 Since the implementation on 20 June 2025 of [https://forum.muhro.eu/d/3963-patch-notes-1168-20-june-2025 Patch #1168] which fixed all classes' skills involving their CD, ACD, FCT, and VCT requirements, an {{#icon:300377}}{{#linkitem:300377|(MVP) Ultra Limacina Card}} is now a must for PW build to be played to its best capacity, particularly with drop rate shoes. {{#icon:25420}}{{#linkitem:25420|Sorcerer Stone (Garment)}} can't be replaced with the combo {{#icon:25170}}{{#linkitem:25170|Minor Casting Stone (Garment)}} + {{#icon:1000521}}{{#linkitem:1000521|Minor Casting Stone (Dual)}} since the Sorcerer Stone (Garment) is needed to reduce PW's CD when paired with a {{#icon:25419}}{{#linkitem:25419|Professor Stone (Low)}}. You have '''three''' ('''3''') '''options''' to choose from where you can get 1.5s FCT, each with their own drawbacks:
-# Call forth <span style="color:green;">Ventus</span> and summon her in any of her [[The Complete Elemental Master Guide by Goldie#Elementals|three forms]] (Child, Adolescent, & Adult) and place her in '''Passive Mode''' using '''Level 1 {{#skill:2456}}''' to get an instant 1 second FCT and +5 ASPD. I prefer to use her Adult form in this case since Adult <span style="color:green;">Ventus</span> gets longer duration (20 minutes) than her younger counterparts (10 or 15 minutes) and you can use <span style="color:gray;">Neutral</span> PW. On the other hand, Adolescent form when placed in Passive Mode will forcibly endow your PW to the <span style="color:green;">Wind</span> element and you may use this form if <span style="color:gray;">Neutral</span> element is not suitable in the dungeon you're farming; while Child form is just cheaper on the catalyst cost. The only drawback to this option is you cannot use '''https://static.divine-pride.net/images/skill/5380.png <span style="background:linear-gradient(to right, #FF3F34 0%, #2C6FBB 25%, #268F15 50%, #B5651D 75%, #800080 100%); -webkit-background-clip:text !important; -webkit-text-fill-color:transparent;">Elemental Buster</span>''' and endow your PW to either <span style="color:red;">Fire</span>, <span style="color:blue;">Water</span>, <span style="color:brown;">Earth</span> or <span style="color:purple;">Poison</span> element, but these are just small prices to pay so you can use PW, cycle your 4th job DoT skills, and still have the capability to wear drop rate shoes and even {{#item:19136}}.

On the other hand, Adolescent form when placed in Passive Mode will forcibly endow your PW to the <span style="color:green;">Wind</span> element and you may use this form if <span style="color:gray;">Neutral</span> element is not suitable in the dungeon you're farming; while Child form is just cheaper on the catalyst cost.

 # When wearing drop rate shoes and you have no Ultra Limacina Card, you will now need to substitute it with either {{#icon:470094}}{{#linkitem:470094|Hero Boots-LT}} or {{#icon:470204}}{{#linkitem:470204|Moan of Corruption}} to achieve 1.5s FCT. Hero Boots-LT is your closest choice that gives a good balance of damage and utility since it gives 1 second FCT when it's Grade A and refined to +13 and when the {{#icon:310911}}{{#linkitem:310911|Knowledge of Wise Man}}enchant procs it will give +'''100 INT'''.
 # Other options to supply the missing FCT include the combo of Thanatos Accessories consisting of {{#icon:490052}}{{#linkitem:490052|Sinful Sapphire Ring}} + {{#icon:490053}}{{#linkitem:490053|Sinful Sapphire Necklace}}(0.3s FCT), and {{#icon:490064}}{{#linkitem:490064|Brilliant Light Sapphire Ring}} + {{#icon:490065}}{{#linkitem:490065|Brilliant Light Sapphire Necklace}}(0.2s FCT), then wearing {{#icon:24747}}{{#linkitem:24747|Spell Caster Shadow Armor}} + {{#icon:24748}}{{#linkitem:24748|Spell Caster Shadow Shoes}} (0.3s FCT when both at +10). And though you will encounter a noticeable damage loss and minor but solvable instant cast problems with that set-up by losing key parts of your HoL set, it will still be good enough to let you farm low to mid game dungeons but not endgame dungeons anymore.
 As the three options are listed according to their importance and tested effectiveness, my go-to choice in the absence of an Ultra Limacina Card will always be the first one because though it doesn't allow me to cast '''https://static.divine-pride.net/images/skill/5380.png <span style="background:linear-gradient(to right, #FF3F34 0%, #2C6FBB 25%, #268F15 50%, #B5651D 75%, #800080 100%); -webkit-background-clip:text !important; -webkit-text-fill-color:transparent;">Elemental Buster</span>''' and endow '''{{#skill:2449}}''' to other elements, it still gives me the ability to cycle my 4th job skills and wear drop rate shoes/headgear. The main idea behind this build anyway is to spam PW as much as possible in any given opportunity and doesn't revolve around Elemental Buster. Just make sure you wear your [[The Complete Elemental Master Guide by Goldie#Tank Gears|tank gears]] when summoning <span style="color:green;">Ventus</span> so she doesn't die that often and then give yourself a minute or two of allowance before attempting to resummon her. Resummon <span style="color:green;">Ventus</span> while she's still active and on Passive Mode so you can capitalize on that 1 second FCT for faster summoning.
