it's better for you to have more than two summons...

at higher levels, your summons would have higher hp... when they die, you need to wait at least 30sec and its hp should be 30% full...

since they already have high hp, it would take much longer to summon them again...
you can summon another one instead... and when the hp of your preferred summon is high enough, you can unsummon the current one and by the time that summoning delay has cooled down, you can have your favorite summon with full hp...

no time wasted...

Training other PT's give you much more versatility.

Ranger Armor - if you just want to scout an area or get to a destination real fast.
Warrior Armor - if you are planning to level up Innana, Hecate, or Isis, this will reduce the amount of damage you get and the pots you consume. Also good if you are PT training.
Shield - same as Warrior armor, only it lets you "block:.

However, NEVER neglect your main PT's; force and defense. It's okay to leave the others alone, just not your main PT's.


Faust/Grazier Skills

HealAnimus - Instantly heals all unsummoned Animi (very nice for Inanna)
AnimaMaxima - Gives summoned Animus a big damage boost - lasts 120 seconds
FastRecall - Removes summon delay, able to summon another Animus after another

Each skill has a 30 second cooldown.

this quite complicated...i recommend you level up ur pt in shiled nd LR somehow CR modifies def and attack... not only in stats.. there are somehow hidden additions like-for-example DEF increase your HP on low level SHIELD modifies these and increases your HP later on in the game...should that help you i don't know cause it works for me.. level 38 characters cannot touch my summoner with atleast a full pt... still without my summon animus out.. i can hamper them with my spells... :-D :-D :-D


for summoning i recommend you take the melee first if you got a full pt... cause you can use this in raid in solus... :evil:

the healer type if you need to catch up with ur pt to save you from your expenses

the caster is lame take an isis instead.. it rocks during chipwars!!!


fill up ur basic skills early on i recommend u take them all... cause it helps in a chain.. if especially when ur going for a full force pt, with no other pt such as LR,CR,DEF & SHIELD...cause u can level all skill pt faster without any worries...

:angel: and further more... my dear in rfo levelng is only a way to get a job and the skills...however pt levelng is the key to enjoying this game!!! :chef: and remember patience is a virtue!!! it will lead you to success!!!ty e-mail me if it works for you..good day!!! :-D :-D :-D

I think the best PT combo for a Cora summoner is melee or close range PT, Force, Shield, and of course defense and summon PT are always there.

the skill names are based on pRFO (Philippine RF Online)

I'd say MELEE because the first BASIC skill is CELERITY which improves the melee attack speed and on the first MASTER skill is ABSORPTION which converts the melee damage into FP. So, I think that would be a great combo for summoners or other magi. Plus wearing melee equips makes you stronger in defense.

hmmm that style is the same with Jovert *former Cora archon*
but this combo is good on early stages *like the early open pRFO, highest lvl char is 35*

Anymore advance info on Summoners and Graziers? I would like to know more abt them before i really go all-out to become Summoners.

Some thoughts to clear:
1. Does summoners need all elements(all the way to final tier). Or should i say are they essential? Aren't the summoned gonna help us clear the mobs we wanted to fight?

2. Do we need to buy all the 4 summons? Or juz train one super high lvl summon and a moderate healer summon is enuff?

3. Do we mages/summoners required to train those in S-List? Regardless close-range or long-range.

4. Can we do this; Wear Full warrior set(so that have high def) and let our summoned partner to help us defeat the mobs?

5. Shld we always maxed our ranged PT for stamina even though we are magic-casters/summoners?

Hope there are ppl who can help clear my thoughts.. Helps will be greatly appreciated.. ^^

Mage and summoner does not need Melee, Range, Shield PT and those skills. Good to have but not necessary. But before Lvl30, they are easy to max (if there is restrict limit). So if you max your main skill before you level, try switch to 1 of those other skill. Shield is more important than Melee then Range.

Summoner still a mage, just not as good as pure mage, so you need all magic as mage still.

Depends your time, not 4 summoner is needed. Healer summon is a must, you will use it very often. The other 2 of standard one is not needed. The special one can be use when you Lvl30 but should not be in game if there are no Black Mech in game (Lvl restriction & game balance)

from wat i know, there's one 2nd tier dark spell buff(or somehow magic boost which amplified magic attacks) which requires 160 stamina to cast. if i never train range, my stamina will be like, 200+? =.= wasting of yellow pots.. =.=

Why do u says shield is important? Does it help increase defence? I thought only def PT is needed... Coz more health = more surviving chances.. Since mages are distance-casters, def is not so impt. Range PT is harder to train than shield at higher lvls.. imagine lvl 3 bow hitting higher mobs dealing tens of dmg only.. =.=" Hp pots gonna burn away all money..

As u mentioned the special summon, which one was it? I mean the placing.. IE, healer is at 3rd place in the U-List..

Btw, any short summary of all the summons? i only know abt the healer.. =.="

I never play Cora, so not sure 2nd tier Dark magic. FP/SP potion are cheap in game, so use it wisely.

Shield... actually all job should level it to certain level. In such RvR game, mage & ranger which has lower defense and lower HP would be enemy 1st hit list, coz easier to kill. That's the time you switch to shield and run for your life. Going in groups would not make different, I normally kill mage 1st, they are good de-buffer also good attacker.

The special summon which gives free when Lvl40 job change, the requirnment to use it is however Lvl30 1st job change only. It has very high attack magic but much much lower defense.

hoyin has a point, it would be wise to train shield PT, but i still think it is a waste of time, even if you can switch to warrior armour and shield, they would have already killed you by then, lol.

as for your questions:

1. Does summoners need all elements(all the way to final tier). Or should i say are they essential? Aren't the summoned gonna help us clear the mobs we wanted to fight?

your magic is essential for your to level up, your summon can die and it has a long delay time before your can respawn it, so you do need to train your magic.


2. Do we need to buy all the 4 summons? Or juz train one super high lvl summon and a moderate healer summon is enuff?

that is entirely up to you. tailor which summon you choose to get to how you level. (though i strongly recommend the healer summon and the fourth summon, most useful)

3. Do we mages/summoners required to train those in S-List? Regardless close-range or long-range.

well they aren't really useful for mages, but maybe the rangers ones might help..

4. Can we do this; Wear Full warrior set(so that have high def) and let our summoned partner to help us defeat the mobs?

yes. in RF you use almost anything as long as you have the PT for it, IF you choose to level warrior PT then you can use high level warrior armour and have your summon fight along side you, but the monster might just go for the summon, and .. seriously, they die really fast.

5. Shld we always maxed our ranged PT for stamina even though we are magic-casters/summoners?

well, if you go pure mage, you can level up your ranged PT because after job change there is a skill that uses 120 SP to increase magic power, however, its not as if having a greater amount of sp is going to help you regain it any faster, so i say don't waste your time.
