With recent changes to Beastmaster I believe it might be time to created a guide for HorizonXI's era. Please note there are likely to be major changes in the future as stated in the Mog House held by the developers for 1.1 seemed to indicate this. Beastmaster on HorizonXI plays much different from the original game. With the addition of out of era Jug Pets BST's are far more useful for just about everything.Charm has been patched making it work as it should. There is No Experience Points penalty for using Charmed* or Jug Pets in a party. *If you charm anything above Even Match this might not be true if the monsters level is above the highest level in your party. With that said lets start.

Basics

• Charm is what most people think of for Beastmaster; It tames a monster to fight by your side. Charm is based off two main factors or three when played as a Support Job ; Your Beastmaster's level and then a Charisma check. This is expanded to include your main job level if you are Subbing Bst. So when using BST as a Support Job it would be a check on your current job level and Beastmaster Max Level. Yes this would mean if you want to use Beastmaster as a Support Job at level 75 you would need to also have Beastmaster at level 75. After that it is a basic Charisma check like BST main.
  • Some monsters have higher resist rates to Charm such as Slimes.
  • Light Staff and Appolo's Staff work on charm they appear to be a flat 10% increase to your success rate. for the most part this is the best item for charm, there are some instances where the Monster Signa might be better post level 51, but this is incredibly rare.
  • Charm + Gear such as Beast Gloves are a flat 5% time increase per charm.
    • Beast Gloves have +3 to Charm this would be 15% more time to charm. The full Beast Armor Set gives +20 thus doubling charms duration if equipped.
  • timers of charm vary by how the monster checks to you I will update this section as we learn the times on this server. 30 Min can be achieved for monsters that check to week.

• Jug Pets
