Chivalry on Cu Sidhe is bad idea

[R Traveler]

Once you put chivalry on pet it start to cure poison using chivalry spell. So pet can't raise healing above 80 anymore.
In case you think to train healing before putting chivalry - keep in mind you lose 0.1 healing on every pet res and can't train it back.
In case you think to use discorded pet training to train healing - only this skill does not affected by disco.

Think few more times before you put any magical ability wit poison curing on your cu sidhe.

I added it to mine and it is at 93 healing up from 90 since I added chivalry to it.
I am training it against diseased blood elementals, eternal gazers and unbound EVs. I also increased his healing cap to 120, so his gain margin might be wider now.

discordance does work on Cu's, you just cant see it on the healing.
this was addressed years ago by the Dev's back when they use to actually answer questions.

My cu is up at about 96 raised from 90 since putting chiv on. Fighting navrey works. Sure it does cure sometimes with chiv but it still gains ok

 

[R Traveler]

Someone need to confirm gains up to 120.

 

[BeaIank]

I am working on it.
Mine has 98 now. Unbound EVs and Diseased Blood Elementals (he rips through those like they were made of paper) work pretty good for that.
I bet Navrey and Dreadhorn will also give great gains.

I wonder if EoO, which is a spell where you need judgement, is really effective for AI. If the pet toggles it on/off all the time, all it does is wasting mana. If it turns it on when a variety of different mobs beat on it, it's suicide.

Wondered that myself... if you can't control when he's casting it or anything it ought to not cast it if it's active.

Anyone with experience with Chiv on a pet? How do they handle it?

 

[R Traveler]

Well, 5 days of healing training without chiv - disco does help in getting gains, so only display not affected.
112.7 healing.

My Rune beetle with 30 MR (49 with peace songs), 500 int and 1300 mana just love Chiv.
She can fight for over an hour before her mana drops below 900. I should have given her more HP instead.
And chiv adds a lot of DPS for your pet.

Didn't Chiv remove Magery? If so, I guess it was a good tradeoff?
I now added Chiv and a 120er scroll to my other Cu, but need to get her skill up to check if it works properly for me. In a scenario with one enemy or only one species, EoO shouldn't be a problem either, but what about dungeons where you encounter all sorts of foes?

I've never even seen my Cu casting EoO.

It replaced his magery and removed her poisoning.
But it was well worth it for what I had in mind. With her siding my macer at Dreadhorn, the stupid Swiftwind wannabe who deserves all the death, the fight was ridiculous fast.
The stupid unicorn dropped in less than 3 minutes.
EoO is not a problem when you are fighting only big, nasty stuff.
