Test Update 8/01/2014 - Pet Changes

Thank you very much for the info and clarification. Will happily test out the changes.

Which a cleric merc would not be able to do, on harder T1 names and all T2 names, when the pet is taking 10k-15k average hits

I love of analogies but this is a bit off. "Missing isnt the way to word it, the mob will miss player tanks about 10% more, but figuring actives, Mage pets have prism. But regardless, the question should really be, if we are considering the average hit differences demonstrated in the parses:

- would u rather take 150k total damage but maybe with 2 triple-spikes of 30k rounds (warrior)
- or would u rather take 300k total damage, but maybe with one double spike of 60k rounds (pet)

Risk is a factor of how frequently the spikes come but also how high in dmg/second they go, and the total damage taken matters more and more in non-ideal group comps (meaning too few players, not enough gear) where the dps to the named is not matching the dps taken and the cleric merc(s) is going to oom
