I went: AGI  4/4/4/4INT  4/4/4/6STA 1
I might respect as I seem to be using my scout pet more than the mage pet now for raiding.. pet AE's really [Removed for Content] certain classes off and the INT line doesn't do a whole lot in comparison to the side heals from being in the WIS line..  Also  INT is so easy to build up I thought about taking the raw stats alone and just maxing my stamina points so I could get my HP a little higher and maybe wisdom after that as with proper gear and max range AE's are becoming a joke to laugh at.

Str - 4/4/8/8/0
Agi - 4/4/4/8/0
Wis - 5

I'm considering replacing that with;

Str - 4/4/5/8/0
Int - 4/4/4/8/1

Only because I can keep my pet out of the Aoe's almost indefinately.

I can't agree. I use tankpet only in raid. You only have to get in a mele-group and your tankpet will become a little berserker. SMILEY It's easy for me to outparse every other mage in the raid, reaching dps close to our top-ranger and by the way healing, heartcasting, rezzing and debuffing (incl. dollcasting).

If I end up in a melee group then yes, I will use the tank pet more frequently, a stifled tank pet with dps buffs does do decent damage, but not as much as a the mage pet in a mage group with a trouby.

The dead cannot DPS SMILEY.

Last night on Chel'Drak, our Conj had Mage pet out, was jousting it, I had stifled fighter pet.

Conj sends pet in, jousing it, see a deathprotect go off on the pet, next aoe, pet dies. Conj pulls aggro.  Conj dies.

I'm steadily DPS'n without a touch of aggro and ended up out dps'n the conj, and my pet killed hers in DPS.

yeah, slow and steady wins the race.  and chel'drak is a bad fight to be pulling aggro, there is so much going on it is hard to handle all the adds while trying to move around the mob itself and get it repositioned and making sure healers don't go out of range or lose line of sight.i love my pet AE immunity because it is great for fights like chel'drak and is pretty nice on matron too.  pretty much any fight where pet can die to an AE hehe.
