Something no one talks about

[Khidir]

Can someone help me understand this on allahazam and this one there are no mob comparisons that we are able to control

such ass... (no its not accurate)

Hare- most evasive of a jug pets with lowest delay

Sheep- least evasive hits with decent delay low hp

Tiger- heaviest hitting mob of all for 30 cap ballsita bcnm whatever

Im not saying that we take the time to make mobs into a weapon chart with delay, mobs job (if they have one), etc

but can i get like the stats that separate one mob from the others including its ws abilities such as

Funguar- most of its aoe abilities can hit all aerial targets except frogkick
has decent evasion
recommended usage: bcnm cop etc.

am i asking 2 much? or did se not take the time to get mobs some unique characteristics? (i would try myself but bst is 18 so some help would be appreciated and maybe someone can make a sticky on it)

mobs with dbl atk FTW!

[Khidir]

Um... your not making much sense:huh:

[Omni]

are you talking about jug pets? or just pets in general?

i personally like leeches and jellies, as do any other bst out there.
both hit hard, both take dmg very well and both have good variety of aoe. i particularly like Acid Mist aoe the leech does. attack down is awesome.

search the boards, their was a post awhile back about jug pets pro's an cons.mainly before the new jug pet updates the best jugs were C.C because they capped ouyt at 75. while others stop alot lower.

here is some interesting things about the jug pets you may find interesting. shows when they cap, their abilities, what crafts to make them.

ty that does help but why cant se give us a much broader range of pets to control like leeches jellies hounds jugs? probly to encourage us to tame teh "wild vanadiel" than use mass produced stuff like rabbits and sheep rather than rams and scorpions >.<

Hounds are undead and Jugs are arcana, nothing can be controlled from those groups.

[Omni]

yup. leeches and jellies are probably the best 'wild' pets you can have.

Bolded the word the previous posters must have misunderstood. I don't think he meant Jugs as in the Pot-type arcana mobs, but rather BST Jugs (Summoned Pets). Just clearing things up^^ I agree with him though. BST would be so much more fun if you could always bring the type of mob you wanted with you, instead of relying on the types of the area. FFXI just doesn't create that bond between BSTs and their pets :\

I would REALLY like a jug for a cactuar that wasnt lvl 75. Wild cactuars are the best pets in the game. 3 bsts with them is a sight to see. Asides from that I would like to have a much reduced jug pet timer on top of a wider variety of jug pets.

[Khidir]

i meant we can control strong stuff like leeches and jellies but we cant control stuff like dragons scorpions and such i should edit my stuff sry for confusion lol

[Kafeen]

You can control scorpions, they make good pets.

Or did you mean from Jugs again?

[Khidir]

i meant jugs for jellies leeches dragons scorpions rams stuff like that man im bad for mts sry

[Omni]

maybe b/c they dont fit into a jug? ^^;

[Kafeen]

maybe b/c they dont fit into a jug? ^^; I dunno, leeches are smaller and squigier than sheep.

[Khidir]

bumping this thread since RD may have something to add to it like how good pets ws's are and such

yes i know its sorta old but any more info is greatly appreciated

[Eseuldor]

Well...dragons are rather intelligent. The common trend with SE is if it has a bit of intelligence (from the traditional stadnpoint), you can't charm/call beast it. That being said, yes I fully agree and hope that we can see a leech or slime jub one day. Scorpions...meh, there DEF is too soft for me personally. Chopsuey scratched scorps off of my list. But...I have always wanting a sapling pet my self. Sprout Smack rocks. But then again, there goes that trend by SE of not giving us semi-intelligent pets. Since Saplings apparently grow into Treants and all.

Diremite jugs prz. ...OH WAIT!

Well in that case, give me a Dhalmel jug, I'll be cool.
