Now with changes, anyone test homunculus? I know AI still the same but homun got SPR/Weapon buff like socer/necro?
homunculus maybe get the bonus ā¦ but since he never autoattack , we cannot know.
still cast skill pretty much at random so is not so much like u needed it for be competentā¦ is just a little gimmick.
iām gonna make a new alchemical stone for some special occasion, to brag about it with my guild and something, but not feeling like i needed it all time
it seems Homunculus does benefit from SPR, atleast healthwise. My homunculus window shows that it has 11592 HP but when dueled, the other party will see that it actually has ~23k HP. It seems to match the .66% SPR bonus as I has 296 at that time.
Also found out that they cast one of their spells once every 20 seconds. It also suffers from the same bad AI as sorc summon that it doesnt cast while you are moving around.
My question is, does the summon actually die? Because from one of my duels to test homun death, my enemy was only able to bring itās hp to 1 and never dies. This might be because it was a duel therefore Im curious on what would happen if a homunculus actually dies from monster attacks. Is it gone forever and I have to craft a new one? Or do I only need to relog my character to respawn it?
From what I remember, it doesnāt. There was a glitch where it despawns when you die though. Iām not sure if that was fixed. You can load into a new map to get it back, but you canāt really do that in dungeons.
homun benefits from SPR, but itās base damage is too low for that to really do anything. A trans weapon will give a huge bonus to itās damage. canāt really recommend it tho. the only damage spell worth considering here is pyro3 firepillar10 (20 hits), and if you go this path should be the only thing you put on your homun.
My only real problem here was its survivability as i thought it would die and i would have to spend more talts to make another one. Damage wise it would suck, but i am thinking of making my alche3, linker 3 wiz3. Joint penalty every 20 sec + your own link seems op enough for me. I could also add sleep but ai only casts around itself instead of around an enemy. My highest damage would come from sleep(w/ dreameater attr which works with psychic and NULL)alche missile+link or combustion link with magic missile link as filler. Every time homun casts link, i can just throw in magic missiles. Alternative would be wiz2pyro but losing quickcast might be annoying
Homun does NOT get your attributes on itās spells. or agny. or +lightning/etc on JP. or any damage attribute.
the question with dream eater becomes if the attribute applies when you cast sleep, or when you use other skills on a sleeping target.
stone curse spam is more interesting now, but probably still a bad idea. less damage taken from anything BUT fire?
icewall will basically troll yourself all day since it casts whatever direction the homun was facing at the moment.
raise will still be somewhat op.
I suspect mag force will be king.
