Pet confusion...

[Splatterpunk28]

<DIV>Ok, so I am getting a little bit confused, I've read through so many different posts and apparently people respond sometimes months later, and it's just hard to get a feel for what the current situation is.  I think FAQ may be outdated?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Are app1 and Master1 pets exactly the same in terms of hp/ac/dps (only graphic difference)?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>And if that <EM>is</EM> now the case -- I solo about 50% of the time, and the other 50% I duo or trio with other mages -- so my pet needs to tank in nearly every situation.  What pet should I be using until Rotting Thrall (20-3<img src="/smilies/b2eb59423fbf5fa39342041237025880.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />?  I can upgrade whatever I need to, but the pet tanking is a primary need for me (I am not into kiting.)  I am currently using Tellurian Recruit Adept3 and I took the pet buff for level 20 training...</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Any advice would be appreciated.</DIV><p>Message Edited by Splatterpunk28 on <span class=date_text>07-16-2005</span> <span class=time_text>04:14 PM</span>

The FAQ is still correct, if you need a tank use the undying adherant 'til you get the rotting thrall.  The pet scaling is a temporary break and one I won't be including in the FAQ as it's a bad idea to bank on being able to run on app1 since we don't really know when our pets will scale again. The FAQ was written primarily for full groups with mentions of solo, if you're duo'ing with another mage, use the solo advice. <div></div>

<DIV>just don't upgrade the UA to master as it's borked right now and you'll be sorry</DIV>

<DIV>So is all pets not scaleable? Im a lvl 23 necro and Im using the fallen hero pet. Is it not worth it to engage in trying to find the master's of my pet spells?</DIV>

<DIV>I have noticed that the the only difference it makes so far is the look/size of the pet, and between app1 and adept 1, they gain a level...</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I just dinged 34 tonight in runnyeye, and pulled out the thulian to play around with...  he was a blue con and level 33...  went and scribed the adept i had in the bank, and now he is 33, taller, and covered in flames (looks like flames at least)</DIV>
