Seriously, all he does is miss and die. I went to replay the story of the wedding in Mooshu. When we got the gift, he kept on missing and within a few rounds, he DIED. He is not as good as I thought.

Give him riposte level 2 and give him relentless. Give him max dodge, to trigger that riposte. Train him in Max accuracy, rough, agility and what ever shielding you can fit in. He is one of those hard hitters the you will need to protect so he can do his job. Remember our mantra: Protect your squishies If you put Valor's Armor or Shield on him you will be stunned at what he can do. It's not that he is no good, you have a responsibility to train him so that he can excel for you.

Never thought I'd see the day someone dislikes El Toro...

Did you promote him..? Or are you keeping his level high? As magnificent as he is, if you don't train him and promote, then he'll fall behind for good reason...

I second that motion! lol, always wanted to say that ... Toro's not magnificent ............he's EPIC! I don't care you have to take care of him, he's just wow! ...
'' Um, Ashley? Your blushing'' says Bonnie, giggling.
'' I am?'' Ashley slaps her cheeks and feels her hand burning.'' Oh ... sorry got carried away. Please tell me he didn't hear a word''
The bull steps out from a corner. '' Every word, my young friend''
Ashley feels her face burning even more.
'' That's it ... I'm in a volcano'' she jokes, putting a cold glass to one cheek.

Now now, be nice. It is just her writing style. It is to get us to respond to it and how she gets her information. She is playing devil's advocate.

You are quite welcome. It is what we are here for, along with making each other giggle and blessing each other.

El Toro has always been one of my favorite characters. His attitude (character wise), and his abilities fight wise I have found are quite valuable. He is almost always my "Firstmate" as his accuracy/dodge spell is a great place to start helping the entire team.

I do a lot of video capture, and I have found that if you hit CTRL-G to get rid of interface stuff and get in a battle by accident that you cannot do anything but wait out the entire battle (or exit the game).
Thank goodness El Toro is my firstmate to be there to take out all the mobs when this happens!
His Riposte and Relentless clean up! ;) (obviously it depends on what level mobs your fighting as well)

Yes I have been aware of that CTRL-G battle hazard many times. I love to inch up on a bad guy to get a good screenshot with them and use CTRL-G to get a clean shot but boy if I accidentally right click as I move things around and it makes my character move and starts the battle them I am totally stuck and I have to flee and then need to fill back up my life and just pray that I don't get that occasional glitch that puts me back in to the battle with 1 life instead of at the nearest life fountain Yup there is no way out of that but to reset the game. I wonder if that is fixable? Hey KI exterminators, any hope

I always give my companions as much accuracy and dodge as possible, as well as their specialty, (agility, strength, will). Giving them a lot of their specialty males it so they do more damage and
And criticals more often.

Hope this Helps! Lvl 65

Ever since I've used El Toro, he was very useful. He does miss time to time, but for me, I didn't even give him accurate and he usually hits all the time. It could just be that you're getting really unlucky, but honestly I think it could be the enemies; the samurai block attacks a lot, but it could be because they have a high amount of dodge.
