhancing gear so I don't know how feasible it will be to carry all this stuff, let alone pay for it.

And I was wondering why my pet hasn't been attacking at machine gun speed. Oh well I capped pet haste JP first, when it's fixed it's just more greatness.

Also I noticed this wasn't in the guide: Totemic Jackcoat (+1) isn't listed with the Enhances Reward III bonus in the reward section. I knew the bonus was always kinda wonky back on Monster +2 body but does the AF119 body currently work for removing debuffs?

Yeah, looking forward to actually getting the benefits of the Job Points we spent...

Added Totemic Jackcoat to the list - thanks! :)

And the 119 Jackcoats remove all the listed debuffs, yes.

This is to Bomberto I agree with you i might do couple Taeon pieces with pet pdt acc atk but only few pieces since stuff cost so much and use few arco pieces for melee if i get right aug but i didnt want to get carried away spending millions trying to get perfect aug if i beats gear i have now i will replace it if not going to stick with what i have i have so much bst gear running out of room too plus other jobs to help out linkshell since most content i cant use bst or have use job benifits the party. If falkirk puts some of the new skirmish gear into his sets then i will do the same i like to be the best i can be as a bst and he one of the best out there and on his server.

It's basically like Phunkism/Bomberto said. With the right augments you're going to be replacing a lot of your current gear, so I think the limiting factors are going to be your inventory/wallet/patience.

Having said that, there's now a table at the beginning of the Gear Sets section for Alluvion armor, and if anyone has data on stones/ranges feel free to post here and let us know. There's a bunch of data on slits right now, so could use dim and orb info especially, but anything is good as long as it pertains to Acro/Taeon. :) Thanks.
