Theoretically. But mage pet spells are borked on this server. Instead of firing them off ever 6-10 seconds (12-15 if using air) they're firing them off like 2-3 times a minute(20-30 second delay). Earth pet root only lasts 3 ticks max so in order to reliably perma root you'd need at least 3. Much better if their aggro just gets fixed then you can use the better DPS water/fire pets for most cases.

Well first I need to figure out if we are 100% sure if pets attacking a single npc caps at 4. In the case of a full raid, how do 4+ people consisting of pet classes function? Do they just wait in a queue by order of which player clicked attack first?

And my final question: If pets do indeed cap at 4, assuming necros or a necro is already included in the mix, what would the ideal composition be?

Thanks in advance!

maybe 5 + 1 chanter and id be down :)

I'd be up for 4 Mages + 1 Necro + 1 Ench! Have always wanted to do a dedicated group like this, just hard finding folks that can get on a similar schedule and all agree to play when everyone else is playing :)

Also, due to every additional player you add making it that much harder to coordinate, as well as being much less efficient experience wise (won't have enough mobs), I'd also be up for a pet class trio instead. Ench/Mage/Necro or Ench/Ench/Ench :)

I'm available and consistently online in the evenings/weekends 8pm-12am PST

I wouldn't mind giving it a shot can play necro or mage. I'm on EST here so should be able to make it a few days a week.

I'd be down for a 6 pet class group. Sounds hilarious.

If I had the time to dedicate to it I'd be in to play a mage in a pet-class only guild.

Someone should totally make a guild and name it 'Zoo Keepers of Norrath', only allowing Enchanters/Necromancers/Mages/Shaman(once they're 34+) into it.

Or maybe the 'Norrathian Kennel Club' or 'WestCommons Kennel Club'

Well the turnout on this group looks pretty promising!

I am trying to do a window of about 2 sessions during the weekdays, and 1 sunday night if at all possible, roughly 10pm to 12am. Remember, this is something that really doesn't require too much effort, and that is kind of the whole idea. Shouldn't have to cost you any plat (unless you want it to) and should be a moderately laid back experience, while having fun at the same time, and building up a nice fun alt of yours to play in your spare time.

The class composition is still up in the air, but would really like for it to stick to at least 4 pet classes, and if possible, more.

If you are interested, please drop me a PM. (Also you can reach me on any of the chars in my sig)

Did we figure out about the 4 pet max?

I remember doing this in EQ during Velious expansion, but my memory ends there, I cannot remember what zone we did.
