A Guide to Setting Up Friend Partners (mostly updated for Ep3)

megiverse > resta , and /hu makes FP 100% unkillable. with 100% megiverse uptime it means unkillable you
/fo viable if you making offensive FP , and in this case FO should be main, not sub

What am I doing wrong?
Subpallete I have Sol/Star/Moon Resta Anti Shifta Deband Zanverse and Megiverse.
On weapon it only has Namegid and Ilfoie.
Tried her out on my alts and she would never buff or anything and sometimes never does anything except maybe a few Ilfoies.
I've seen other friend machines that would buff like once every 10 seconds and sometimes resta almost instantly.
She's a Leadership/Tsundere/Savior

You're using the first subpalette in book 1, right?
Friend Partners with Zanverse or Megiverse tend to spam those a lot instead of anything else.
Try removing those and see how it goes.
You can also try filling weapon palettes with Deband and Shifta.

FPs have an 8-10 second timer (I forget how long) between each cast.
They will also only use Resta when you've taken significant damage, and only sometimes.
Tsundere is supposed to use Resta more often when you're low on health, but I don't know if that affects the rate if you're not low.
It seems they have a much higher rate of throwing a Star Atomizer if you've taken any damage at all.

Summoner Friend Partner's Pet
o = works on Friend Partner
x = no effect on Friend Partner
? = unknown

Pet HP:
Based on Summoner Level (if Summoner is level 1, HP is the same regardless of subclass).
x Pet Level
x Stamina Gumi
x Stamina Cookie

Pet element:
Affected by element, up to 60 element.
o Soda (eg. if Fire, and you use an Ice Soda, it will become Ice element)

Pet damage, etc:
o Summoner level
? Subclass level (No difference observed between Su10/Sub1 and Su10/Sub75, but probably due to Summoner Level being too low)
x Pet level
x Pet personality and personality level
x Technic cookie
x Egg revision price (?)
x Gamushara Parfait
x Pittari Parfait
x Shikkari Roll
x All Attack Bonus
? Stat Switch & Pet Sympathy & Point Assist & Alter Ego (doesn't seem to use any of them)
o TATK Up 1, 2
o TATK High Up
o Photon Flare
o Photon Flare Advance
o Photon Flare Afterburst
o Element Weak Hit
o Attack Advance
o Average Stance
o Pet Photon Barrier

Brave, Wise, Weak, ELemental, Break Stances and Shifta Air Attack, All Attack Up, All Attack High Up unconfirmed.
But should work.

In other words?
Summoner level 75 with a 13 star pet (any level) and 60 element is the best.
Aside from Soda and Pancake, other candies don't seem to have any effect.
Pet strength depends on Summoner level and Class Skills.

Summerer FP are good at swiping low level mobs, but they tend to spam normal attack 90% of the time, which is of course not benefited from normal attack bonus.

Te is still my first FP choice.

[TaigaUC]

Wanda Shock and Wanda regular attack seems good at "stunning" regular mobs.

Is there any way to prevent my FP from casting certain techs?
I've filled every slot of book 1, slot 1 with megiverse, but she still likes to spend a million years casting namegid or occasionally sazan, even though they aren't on her weapon or sub...

They aren't on any of her weapons? FPs use techs from every weapon ever since they were changed to use all the weapon palettes.

All she has is one casting weapon on the first slot, and a rifle for WB on the second

EDIT: Is it possible that it's storing saved data from previous weapon palettes, even though she has nothing equipped in those slots?

check book02, since ep3 FP can switch books
