Dragoon

Starter Quest

The Holy Crest

Quest works as per retail. As this uses the same battlefield as the daily BCNMs, be sure that no one is actively doing one of the dailies before starting the event in Gheshba Outpost.

Abilities

Wyverns

  • Wyverns have overall stats, including attack, magic attack bonus, and accuracy, scaled by level.
  • Defensive wyverns use Healing Breath on weaponskill if no one in the party is suffering from a status effect they can remove. This replaces the current retail functionality of the wyvern simply doing nothing. The threshold for this is 80%.
  • Defensive wyverns, when the subjob is NOT a summoner, have a higher threshhold on using Healing Breath when the dragoon uses magic (50%, 60% if Wyvern Effective Breath gear mod is active).
  • Multipurpose wyverns have a higher threshhold on using Healing Breath when the dragoon casts magic (35%, 45% if Wyvern Effective Breath gear mod is active).
  • Wyverns gain a scaling “Wyvern Breath+” from levels 1 to 99.
  • Wyverns properly “level up” as they do in retail (see wiki at https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Wyvern_(Dragoon_Pet)#Parameter_Increase). These bonuses apply to both the wyvern and the master and are quite significant–increasing attack and defense upwards of +20% (percent gains, not flat gains).
    • These bonuses are gained at higher experience point levels than retail due to the higher experience point rates on the server.
    • Wyverns can level up 5 times. At levels <=75, the wyvern levels up every 5500 experience points gained. At levels >=76, the wyvern levels up every 7500 experience points.
    • Wyverns can level up when the player gains either experience points or limit points.
    • A wyvern can only level up once per kill, no matter how much experience is gained.
    • These bonuses are reset every time the player zones or the wyvern dies or is dismissed.

Jumps

All jumps have been updated to use the same damage base formula of 1 + (VIT / 256).

Angon

  • Angon’s defense down effect has been increased from -20% to -30%.

Spirit Bond

  • This ability is custom to provide dragoons a better way to manage the survivability of their wyverns without taking unmitigated damage.
  • Adds the player’s defense and magic defense to the wyvern, and adds a slight attack and magic attack bonus to the wyvern.
  • Enables Healing Breath variants to full heal the wyvern.

Ancient Circle

  • CUSTOM Provides the group +50 evasion, +10 “Conserve TP”, and +10 to gravity, blind, and bind resistance.
