giresta, the 5th buff?

[Inazuma]

i dunno exactly when it happened, but rite now on psu pc/ps2 jp ver, giresta totally rocks. the HP regen lasts just as long as buffs do. (lv 21 giresta = 4 mins)

but not only does the hp regen last for a full 4 mins, it also seems to "save up" if not being used. so if you are at full HP for a while and never get to use the HP regen, when you do finally get hit, all the previous unused regens will take effect at once.

giresta is really awesome now, im loving it (^_^)

i was wondering if this change has already occurred on the eng ver.

sound like they made giresta awesome now

Its been like that since release. Way to pay attention.

Not by my account. The auto-recovery effect fades after no more than a few ticks.

Four minutes plus "storing it up until you need it" sounds incredible, but I'm rather surprised it hasn't actually mentioned in any updates, though.

I find that Giresta is better for reviving team-mates (but only if you have no Moon X's left, they are much faster), rather than using it for the regen. In my experience the HP regeneration usually wears off before anyone has even been hit. And yes, that's at 21+.

[RegulusHikari]

How big is Giresta's tick? Is it 1% like Me / HP Restore or is it higher? I assume it's 1, 2, and 3% at each interval.

i always spam giresta, and i have not noticed the op statements of lasting as long as the buffs...

cool beanz

yea i knew it was that good also i cant believe no one even gave it a chance http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

The HP regen definitely never saves up for me, as I'm almost always healed all the way by it.

It could be released in a future update I suppose.

Oh, that sounds nice, but I doubt people will start to use Giresta. Most people can't stand the casting time and even if some FO have they don't even use to it to revive people.

Giresta's HP regen will do a certain amount of ticks every so often. If its not needed at the time of the tick, it'll get stored up. Then when you finally do get hit, all of the stored up ones will go off and it'll start to store them up again if there's any left and if you're at full HP.

No idea how long the effect will continue on for, but the tech info does say it uses a status, which are essentially what any buff or debuff are, even if they don't have an icon.

[Aries2384]

I think it'd be nice if we got some kind of Status effect symbol, like our buff symbols by our names. You know? So we knew when it would wear off. Instead of the guess work. Guess thats too much to ask.

people with har / quicks should use them. Me with out a quick unit with resta, and my friend with a har quick and GIRESTA, casted the spells at the same time XD

I dont see what the big deal is about giresta's casting time. As long as you hear the chime, the technique will go through weather you are holding your rod in the air or not. lol its actually better to get hit while you are casting xD
