How does Rage of Zomm and Dyzil's Decoy work?

[wuanahto]

Does Dyzil have a limited duration?
if dyzil is a regular pet why cant it use equipment as per wiki
does rage of zomm "stack" with a regular pet?

Dyzils Is a regular pet. I only ever gave it nuzzles,so no clue if city actually takes gear.
You cannot rage of zomm with a pet up

Rage of Zomm is hot garbage.
Dyzill’s is actually not bad for a tanking fire pet until the 57 Earth. It just does crummy DPS. If root isn’t an issue a focused 49 Earth is the one to use to 57.

49 Earth is usually one of the worst pets to use in group, the others do more DPS, and for solo exp grinding the 49 Fire pet is usually best.

I have to disagree. Because P99 doesn't implement pet chaining properly, I wouldn't level with anything but the Earth pet here (at 49 or any other level).

With any other pet, you are guaranteed to get beat on the moment you drop the old pet.

I imagine you can get around this by using a bio orb. Blind the mob before chain summoning the next pet, so the mob won't immediately run towards you when the previous pet dies. The mob will attack the new pet when it gets into melee range while it's blinded. Recast bio orb a few times to make sure the new pet agro sticks.

That being said, many people can't afford to put a bio orb on their Mage. Just pointing out you probably could do a pet chain without an earth pet if you had a bio orb in the server's current state.

FTFY:

Because P99 fucked up the pet chaining with no notice, no acknowledgement, and despite mountains of evidence still won't fix it.

The OP asked about DDD which is a different flavor of the same concept, a mid-range tanking pet. I be presumed for solo use as DDD in a group would be mediocre.

You don't need to fight things that require chain pet cast. Fire pet and a couple damage spells is sufficient for killing low blue cons.
