ideas about ppmFollow

ok mnk main, i figure any job that uses h2h as a main weapo is fun so im betting Puppetmaster will get all the ws's maybe an A- - B rating?

stats:

not sure, im betting AGI or DEX based though
like if the PPM/PUP/w/e the hell you wanna call it was using those lil wodden control thing-a-ma-bobbers

puppets:
in ammo slow most likely
Tank Style: heavier set, less attack, higher def/HP
Melee Style: prolly the one in the pic, higher atk HP, lower def
support style: might heal, might buff, might debuff not sure

from what i've read about the demo, the puppet was copying Mr. Taru's moves, so i think that maybe the puppet is like a blu? tank coppies self/pary buffs, melee coppies attacks, support coppies healing/enfeeb/buffs

ja's: more like pet style moves, maybe spells

this is just random thoughts, lemme knwo what you think XD

none of this is by anymeans proven facts (be funny if im right though =P) and was written @ 4:00 AM in the morning

How about if the PC had to set JA/Magix from their subjob?
Eg:

PPM/BLM
Puppet Abilities:
Fire
Water ect...
I'd say the Puppet would have around 5 slots to equip subjob abilities and can be used once every ten minutes or so..what with what the puppet usually does.
again...
Example:
PPM/SAM
Third Eye
Tachi: Enpi
ect...
no TP store so it would gather TP like a regular job.

PPM/WAR
Provoke
Berserk
ect..

I quite like the idea of it like that.

I think the subjob idea makes alot of sense.

Maybe the puppets will be like a puppet for each job. Not neccesarily ammo slot, but like a JA on timer(like a job ability summon).

It would be interesting as a tank but if the puppet itself doesnt provoke... But then again if the puppept had the abilities of a subjob or was like Warrior puppet. that would be cool. The idea of a mimic could be interesting, fighting crabs and using defense boost would be nifty.

I guess no matter how you guess, PM is going to be rather adaptable- hopefully anyway
