ENC charmed pet question

[Villia]

Haven't played in a while. Was just wondering if anything has changed with giving torches to charmed pets to increase their DPS?

[Loke]

I haven't paid attention recently, but last time I checked the torch still caused the pet to dual wield, despite claims to the contrary. The only major change is that they have brought back looting pet weapons, so if you want to use a weapon with a particular proc instead of a torch, you can now kill your pet and loot the weapon when you're done.

the above poster has never checked and provided a lot of miss information

have a great day

a single torch does not force a pet to dw

it now requires 2 individual weapons for a charmed npc to properly dw

check the patch notes fay gate

Woah champ, ease up with the unnecessary hostility. I haven't used my chanter aside from a buff bot for a few months, which is why I clearly stated that I hadn't checked recently. However, even after the patch mobs were still DW with torch....

If you've actually tested it and confirmed pets are no longer DW with a torch, then I stand corrected, but if you're just going off the patch notes you might want to double check your info.

torches definitely still allow a pet to dual wield despite mentions to the contrary in patch notes

ok i just tested it out and torches do actually work now, even though i and a few other chanters can confirm they stopped working after a patch sometime last year. that's when we switched to using mandolins.

credit goes to Muahdib for discovering this, but i think most people found it out from watching my stream. ;)
