Current state of some enchanter tricks and pet Items?

[mickmoranis]

Wondering what the current state of these classic tricks are:

Torch: Does giving your pet a torch and only a torch still make them Duel Wield and do more dps?
Rings: Are pets still able to wear 2 rings? or only 1? How would anyone know if this were true or not anyway?
Tome of the Eternal: does giving your pet a Tome of the Eternal work like a Torch and allow them to still double attack? or does it remove their ability to attack with the offhand all together?

Besides these items, are there any other neg MR items that drop in classic-vel?
Tome of the Eternal
Adamanatite Band
Riptide Speer
Rusty Spiked Shoulders

Would love to hear what the current state of this stuff is, also would love to know how anyone would know if 1 or 2 rings would be wearable by an NPC.. cant for the life of me determine how anyone would determine if that were or were not true [You must be logged in to view images.

Curious too!

Always heard it's only one ring, you could test it by putting 2 hp rings on a decaying skeleton and breaking charm and melee'ing it, see how many hp it has

Torch or any off-hand non-weapon will trigger dual wield.
Pets only equip one ring/bracer. You can test this with a parser and HP rings like rubicaant suggested.
Tome of the Eternal will trigger DW.
Those are the only -MR gear I'm aware of and currently keep banked, however I really haven't found them necessary so far (only 48). I think you should keep some banked for when you start soloing the big cash camps at 60, but they aren't needed while soloing for Exp or in groups (minus a torch/fun proc'ing weapons).

A bug I've ran into with -MR gear/weapons: Charmed pets under the "Boon of the Garou" buff will sometimes eat weapons/equipment if given while under werewolf illusion. Make sure you give to them in their natural state.

Ahh that's a very clever Idea! Thanks for that insight.
