If nothing got changed from beta then it isn't just the necro ones having this issue, there seem to be issues with the swarm pets for all of the primary pet classes (necro, beast, mage) at least, I'm not sure about non-pet classes. https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/ls-swarm-pets-are-not-upgrades.294233/
Not yet. There wasn't a mention of it on the test patch. https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq...ch-notes-and-discussions.295374/#post-4275081
After 1/17/2024 Patch: Enhanced Minion XXXII lvl 120 - Call Skeleton Mass Rk. III 63465 Max Hit 128,559 Average Hit 55,116 DPS: 188,688 lvl 125 - Call Skeleton Thrall Rk. II Max Hit: 76,762 Average Hit: 42,353 DPS: 164,462 What question does the Dev have? This has been reported since Nov 21, 2023.
It was reported as soon as pets worked on beta so its been longer then that. Are LS swarm pets for all classes going to see a dps fix or is Aristo packed away until Halloween?
If I had to guess, based on the promised changes during the NoS beta for SKs and Paladins and Zerks, that the latter is the correct expectation.
But this is nothing like the promise of after the fact adding new AA for these classes. These are Laurion's Inn class spells for at least 4 different classes not working properly. Aristo screwed the pooch and he has had 4 months to fix it. There are far more pressing things now but this predated a lot of those issues and these should have been fixed on beta. Not begging here for it to finally be addressed in February 2024 when hes known about it since early October 2023. I believe the case for all these swarm pets is their max hits for critical or regular is set lower then ToL pets. He needs to change the data in the pet tables to be higher then that of the older pets. Not put his head in the sand having shipped broken spells.
After running over to test and seeing ToL swarm. Thank you for this outcome. It absolutely makes sense now. Just a run down from the swarm pet crunch over the last year. Pre Crunch: 210K DPS Crunch: 67K DPS ( 3 months ) Crunch Fix: 188K DPS In line with mages "fix": 112K Roughly 5 months going on about this issue and the only response is removing 50%~ of the dmg over the course of changes. Good coms. Noted.
