<div>Edit: I tested it out on a mob that nuked 1k to 1500 previously with beguile M1, still does.. maybe the pet got the nerf.</div><p>Message Edited by Nuhus on <span class="date_text">02-26-2006</span><span class="time_text">06:58 AM</span></p>

<div></div><p>I tried dominate adept3 and that was hitting for the same as beguile m1 or maybe a little bit less.</p><p>I did the test with a app1 befriend also and that hit for a lot less than the others.</p><p> </p><p>I have a feeling that the master version of charm has been nerfed down to only being a tiny bit better than adept3.</p>

<div>Well, I tried both on the mob that normally hit 1 k to 1500 with beguile M1, with dominate adept III it hit for meh, 700 to 1200 or so...</div><div> </div><div>Not sure how much the pet your talking about used to nuke for, but 500 would be a bit of a drop if it nuked high considering my level is 48, and my pets nuking for more (I think it's a warlock pet) seems like it has something to do with pet abilities possibly, I'll try more see what I find..</div><div> </div><div>Trying to think of the big nukers off of the top of my head... </div>

<div></div><div>NPCs are loaded with random AI scripts. This means which spells they are loaded with, and what order they use em in will not always be the same.</div><div> </div><div>In my experience, every single priest NPC I've charmed has a direct nuke and at least one DoT. And in my experience, if the nukes are around 1.5-2k, then the dots are around 400-500 per tick.</div><div> </div><div>Me thinks you just saw the visionary dotting instead of nuking. I've had some priests that used two dot lines (saw two seperate ticks of damage on offset times.. like 1s: 300, 2s: nothing, 3s: 500, 4s: nothing, 5s: nothing, 6s: nothing, 7s: 300, etc).</div><div> </div><div>Turn on "pet damage" in your chat window and look at the names of the spells he casts.</div><div> </div><div> </div><div>I can tell you from my own personal experience this evening (as of like 2 hours ago), my Master 1 Beguile had a Fury pet nuking for 3600, and dotting for 400. I like furies. :smileywink:</div><div> </div><p>Message Edited by Raidi Sovin'faile on <span class="date_text">02-26-2006</span><span class="time_text">06:38 AM</span></p>

<div></div><p>our coercer just had a wizard pet charmed that casted ice comet for 5k+.</p><p>so if charm really got nerfed 500% it would have nuked for ... um ... 20k+ before ?</p><p> </p>

<div>charm is pretty awesome, dont see how it is nerfed, except if you mean compared to beta.  I've had quite a few pets that are doing 400dps per fight, or just charm a fury pet 4tw, they nuke and heal np np</div>
