Sorry for the necro, but this brought back huge memories. This was a BIG deal. It causes an uproar all across Everquest. Everyone heard about it on every server. Wasn't there an example of a level 50 warrior getting stomped by a sand giant and a level 50 necro pet STOMPING a sand giant? It caused the first necro pet nerf. the very first necro pet ever was so ridiculous, it hit for high 80's I think? It was nuts.

Everquest has never been fair for melee, they simply weren't designed well. But it's a huge reason why playing melee can be so damn rewarding and why twinking them is so fun and why gearing them is so rewarding.
