Grim pets no longer have mana buff?

[cfteagu]

<DIV>Hi, my playtime has been limited since the combat revamp.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>The other night, while on the dock I tried summoning the Grim pet.  I was hoping for him to cast his buff, cause I was hoping that they had added a description to the buff, telling exactly how much mana regen it gave.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Anyways, he didn't cast a buff.  I remember beforehand, it was pretty much the first thing he used to do.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Did they take away the group mana buff that the grim pets used to cast?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

It's gone.

At 54 and adept 3 my mage pet is casting something on the group every fight when a mob dies.  I havent been able to figure out what exactly it does but its fairly obvious he is due to the spell animation and graphic.

<DIV>It may have lost its group buff, but it casts a group lifetap now which heals everyone in your party. Thats pretty leet. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV>

Grim pets also have a group buff that they sometimes cast during combat called "grim barbs"... damage shield, does a little bit of dmg to whatever hits group members.  (Pet isn't smart enough to cast it at the beginning of every fight, so not really all that great). <div></div>
