[quote][i]Quote from: Penweaver[/i] LOL - I completely and utterly love Pup. Unfortunately, I only have it to level 13 at the moment as I am focusing on getting my MNK capped, but let me share my experience if you will. First, my room mate and I duoed everything so far. She brought her Pup out to, and we both subbed Whm. We use Rolanberry pie as that extra 50 mp makes a HUGE deifference at low levels. As for the Pup, You get an ability called "Deploy" which tells the automaton to attack. Their AI is pretty smart. If they have TP and you Weapon skill, they will try to close a skill chain. With my room mate and I, we have discovered that not only will the skill chain off of up, but the two automatons will skill chain off of each other. From 1 - 13 we have been able to regularly rip through toughs like there was no tomorrow. In addition, there are moves that you can do that give them regen and/or refresh. In the begining, the Pup doesnt do much more than attack the mob and occassionaly use an ability. At lvl 10, 20, and 30, you can choose to buy additional frames. At level 10, we went with the melee frame. At this point, the do really kick ass damage, and with the right attachments, they will provoke regularly. There is also a Ranger type of frame and a Mage type of frame. I havent played with either, so I dont know how well they do. For the automatons, you get both attachments and frames. The attachments all help the automaton do certain things. In addition, it allows you a lot of customization. You can have one of each type of attachment hooked up to your automaton, and you can equip those attachments to your pup when you need to. There are a lot of prep work that goes into this, and for the sake of trying to keep this from being 10 pages long, I will forgo describing it all. Just bare in mind there are 3 levels of attachments for each type of element (like fire). Lvl 1 attachments are NPC purchaseble for about 5k each, lvl 2, about 10k, and lvl 3 you get from the AH. Frames, at least on my server, are expensive as hell. You have to gather a bunch of things together, all told at lvl 10 I dropped just shy of a 500,000 gil on it (half the cost was for Silver Imperial Pieces, which I got by turning in IS Points, so I didnt actually have to pay that). The mage was about another mil, and the ranger was about 800,000. I hope this helped. For more info, check out: http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/index.php/Puppetmaster Pen[/quote]
