My idea for the MS line pet was basically as a raid only pet and very situational at that. They can create the pet to ignore focus which should be pretty easy since they only have to make one version of it and duplicate if they even need to do that. The focus just tells the spell to summon a differ...

...two posts up You have to future proof which I hope they try and do in development. So say they only want us to get a 15k damage max upgrade this expansion from that aa. Next expansion they might look to boost it 20k damage max upgrade with that aa. They either increase the aa mod which would mea...

A lot of the solutions that people seem to like increase sustained dps, not our burst. Increasing nukes or giving a lower recast boosts our sustained. Increasing pet power like the fire pet to be a raid pet also increases sustained dps. Giving us a new nuke increases sustained. See the common proble...

Making us melee for DPS won't help us in the slightest, and limiting it to constructs would be a joke (there are so few of them on raids it would be a waste of time). We are spell casters - our spells is where our DPS should be coming from, not from our extremely weak melee capabilities. What are y...

Make me a battle mage. Just give us a huge melee proc with a limit counter and improve our stone core (or give us an alternative to compensate) since we'd need to be engaged in melee to increase dps from swings between casts. It isn't limited to having a pet out but using a pet would help tremendous...

If other classes had spells that required pets or pets had some other utility that would benefit the raid then yes we could use that to overcome that obstacle. Maybe give them malo aura with a dmg mod intact. It doesn't have to benefit only us but let it just give us a greater advantage cause we own...

You are forgetting that even if most guilds DID ban pets, that's an argument for more nuke changes. If you can't have a pet out, what's the point of beefing those? And what's a death count? Where each death powers up a mob? If so, your guild is completely retarded and just a few peeps using swarms ...

Yes there are still events that for one reason or another the guild thinks it's good to ban pets. Almost every single event with a death count mechanic pets are auto banned. Also rarely are exceptions between swarm pets and reg pets. No pets usually mean no pets. If you are using your pet at all hav...

That said, as a mag I can't ignore my pet and would want any new future ability or spells that address this issue to be linked to (not from) our pet. Just giving us bigger nukes or quicker casts blurs our identity. Tuli, that you? If not, you sound like a Tuli parrot. Logically show the community h...

...---Pet Based Raid DPS Ideas--- Idea 1: Weaken the Pet, Debuff the Mob A pet buff like Iceflame line, does not stack with Iceflame line (pick one or the other!) --Reduce Pet Mitigation by 50% --Add Proc: Elemental Weakness... The idea of sacrificing defense for increased offense with pets shouldn...
