Level | Name | Recast | Duration | Effect |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Spirit Surge | 02:00:00 | N/A | Adds your wyvern's strength to your own, wyvern must be present before use. When activated the Dragoon's maximum hp increases and the Wyvern's current hp and tp is transferred to the Dragoon. Jump, High Jump, and Super Jump recast timers are reset to zero, and Jump and High Jump's accuracy is increased to near 100%. During the effect, Jump will induce a moderate Defense down effect on the mob, High Jump reduces the mob's tp by an amount proportional to the damage inflicted, and Super Jump reduces the enmity of the party or alliance member behind the Dragoon. An effect of 25% Haste is given to the Dragoon, and the Dragoon receives a STR boost based on its level. |
Some jobs go into battle with a faithful pet at their side, pet abilities allow these jobs to issue commands to their pet in order to have them attack, follow, stay and even cast beneficial or damage spells.
Dragoon is a unique pet class when compared to jobs like Beastmaster and Puppetmaster in that instead of having player-activated pet abilities, A wyvern's breath abilities are triggered by the Dragoon preforming a weaponskill. In addition, which breath a wyvern uses is determined by the subjob of the Dragoon.
Non-Magic using subjobs like (but not limited to) Warrior, Thief, Samurai, and Monk will cause the wyvern to use a random elemental breath attack that causes damage to the mob. While jobs like White Mage, Black Mage, Red Mage and Summoner will trigger healing breath abilities that will only activate if the Dragoon or a party member is 1/3 or below their total health. Other jobs like Paladin, Dark Knight, Ninja and Bard will allow your wyvern to use both damage and healing breath abilities, however, the healing breath trigger is lowered to 1/4 HP and will only work on the Dragoon themselves.
Weapon skills are abilities that become available when a player has gained 100+ TP while damaging a mob with their weapon. All weapons, with the exception of Thrown and Instruments have their own set of weaponskills. Weaponskill availability is dependent on a player's skill level with the weapon as well as the weapon itself.
