Talk:Garuda

From FFXIclopedia, the free Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia

When camping, I saw a Summoner use Garuda to Aero IV a puk. In theory, the puk should be healed (since they absorb wind), however, the text displayed was, "Garuda uses Aero IV. Garuda recovers X amount of health." He did this three times and it happened every time. Is this a game glitch? Or is it a game, 'let me help you' thing? You see the effect on the puk. I'm living with the guy and I watch him target the puk. Everything happens as though he's casting Aero IV on the puk. But the puk's health isn't affected, and the text explicitly states Garuda is being healed. What do you think? Are there other mobs out there that absorb elements and we could test other summons' spells on them to see if it's the same effect? --SongOfChaos 14:17, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
