is currently insane. I just did a monk fight in LOIO, and the L40 charmed dwarf merchant was generating more hate than my L60 epic/shissar warrior. I know that pet aggro has recently been tuned upwards for the sake of magicians getting stomped less, but in my opinion this is just as unbalanced.
The problem is that the charmed pets do 2-3x as much damage as the elementals and skeletons, so it's going to be very hard to tune such that both types generate a reasonable amount of hate. My suggestion is to make each NPC generate hate as a primarily function of its level and not the damage it does. Since the charmed pets and elementals have similar levels they can be tuned in a similar way.
I have no idea how classic this is.
