That would be stellar for our pocketbooks. Unfortunately, I don't see SE giving us that much. I'm thinking it will be more stance related, like send pet into defensive mode or offensive mode.

If anybody played Dark Cloud 2 (old game when i was kid) you remember Monica was able to transform into monsters and was able to evolve in stronger ones..So i was thinking maybe Beastmaster can get transform so their pet can evolve into a stronger pet.

Something like DRG's spirit link would be cool. I don't know about other BSTs but I find myself subbing DNC anymore in lieu of NIN so HP recovery wouldn't be much of an issue. Although considering jug pets and charmed mobs have like 5 times our own HP I don't know if that could properly be implemented. :(

I would REALLY like a spirit link type ability. It will suck for the people making bank off of pet food, but I think it is needed since every other pet job can do it (less smn who can just re-summon and have full HP).

I am not getting my hopes up too much, but an ability to do a ready move without using charges would be nice as well. A move to transfer BST TP to the master would be cool too.

Why something like DRG Spirit Link? Spirit Link is used to cure the Wyvren. BST already have Reward. PUPs have to use repair oils for Repair. And no, SMN doesn't have a cure avatar move except for a blood pact that does AoE cure.

New pet command... Hmm...

Rage - Recast; 10mins (Duration; 5mins, or until pet Disengages.)
Puts pet into Rage mode.

lol yeah right...

DRG don't use their Wyvern to tank mobs. When your pet has 5000+ HP and you can only give it a pet food like every 1.5 minutes for ~350HP and a very very very light regen it makes sense. There really needs to be a better way to cure our pets or at least a way improved pet food.

No, but there's a reason Call Beast is such a short recast.

And if you have the right gear set up, you can get ~600ish Reward. Though yes, that is rather small for pets. But BST is meant to switch between pets when killing higher level monsters.

And there's Reward enhancing gear out there too. I just macro them in. My Rewards and just over 500 now with a zeta cookie and I'm still working on it.

When you're trying to solo NMs 5 mins is rather slow (mine's fully merited but obviously not everyone's is).
If straight soloing anyway.
My pinning method on bst works fine with timers D:

Not to mention, NMs hit quite hard. Depending on what you are fighting 100-300 damage per hit. If you are rewarding 600HP seems rather pointless. Especially on a 1.5min timer (or 1m15s timer if you wasted 5/5 merits).

I do 805-835HP /Reward

New Pet command ? Seppuku or Kamikaze : Sacrifice Pet's HP for kill Monster
NIN can lost Mijin Gakure too :p

5000HP×18 BST = 90,000 HP down !! so if CB up , BST can CB and call another pet for fight

i wouldn't mind this as long as it wasn't affected by the distance between me and pet. Open up a lot of kiting options.

Wouldn't mind a little mini pokemon game myself. I'd be ok with taking up inventory with rare/ex balls that held my pets and let me make them stronger.

Maybe it'll be a JA called 'Pokemon' and will turn beastmaster into a Pokemon trainer.

Maybe something similar to Chain Affinity that will allow SC with pet TP moves? Unlimited Shot type ability for jugs would be nice, too. *Wishful thinking*

My guess is a snarl-like ability intended for charmed pets (otherwise the description sounds just like Snarl)

http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/event/vanafes2010/index.html

quoting the 2nd entry for BST:
Quote:
We also plan on expanding beastmasters' tactical repertoire with abilities that allow them to manage enmity by transferring their own enmity to their pets, and some fresh additions to the roster of charmable monsters.

Then again, it could be something completely different. Only time will tell!
