Embolden Pets Context 1 (Source)
Does anyone know exactly what /emboldenpets skill does and what the best way to use it?
When i use it with my group of two Cu Pa's their HAM stats drop about 25% instantly or there capacity increases that percent and health stays the same, but i not sure how to tell.
About 45 seconds later there stats regen back at an excelerated rate that seems to get faster as it gets closer to 100%, cant tell if this is the effect coming off or not. I do not see any difference in killing abilities or increase on damage.
Would an icon next to the pet be to much to ask for if this is a buff?
To use this buff effectively, right before a good fight I will use emboldenpet, then heal the pet, then go fighting. Embolden increases their HAM cap, but for it to be useful you need to then heal the pet to that new max cap. The best thing about this skill is, once it wears off their HAM will return to normal, and most of the time there will be no healing needed after a fight, unless the pet took more damage then the buff created (does that make any sense?).
Embolden wears off pretty quickly, I forget what the timer is, but it is pretty small (like 1 minute or so). And yes, when it starts dropping you can see that the Max HAM will start shrinking back down to its normal amount.
Enrage causes the pets to go beserk, meaning they will dish out more damage, but will also be more susceptible to damage.
embolden uses health action and mind
I try enrage from time to time, but I don't notice much of a difference, although an enraged AT-ST is novel. Embolden is a complete waste of action and mind, though.
What does Embolden do? I've asked alot of CH's even Master ones and they either don't use it, or don't know what it does. All i know is that you lose Health and Mind, and your pets lose Health , Action, and Mind when ever you use Embolden, but that's all i know. Anyone?
Number of pets out affect total ham costs???
The only stat that has any bearing on handlers is mind for the Empathy line. I would recommend you build your stats for your other professions then adjust them if you find you need trick, embolden or enrage more often than your current set-up allows.
Also keep in mind that each active pet requires the expenditure. If your mind is too low, only one (or two) will benefit from these abilities at a time.
