Empathy

From FFXI Wiki
Job Trait Information
Description Copies beneficial status effects to wyvern when using Spirit Link.
Type Merit
Job Dragoon
Merit Points
Group 2 Ranks Available 5
Effect of each Rank Copies one buff to the pet wyvern per merit level and gives 200 xp per merit level past the first.

Notes

  • Up to 5 buffs are copied from the top of your screen.
    • The priority of buffs copying is yet to be established.
  • If a buff has already been copied and is still in effect it will be skipped over the next time Spirit Link is used.
  • Duration of copied buffs are the same as time remaining for the user.
    • When a buff wears off it will appear in the chat log of whoever gave the user that buff, not necessarily in the user's chat log.
  • Empathy lets you use Spirit Link even if your wyvern has 100% HP.
    • If your wyvern has 100% HP upon using Spirit Link, none of your own HP is lost.
    • Unlike when Cure is cast on a sleeping player with 100% HP, a sleeping wyvern will not wake up when Spirit Link is used at 100% HP.
