Re: Here is what pets look like post-nerf...

After hearing claims there was no measurable difference between EM foci mitigation wise, I went out and parsed (on live) an EM 20 vs EM 15 Earth pet (sent the data to Aristo): Both parses are ~1000 seconds long. First, here is an EM 20 Earth pet buffed with Burnout Rk. III and Certitude Rk. II (spel...

Re: Pet Changes (Current and Future)

/sigh In my opinion these changes are not ready. They've come a long way from where they started, but there are a number of unaddressed issues. There's absolutely no reason this has to go live with this patch. Maybe they're waiting until TDS to add more pet defensives so they can advertise them as n...

Fair point... If only they hadn't nerfed our other runes :? . Maybe double the max hit on Auspice of Shadows?

Re: Pet Changes (Current and Future)

So I tried two even con trees at the same time in ETWK. After several attempts I'm giving up. Can somebody with more skill at taking on 2 mobs at once test this for me? Even with FBO, Fortify, burnout2, iceflame 2 and J5 cleric buffs my earth pet was destroyed in about a minute. This is EM15 on the...

Re: Pet Changes (Current and Future)

Both data-wise and anecdotally it seems Earth pets decreased rather than increasing. So either Aristo messed up the patch notes or the AC values (or maybe avoidance changed?). As far as RS pets go, they're closer to where they need to be, but I think they need just a bit more to get to where they sh...

Re: Pet Changes (Current and Future)

With the number of us who have EM 20 Pet Ears (or around that level focus), I tried these changes out with an EM 15 pet ear that I saved just in case of such an occurence. I posted the parses on the thread. To be completely honest our single target tanking is in pretty good shape, and certainly mana...

Re: Pet Changes (Current and Future)

For a comparison, Here's 3 EM 20 RS pets on test currently (divide total damage by 3 for average HP): Tanking summary for: Sancus`s pet --- Total damage: 347940 --- Avg hit: 9156 --- Swings: 57 --- Defended: 15 (26.3%) --- Hit: 38 (66.7%) --- Missed: 4 (7%) --- Accuracy: 90.5% --- Dodged: 1 (2.3%) -...

Re: Pet Changes (Current and Future)

Does anyone have a solid parse of RS pet HP before the Argin-Hiz patch? I went back through my logs to look for fights where I A) Didn't get hit B) Cast 1 RS pet and C) It had greater than 110K HP. Tanking summary for: Sancus`s pet --- Total damage: 159783 --- Avg hit: 5326 --- Swings: 43 --- Defend...
