1 Spirit Surge
* Adds your wyvern's strength to your own.
* Obtained: Dragoon Level 1
* Recast Time: 2:00:00
* Duration: 1:00
[edit] Notes/Description
* Spirit Surge is a Dragoon's 2 hour special ability.
* A Dragoon must have a Wyvern out in order to use Spirit Surge.
* The Dragoon's Wyvern is absorbed upon use of Spirit Surge.
* While this ability is in effect, Jump, High Jump, and Super Jump gain additional effects:
o Jump temporarily weakens an enemy’s defense.
o High Jump causes an enemy’s TP to be reduced by a percentage proportionate to the amount of damage inflicted.
o Super Jump causes the closest party member behind the dragoon (from the point of view of the monster) to have his or her enmity reduced by half.
* The Dragoon's maximum HP is increased by roughly 15% and is healed by the Wyvern's current HP.
* The Dragoon gains a large STR boost. (= 1 + level / 5)
* The Wyvern's attack speed is deducted from the Dragoon's granting him increased attack speed.
* The Wyvern's per-hit damage is added onto the Dragoon's individual attacks.
* The Wyvern's current TP is added to the Dragoon's and with proper timing a self-skillchain may be performed.
* The recast time for the Jump, High Jump, and Super Jump job abilities will be reset when using Spirit Surge.

Working with an Automon
Now, we all know a Drg was meant to be with our wyverns, but what if we can get more from another partner? For this guide i am considering only the Sharpshot frame automon because at my level in-game most pt's are fighting piercing weak mobs. So with that said, lets take some looks at the Sharpshot.
Sharpshot
Elemental Slots
Fire 6
Ice 2
Wind 7
Earth 3
Lightning 6
Water 5
Light 5
Dark 2
Attatchments
Note: These are for my testing and not the only combonation possible
Ability Attatchments
Shock Absorber-- Stoneskin
Volt Gun-- Enthunder
Flashbulb-- Flash
Reactive Shiled-- Blaze Spikes
Strobe-- Provoke(only in worst case scenario)
Auto Repair Kit 2-- Regen (2 hp per tick w/1 light maneuver up)
Turbo Charger-- Haste
Skill Up Attatchments
Attuner-- Increases attack against powerful enemies (possibly a must have as the automon will only be at lv 37 since it will be subbed)
Tension Spring 2-- Increases Attack
Stabilizer 2-- Increases Accuracy
Heat Seeker-- Analyzes enemy evasion patterns and gradually enhances accuracy.
Accelerator 2-- Enhances Automaton Evasion
Battle Tactics
this is where i am still at a loss as i cant test any of it; ;
So at higher lvs most pt's seem to be fighting piercing weak mobs. Being a drg with a polearm we'll get this piercing bonus naturally but our wyverns won't because they are considered blunt. Now if we were to have the Sharpshot puppet out this means that it will also naturally recieve this bonus adding to its damage total. Also if we set the automon up to attack from next to the mobs it will not only get the ranged attacks but also normal melee. Adding to that it will also have en-thunder to pick up its DOT a little more. So this may bve a short example of how a fight may go(only from the drg's perspective , not added with the rest of pt)
Mob is pulled to camp
Drg uses Wind Maneuver-- Auto's R.Acc goes up along with recieving Haste
Pt begins attacks/nukes/debuffs
Drg engages themself and deploys puppet on mob
Drg uses Light Maneuver-- Auto uses Flash on mob and recieves Regen
Drg continues with normal jumps and DD
Drg uses Thunder Maneuver-- Enthunder is enhanced along with Accuracy(also if close to 100%tp, Forcing auto to use Daze ws when 100% is reached)
Drg continues as normal with drg subbing in an Earth Maneuver(Stoneskin) every 3mins. or so while trying to keep Wind(for R.acc) light(for Flash every 30sec.) and thunder(for Daze)
Fights end as normal.
Also in a "Worst Case Scenario"
fight is going horribly out of control
Drg /ja "Deactivate"
Drg /ja "Call Wyvern"
Drg /wait 2
Drg /ja "Spirit Surge"
Drg /ja "Activate"
Drg /ja "Deploy"
Drg /ja "Jump" -- Mob def down
Drg /ja "High Jump" -- causes an enemy’s TP to be reduced by a percentage proportionate to the amount of damage inflicted.
Drg /ja "Super Jump" (if needed)
Hopefully the fight has ended before all that happens, but you get the idea i hope.
Well, thats as far as ive gotten so far and any help info would be nice.
I am also well aware that with a post like this i can(and probably will) be rated down in forums, but just remember its just an idea of a possibility.

That's besides the point though. Yes, Charm works based on your BST's actual level, not just what it is when subbed. This is why a 75 job who also has BST at 75 can charm things fairly easily with some CHR gear. I remember seeing a 75 PLD/BST wearing full Koenig (which gives huge CHR bonuses) charming Steelshells and Korrigans and sending them at Elder Goobbues in The Boyahda Tree once. Obviously his BST was also leveled, or he'd have not been able to do that.
