|---|---|---|
| 42% | 73% | |
| 61% | 93% | |
| 82% | 98% | |
| 94% | 100% |

Mau base stats
#With 70 HP, 60 Attack and 70 Defense at base, Mau leans on HP more than any other stat. Its work suitability is Farming 1 and Gathering 1, so it is most valuable on Farming duty, where it sits #23 out of 29. Mau is also a useful parent: 108 children are possible, and Aegidron + Mau gives Bakemi. Being nocturnal, it stays awake and working through the night shift. By the numbers it is a A-tier pick for base worker (every job). Wild Mau start at around level 5; it is an early-game catch.
