Derived stats only affect players and player pets; they do not affect NPCs

<p>The title of this thread is from the Test Update Notes. Would someone explain it to me please ?</p><p>It sounds like 'you do not share stats with an NPC that you charm'.</p><p>If this is the case then this how does this affect Possess Essence ?</p><p>If PE pets are affected by shared stats but charmed pets are not then you might as well ditch coercer charm.</p>

<p>To me it sounds enemies also got these stats and since some have crazy big stats, they became too powerful so they fixed it.</p>

<p>Yep, sounds like they added the conversion and the mobs with buffs that gave +1000 DPS (They had a habit of doing this to ensure debuffs couldn't render them irrelevant) suddenly became god-mode.  So they stopped it from applying to them.</p>
