NPC update

[Laitha]

Oh wow I wonder why SE decided to update the NPC adventuring fellow after doing nothing for so long:

Adjustments and Additions to Fellows (02/26/2008)

Adjustments and additions to fellows have been scheduled for the next version update.

Some of these changes are as follows:

Magic and other abilities you use on party members will now also benefit the fellow you summoned.
Fellows will be able to use a greater variety of equipment.
Fellows will no longer use the following weapon skills: Spinning Attack, Cyclone, Circle Blade, Shockwave, Spinning Scythe, Earth Crusher.

i wonder if they increase the areas you can use your fellow or maybe add a quest or something to be able to use your fellow in goddess or ToAU

I'm hoping for higher lv cap & mabye they fixed it so they can use the lv65 weaponskills that people dont get @lv65 due to the A or A- combat rating i.e. Spinning slash ect... The new armor I wouldnt care about i like how mine looks atm. But anything is an improvement even though its been so long.

[Messershmit]

lego they have always been able to use the lvl 65 WS... fellows have an A+ rating in all weapons no matter what "style" you have them set for, they can use all WS except the quested one

[Contessalynn]

I know I have seen NPCs do Tachi: Kasha before or am I just crazy?

You're crazy...but they could do that weapon skill as well. :lafflaff:

Ooops!

Time to level Feliz (my NPC) from 62 to 65 before the update!

Who knows what exciting (TM) things could now he do? :P

(I know it won't be anything excited but oh well).

What I would like most:

1. Ability to summon NPC to any area (including Aht Urhgan and WoTG... probably BCs as well? Pipe dreams...).

2. Give mage-NPC ability to Raise you! (yeah, right :P)

3. NPC level cap to 75!


What I wouldn't like:

1. New NPC quests that would take forever to complete! Like travel around all Vana'diel as in the previous ones... eeeek.

man i was hoping for something cool like another level cap increase =/

besides the quested/relic ws, fellowships can not use hexastrike, even being well over the skill level.

[Scorpius]

No more shockwave and other AoE?! Hells yea, I can finally switch back to G sword on paku.

[Legado]

I had my npc @65 using GS for the longest time & would never use Spinning slash so I moved to GKT

[Celestraeh]

Yeah, my raka rulz for the GK skillz, but still shy of the 65 mark.
NPC level PT {Please invite me!} @ 63ISH

Yaji and me will level ours very soonish! 3 people are the ideal for those levels, so, let's doo eeet!

I just need to npc it up when I am soloing on BST in The Boyahda Tree.

I do get a big kick out of seeing /bst get eaten alive in the tree by fungars and spiders which was almost as much fun as the pld/bst that zoned every mob in the Toraimarai Canal. Which is stupid because they should just go to the Junger Forest (S) and campaign it up for better exp.
