My friend and I were having a discussion about Farseers on Jetbikes. He believes that since their entry in the codex gives them no armor save that they are never entitled to one. I personally believe that being on a jetbike should confer them a 3+ armor save as well as an increase in toughness from 3 to 4.

Guardians have a 5+save with toughness 3, but put them on jetbikes and they have an armor save of 3 and toughness 4. I believe the concept is the same for Farseers, as well as warlocks for that matter.

Jetbikes DO give them a 3+ armour save, the +1 T bonus in addition to their normal 4+ inv (like biker warlocks).

You are correct; it is on Page 40 if he really wants to see the relevant rules

Ah that it easy, I find it very easy to miss things in the Eldar Codex. Thanks for the quick replies guys!

Remember its T 3(4), not T 4... so a S6+ weapon can still insta-gib(ID) your farseer.
