Low level Necro pets are extremly strong and can double attack (?)
 
Server: Green
Tested with spell: Bone Walk (Level 8)
Level of the summoned pet: 9
I did not hand any weapon to the pet.

- Hits for 14 max (Seems fine.)
- Bashes for 13 max (P99 Wiki lists 7 dmg.)
- Kicks for 13 max (P99 Wiki lists 12 dmg.)

But the biggest impact have what seem to be double attacks. The pet swings twice quite often. One example from my logs:

Quote:

[...14:58:19 2024] Jabab hits a bonecrawler for 14 points of damage.
[...14:58:19 2024] Jabab hits a bonecrawler for 9 points of damage.
[...14:58:19 2024] a bonecrawler has been slain by Jabab!
Other low level Necro pets wreck mobs of the same level, too. Are they supposed to be this strong in late Velious?

I feel like (necro) pets need some quite deep research and not just for low levels.

These hits are from a level 44ish pet skeleton against a level 50 giant in frontier mountains.

I have no classic info on pet hit distributions versus reds, admittedly the giant was under a -20 ac debuff but the frequency of max hits against such a high level mob does seem suspicious. Certainly my pc character who outlevelled the giant didn’t see distributions anywhere near so good.
