Quite so.

I took my friend out to Batallia immediately, on my level 34 NIN job, and I was pulling hate after her weak vokes constantly. I wasn't doing anything to try to pull hate (you know, all the ninja stuff).

When I was low on HP, I rested, and she did too, healing herself in the proccess.

We fought some EMs, DCs, and mostly EPs.

She stayed for about half an hour (didn't actually time it, but my wife, in Sauromugue, had hers despawn just about 1 minute before mine, and I think it was about 1 minute before me that she called hers).
She left after saying she was exhausted.


I went back to check on her, and she was still level 30, but had changed from full Scale Mail to a Doublet, Gaiters, and Battle Gloves (and still Scale pants).


I dropped the pearl and got another one, and we went into Rolanberry, and fought mostly EPs, until I decided foolishly to try a tough Ocho.


She ended up dying first, and before I kicked the bucket, I did Mijin Gakure (didn't want to lose any exp ^^).

Went back to find that she's changed back to Scale, except now she appeared to have Chainmail boots on.

Tomorrow I'll go level her using my main, 75 MNK.

Ok, now i'm confused.. current Tokyo time is shown as 9:18pm and it's 8:18am EST right now which gives me the impression 12:00am there would be 11:00am EST.

This is the clock i'm using http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=248

Has anyone figured out yet if it's possible for the npc to delevel. Like going back from 31 to 30 when it dies.

I am just curious if the NPC gets an exp-penalty when it gets killed...

Hiya all.

Today I gave luto a Uchigatana for her to give to my NPC and I went to level her and my DRG 25 now 26.

She was set to healer mode but she did use the Greath Katana, she hit Decent Challenge mobs (to me) for half my damage with polearm sometimes she almost matched my damage.

That is quite impressive since she is in healer mode and cure me with Cure III and verious staus like blid and poison.

She also used weapon skills with nice damage.

So wee see that BPC can use all sorts of weapons and be healer, that is interesting.

Oh just wanted to add that I partied with one other person and she was able to cure both her and my npc.

When I partied by myself, I could not have someone else cure the npc.

She could not however refresh him.

I am definately going to have to con my friends into helping me out get my new NPC later... I wanna have a play around from a lower level and see how it goes.

I have found that the NPC leaves after exactly 15 fights. For 2 days in a row(didn't know about pearl drop trick) I took mine into Xarcacard and killed demons/lost souls on my pld. I keep track and she left both times after exactly 15 kills.

my NPC has been holding up pretty good. she's scared me a few times though. when i first got her se was voking everything as soon as i hit what ever. i had to toss cure 3 like bad meat. now, it wasn't that bad...but, on my bst (Lv. 55) 128mp isn't alot. i had to break out my scythe to out dmg, to take hate.

i then to her out with my 59 rdm to the jungle out post to fight tomberry and cralwers. for anyone thinging about this. don't fight SMN types. thier avatar will element-ga and do massive game to your NPC. i had to manage my HP form hate, HP, from being weak, and MP. sure enough its a tester if anything.

i have notice that my NPS is a bit of a smart-***. when i call here up she say "Try not to slow me down" and the first fight say "Try and keep up". i mean really.... i don't might a smart *** woman, i keeps me sharp and all. but, she's asking for a cure-free fight with stuff like that. i wonder if the the name/race has anything to do why what they do or say.

and, why can't we call then in dugon areas. i was gonna have so much fun in Quicksand with my bst.

i just thought of something, were gonna be kinda screwed when our NPCs level get alot higher, there are no outdoor places for say, lv.55-60 to xp in, mabey in CoP but im not sure how the npc's xp will change in a capped area

Ok, dumb question, but where is the meeting point in ru' lude gardens? getting aggrivated trying to figure it out.

I believe the meeting point is at G-10. As you enter Ru'Lude turn left and head to where everyone else is seeming to loiter. ^^

ok, do you have to have had him out that day for him to be there? cause no luck atm

well, i went over where you guys described and he wasn't there. So i figured that it might not be there if you haven't summoned it yet that day. most likely wrong about that though
