To earn a Treasure Hunter +1 Prestige bonus as Thief main job, you must:

• Have THF prestige at level 4 or higher
• Trade either a Rogue's Armlets+1 that has been augmented with Treasure Hunter, or a Dragon Cap +1 that has been augmented with Treasure Hunter, to Prestix in Upper Jeuno. You still keep the item and the augments. Prestix will not take it from your inventory.

To earn a Treasure Hunter +2 prestige bonus as THF main job, you must:

• Have THF prestige at level 5
• Trade both of the above augmented items to Prestix. Again, he will return the items after he inspects them.

Proc System

As of January 2025, the Treasure Hunter "proc" system has been implemented on CatsEyeXI. The following table shows the chance to proc the next tier of TH on a mob.

• This table assumes your character's treasure hunter is 5, and you are attacking the mob with that TH gear equipped. If your TH level is lower or higher, adjust the number in the first column accordingly.
• "Feint" in this table indicates that you are either attacking the mob with max-merited Feint on the attack, or that the mob already has the evasion-down effect of a max-merited Feint applied from a previous attack.
• "SA" and "TA" refers to Sneak Attack and Trick Attack.
• The maximum TH tier you can proc to on CEXI is 12.

Treasure Hunter Proc Rates at TH5
Mob's TH Tier	Base Proc Chance	With Feint	SA or TA	SA and TA	Feint + (SA or TA)	Feint + SA + TA
5 → 6	4%	8%	40%	80%	80%	100%
6 → 7	2%	4%	20%	40%	40%	80%
7 → 8	1%	2%	10%	20%	20%	40%
8 → 9	0.5%	1%	5%	10%	10%	20%
9 → 10	0.25%	0.5%	2.5%	5%	5%	10%
10 → 11	0.125%	0.25%	1.25%	2.5%	2.5%	5%

• Gains access to Absorb-Attri at level 75.

Beastmaster

Abilities and Traits

• Call Beast acquired at level 10
  • See all Custom Jugs
• Fencer I acquired at level 60, and II acquired at level 75.
• Stout Servant acquired at level 75.

Adjustments

Beastmaster Jug Pets were adjusted in order to address the seriously lacking attributes.

• The adjustments were made in two parts: Ready Strength and Stats.

Ready Strength:
All jug pets have had their damage dealing Ready abilities increased based on the following factors:

• Job level (x / 75 if main job, x / 37 if sub job)
• CHR stat (x / 43, this does NOT include base CHR, only the +CHR)

What this means:
The formula for the increase is: (% of max player level) + (% of CHR stat)

Examples:
If player is BST75 main job and has CHR +80 (again, NOT including base stats), then:

Player Level: 75 / 75. CHR: 80 / 43

• Total Ready damage increase: (75 / 75) + (100 / 43) = 1 + 1.86 = 2.86x damage increase

If player is BST60 main job and has CHR +20 (again, NOT including base stats), then:

Player Level: 60 / 75. CHR: 20 / 43

• Total Ready damage increase: (60 / 75) + (20 / 43) = 0.8 + 0.47 = 1.27x damage increase

If player is BST30 sub job and has CHR +8 (again, NOT including base stats), then:

Player Level: 30 / 37. CHR: 8 / 43

• Total Ready damage increase: (30 / 37) + (12 / 43) = 0.81 + 0.28 = 1.09x damage increase

Disclaimers:
You will never suffer a damage loss, it will only be subject to an increase in damage. Additionally, any buffs received from gear will still be accounted for, this is just a bonus on top.

• We recommend you have a <wait 2> after the Ready ability in order for it to accurately.
  • Check your CHR stat in case of latency issues.

Stats:
ALL jug pets have had their DEF increased by a flat 10%

The following jug pets have been granted additional enmity for tanking purposes:

Jug Pet	Enmity+
Crab Familiar	10
Courier Carrie	15
Beetle Familiar	10
Panzer Galahad	15

Beast Raising

Beastmaster has access to a new Beast Raising System that is exclusive to CatsEyeXI using the Bestiary Book (G-12) inside the Lower Jeuno Chocobo Stables.

3. After the kill, you have a random chance to obtain it as a pet. If you do not see a message, you need to keep trying.
4. Killing NMs yield a higher chance of success, but can be tedious.

Activities and Feeding

Most Attachments work.

Automatons may be equipped with attachments which boost and augment their capabilities. Initially received as items, they must be traded to equip in the automaton equipment menu. Once traded they can not be turned back into items.
While your main job is Puppetmaster speak with Tateeya in the Automaton Workshop at (I-7) in Aht Urhgan Whitegate then trade her the attachments. She won't take an attachment that you have already traded before.

• After the initial dialogue you may trade attachments on any job.

Adjustments

♦ Cardinal Chant was altered to provide an affinity boost to magic, determined by where the target is located relative to the caster when the elemental magic spell actually lands on the target, instead of the retail bonuses.

Affinity is a separate Magic Damage multiplier for a particular element. It sits at a 1.0 in the equation, and increases when affinity is added.

• For refence below, an NQ elemental staff adds 0.05 to the multiplier. An HQ adds 0.1.
  • Those staves also add magical accuracy based on this of +10 and +20.

Collimated Fervor enhances the bonuses of Cardinal Chant by 50%.
