And how does the mage wipe agro?
Or is there some exploit if only the pet does damage but not the owner?

This doesn't wipe agro, it transfers agro to the mage.

Also, this is not faster than a monk if the mage has to cast a new pet after every kill.

Besides, the monk does more damage than all mage pets (besides fire) and could use a DS potion if he really wanted to be even faster.

I don't know, he says its proven. I assume the study was peer reviewed.

Reclaim energy works as the pet has its own aggro on the aggro list.

I can chain pet a fire pet with a 42 pt DS faster than a monk can mend himself to full for the higher level PL'n.

If you haven't experienced it, that is because you haven't done it with me.

No it doesn't, which is why mages can chain pets to kill things so easily on this server. It's especially easy to PL this way if you use the instant click reclaim energy from mage focus items to drop your pet instantaneously when the mob is at 1 or 2%.

It's not the reclaiming of the pet that takes time and mana, it's the casting of a new one. There is no way a mage can keep up the same pace as a monk with regen and DS. It just sounds very inefficient to me with too much downtime. What sort of mobs are we talking about anyway where it's worth recasting a 42 DS pet per kill?

Also, agro does transfer to the mage but it's minimal. The reason why you can chain pets and not get hit is because the next pet is cast before the mob can get to you. If you didn't cast a new pet in time the mob wouldn't just sit there and do nothing, it would attack you. Hence, agro has been transferred.
