Notes/Description
While active, avatars will grant a beneficial status effect to nearby party members, and also reduces their perpetuation cost.

The effects gradually increase over time peaking at a level similar to that of a Corsair rolling a lucky number without the job bonus for each type of buff, shown below. These effects stack with existing effects, including Phantom Rolls, Refresh, Regen, etc. The highest possible values will require a certain amount of summon skill, detailed below the chart.

Avatar's Favor Potency

 * The bonus is dependent on two factors: The time since the last Favor reset, and Summoning Magic skill.
 * Determining the time that Favor has been active is based upon the lowest time of the following three conditions:
 * 1) Activating Avatar's Favor
 * 2) Summoning an Avatar
 * 3) Blood Pact: Rage.
 * Note: Upon using a Blood Pact Rage, the Avatar's Favor flickers off slightly, and then resets to it's base amount.  If an avatar was at max potency prior to the Rage, max favor will recover more quickly, taking approximately half the time (~45 seconds).  If an avatar was not at max potency prior to the rage, it will not recover Favor quickly.
 * Summoning Magic affects the potency of favors.
 * One example is for a level 75 Summoner there is a +1 Refresh potency with Diabolos's Favor when surpassing 317 Summoning Magic Skill.
 * Summoning magic skill used to break tiers of Favor must be constantly worn. With the above example, if you obtain a +4 MP refresh with Diabolos, and then switch into 316 summoning skill, it will reduce the potency down to +3, until you replace your gear to have 317+ skill.
 * Switching the potency of the Favor will cause it to flicker on your screen, and reset the duration it has been active if using a mod to record times.
 * No testing has shown additional potency increases beyond the maximum effect attained at 317 skill.
