Post subject:  Sometimes upon activating my automaton, it is invisible.

I can still order it around, but checking the equipment tab, it has 0/0 skill (even if it actually has 200 skill), and seemingly misses as much as if it actually had 0 skill in melee.

is there a way to activate it in such a way that this does not occur? or is it random? subbing PUP is super strong even at lvl 1 and i'd like to use more of it.

thankyou.

I should add, i've only seemingly seen it when it is used as a sub job (it's actually pretty damn strong as a sub, you can have 1PUP with max melee skill (240?), but when it is invisible, it seems to only have 0 skill)

Have you tried zoning?


my experience has been: zoning with puppet out unsummons puppet.

cooldown remains. basically this kills the puppet.

So, Sometimes the 'Maton spawns underneath ground level. Other times, it spawns totally invisible. When it's invis it only hits for about 10% of what it normally hits for. . . Heal ur puppet to full, unsummon it, relog, resummon it. If that doesn't work, change jobs back and forth.

This happens regardless of if the pup is main or sub

I found when the puppet is invisible, it is because it was summoned without the body and or head being set. Whatever is causing the 'random' unequip of head/body I've yet to figure out.

So, if for whatever reason it is invisible, I deactivate it, go to menu > equip > automation, then verify the head and body and set.

Hope this helps.
