Pets always will seem OP at earlier timelines and/or pre-twinkage, since out of the box a pet tanks pretty decently. Once real tanks start getting some gear they far surpass a pet. With kunark gear (and soon Velious gear) that gap gets wider. Thus maybe during classic 20 mages (plus support classes im sure) taking down a raid boss was OP but in this timeline 20 of anyone can probably do the same.
Kind of like the big tado about wiz manaburn teams back in the day. They nerfed them about the same time when people were killing them with even less people.
I'm just so happy pets are finally getting some attention. Even if not much gets changed it's good they are at least bring evaluated. Please make sure to take a look at mage pet casting not enough as well (splorfs post)
