I guess this question's answer may change come DOV. regardless. which enchanter has the better pet. I know illy can always have the pet since they dont need to charm or possess anything, but is the coercer one more powerful?
Well - in raid zones - the coercer pet never lives for more than a few seconds. The illy pet seems to survive more because it ranges. That said - coercer pets are doing a lot of damage right now. Just sad that they're useless in raid zones.
