<div>Read this in the update:</div><div> </div><div>- The pets of NPC Necromancers and Conjurors now have less health than a standard NPC of their level. This makes killing NPC pets in combat more of a viable tactic.</div><div> </div><div>Some of our prayers have been heard. Hopefully it wont be so attractive with pet tanking in groups anymore. Maybe us warriors actually have a group role now <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></div><div>Have to logon and see the changes in action to get a better view, but im keeping my hopes up.</div><div> </div>

Has there been any parses of pet hitpoints prior to the patch at all? Would be interesting to see how much they got nerfed. Prolly better to ask in the nec/con forums i spose...</p><p>But in any case, less pet hitpoints does help the warriors cause even how small it may be.</p>

When I read about the Pets I took it to mean the Non Player Character Pets had their hit points reduced, Not the Player Pets. So if you go to the Conjuror or Necromancer forums they may look at you funny if you tell them that their pets have been nerfed, cause from what I read, they have not.</div><div> </div><div>NPC - Non Player Character: IE< This is not you</div><div>PC - Player Character: IE< This IS you</div><div> </div><div>I didn't see anything that said this change will affect the normal players who are conj or Necro.</div>

<div></div><p>I know he got this patch note wrong, but to celebrate a class getting nerf, is just not really nice behavior. Now lets get back to posting more "guardian suck" posts shall we? That way we can have the Guard forum back where it belongs.</p>
