RF455-076 RF 4.55: Cora Animus stop at Lv50, use no FP after summoning, and have no Paimon taunt or Hecate stun

Game: RF 4.55 (Dragonborn), server v0.3.1, Windows build (stock gameserver.exe). Client: the supported Taiwan build, RF_Online.bin SHA-256 46528aac…2bbc558 (2025-07-16), Language=Taiwan. Expected (wiki) credit to RFDB for https://wiki.rfdatabase.net/ :

• Update 4.151 "Ataraxia Arrival": Animus Lv75, and all four use FP from Lv1. The roles: Paimon a tank (4.15: a stronger passive Provoke), Hecate fast attacks that can stun, Inana heals its owner, Isis the highest ATK.
• 4.55 (January 2025): Animus much stronger, and levelling takes less EXP.

Summary

• An animus can't pass Lv50 (read). The server keeps animus EXP in a uint32, and the level tables run to Lv81. L50 needs 3,200,000,000 EXP in total and L51 needs 7,360,000,000, which doesn't fit.
• After the 60 FP summon, an animus costs no FP (read). The per-second upkeep is the level row's m_nUseFP, which is 0 up to Lv55 in the data. The cap is 50, so it's never charged.
• Paimon has no taunt and Hecate no stun (read). The server's animus code has a branch for Inanna (the heal) and Hecate (an area hit) only. The data column that marks Hecate's attack effect (m_nAttEffType 10) isn't loaded.

The data (read from gamedata_rf455.db, paimoncharacter; the other three and the _s twins have the same EXP and FP columns):

Server side (all read, v0.3.1)

• The level loader gamedata.(*Data).AnimusLevels 0x140506ca0 loads 19 columns: m_dwIndex, m_nLevel, m_nForLvUpExp, m_nUseFP, m_fPenalty, m_nMaxHP, m_nHPRecUnit, m_nMaxFP, m_nFPRecUnit, m_nAttExt, m_nMovSpd, m_nAttack_DP, m_fAttGap, m_nAttSpd, m_nStdDefFc, m_nAttFcStd, m_nMinAFSelProb, m_nMaxAFSelProb, m_nAttSklUnit.
  • Not loaded: m_nAttEffType, m_nDefEffType, the tech IDs (m_strAttTechID1, m_strPSecTechID, m_strMSecTechID), the tolerances and the force columns.
• The Lv50 cap:
  • the animus EXP is a dword at +8 of the live animus (handleAnimusRecall 0x140768af8);
  • animusTopStorableExp 0x140764900 returns the largest m_nForLvUpExp that fits in it, which is L50's;
  • animusAlterExp 0x14076c860 compares the level byte with 0x32 (50) before a level-up (0x14076cc8c-0x14076cca4).
• FP:
  • the summon spends 60 FP from the master: mov ebx,0x3c at 0x140769644, then (*client).spendFP;
  • animusTickOne spends m_nUseFP every second (0x14076e6d7) and returns the animus if the master can't pay. For Lv1-50 that's 0.
• Roles: the class is the level-table index & 3 (0 Paimon, 1 Hecate, 2 Inanna, 3 Isis).
  • animusAttackStep 0x14076fb74: class 2 → animusHealStep 0x140770180 (heals the master).
  • animusSwing 0x140773648: class 1 → animusAreaSplash 0x140772580. The others hit one target.
  • There is no class-0 (Paimon) branch anywhere, and no stun is applied.

Suggested fix

• Store animus EXP in 64 bits (the thresholds are already 64-bit in the data), and cap at 75 as 4.151 says, or at whatever the 4.55 level is meant to be.
• Give the data an FP cost from Lv1, or charge a per-attack FP cost, as 4.151 says.
• Load m_nAttEffType and give Hecate's hits their stun chance; give Paimon a taunt (monsters near it target it first).
