Pet Offensive buff nerf

[Scyros]

<DIV>Not sure if this was intended or not but my lvl 53 pet buff "Voice of the Departed" seems to have had it's proc changed.  I don't have the numbers from the master 2 version pre LU16 but at adept 3 it did 360 dmg and healed 80 hp.  After LU16 at master 2 it does 196 and heals 94 hp.  This seems to have had a pretty big impact on my scout pets DPS but I did not see it in the patch notes.  </DIV>

<DIV>Earlier the procs on that buff was not working and now it is .</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Also pet procs the heal a lot and the 206 dam(master 2 with 400 int) and now pet is tankign preaty good with this offensive buff, the diff to defense ad1 I got is minor realy.master 1 lv52 pet usign this m2 buff is owning almost all by him self ^^^ lv 50 mobs when earlier pet required  my ad1 defense buff to last all fight.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Well, making pet tanking ^^^ with defensive ad1 vs M2 offenside  I go M2 all the time, the defensive instance is buged or Depart buff is just soo uber now.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Also the charmed pet will proc the heals and nukes as well, Warrior pet +charmed one are owning mobs down ,omg, I am having more fun using those both instead switchign to scout pet that btw got weakned (not just on pharse but when comparign to warrior pet ).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I did not test grim pet yet but I bet it still suxors unfortunetely,anyways  depart would not help it as much as adigation M2 with its +36 int bonus.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Allowen</DIV> <DIV>60 necro</DIV> <DIV>mistmoore server</DIV>

<DIV>Yea the proc was working.  I guess the devs just didnt want our pets proc doing that much damage?  Anyways another 50% nerf to that hurts more than some realize.  With only a 13 and 20% increase to our dots our dps is hurt more than I initially thought, but ah well, what can you do.  I guess we just have to find more ways of optimizing our dps.</DIV>

[El Chupacabr]

<DIV>I don't think it was intended, probably something to do with that change to whatever globals Blackguard mentioned.  There were just too many changes to a class that the Devs have said are right where they're s'posed to be.  Unintended nerf for sure.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>And yes, Clawing of the Soul has always worked.</DIV>

<DIV>The damage reduction on the pet stance was not intentional. It's scheduled for a hotfix next week.</DIV>
