Notes

• Effect is granted to any party member within 10' of the Avatar.
• Potency of favor builds over time and is reset any time the avatar is defeated or dismissed.
  • Increases one tier every tock until the potency is capped, only the capped potency per skill tier is displayed below.
    • Cap is determined by Summoning Magic Skill and currently equipped "Avatar's Favor"+ from gear and Job Point Gifts.
      • Each "Avatar's Favor +1" increases maximum potency by 1 tier, regardless of your current summoning skill tier.
        • Current maximum obtainable potency is at 670 skill +4 tiers.
  • Using a Blood Pact will "charge" the current potency of Favor.
    • The more MP that is consumed by the Blood Pact, the greater the increase, with Blood Pact: Rages increasing the potency more than Blood Pact: Wards.
  • Maximum Favor potency depends on the skill cap tier of the avatar. Max value charge times are displayed below without using any blood pacts.
    • Maximizing the Job Point category for Avatar's Favor will reduce this by 1 minute.
• The Avatar does not receive the effects of Favor.

Effect on the Summoner

• Avatar Perpetuation Cost is increased by 20%, floored, for Avatars while this ability is active.
  • Spirits are unaffected.
  • Carbuncle, Cait Sith, and Fenrir costs 2 MP/tick more.
    • e.g. FLOOR(11 × 1.2) = 13 and FLOOR(13 × 1.2) = 15
  • All other Avatars cost 3 MP/tick more.
    • e.g. FLOOR(15 × 1.2) = 18
  • If perpetuation cost is floored (e.g. -1 MP/tic) when activating Avatar's Favor, the cost is not increased.
    • This is because 1 × 1.2 = 1.2, which then FLOOR(1.2) = 1.
• Avatar's Favor decreases Blood Pact Ability Delay up to 10 seconds, scaling with the current potency.
  • Currently, the maximum reduction is 9 seconds, requiring 670+ skill and +4 tiers.
  • Without using Blood Pacts to speed up charging, -1 Blood Pact Delay is granted after each 18 seconds until reaching a summoning skill cap tier.
