Mage epic useless in raids

    Our mage pet ice procs are 100% resisted now, get too much aggro with the stun because if the tank some how dies, all AGGRO is gone to you because of the pet aggro changes. May I suggest giving a buff that allows us to turn off mage epic pet stun, and change our pet proc to something like backstab because as of now a water elemental pet would do more dps than our epic due to not relying on a proc to do more dps. Makes all that time getting our epic really wasteful : /.

    The problem is a side effect of the MotM buff. We inherit all aggro from our pet, the epic pet can easily pull aggro from warriors even with taunt off, then that all passes to the mage. Even worse if you try using a swarm pet like DDD or RoZ as these pets already come with a high aggro component, which then passes on to the mage. Then to add insult to injury, your pet damage is halved. Boss buffs were poorly thought out mechanisms and implemented in an even worse fashion.
