I'm not suggesting you suspend your current pet, make a new one, and then sac it. I'm suggesting you already have a pet buffed and suspended before a fight, sac the current one, and then pull out the suspended one. There seem to be quite a few people who do something similar already anyway, having a...

It wouldn't benefit you to use it then since you already have a better focus. The perks of this are: 1 - It's a decent summonable (albeit randomly) focus if you don't already have something better. 2 - It's tradeable, so you can give it to someone else who doesn't have as good of a focus item (like ...

IIRC the reason the 5 minute timer came in was because Mages were turned into mana rod machines so other classes could use up the rods and refill mana at will. Ah yes, I remember the days of "summon a rod, drop it in front of the cleric, summon a rod, drop it in front of the cleric" for 5...

Why not just have it as an uber reclaim energy? Sac the pet, get 2K mana, 30 minute reuse timer or something like that. We all like to have our pets nice a tricked out with armor, buffs, toys, etc, so the disadvantage would be you then have to either pull out a suspended pet for the rest of the figh...

Yes, I had checked the vendor who sells the earrings, but unfortunately for some reason that level 70+ armor isn't available to me (wasn't at 72 anyway, may be at 73 now). I had read from others that it doesn't show up until mid to high 70s, but can't seem to get a definitive level for when it becom...

My merc problem is usually more that she moves and then heals herself when the now-tanking pet need it more, and makes me blow my pet lay hands. I don't have COH loaded generally, but I'll keep this in mind when fighting in close quarters where this is most often a problem. Thanks for the tip.

Does this AA have any actual use other than just being fun to smurf with group members? I got it on a whim and while amusing, I'm not sure it's terribly useful, except maybe to un-summon a caster with aggro. I don't think this works on Mercs, which is a shame since I do sometimes have a problem with...

Before I left for a couple of years there was a trick to pet pull mobs single, even in a crowded room. I used it to pull the Wraith of a Shissar from the Amy knight temple in Fear. I'm just curious if this still works or did they fix/nerf it?

I just bought this the other day and I must say it's pretty much crap, at least at rank 1. For me at 73 it does 100 damage per tick and lasts for maybe 10 or so ticks. I only cast it 7-8 times and it never procced for me. Don't know what the proc rate is, so maybe I was just unlucky.

Is there a way to hotkey a bandoleer change and/or item click? I could see this being useful for a chanter with their 1.0 epic. While not as nice of a haste as higher level versions, the click has the same cast time as the fastest cast haste (minus spell haste focus) and is still 66%. Would be a dec...
