Mage shouldn't need anything either past basic resist gear, jboots, epic, lvl 55, coth and velk boots. I guess maybe if someone went all the way and got full BIS and a Willsapper to tank for their pet, maybe they could pull off some crazier things. Yet to be seen?

As a bot or a personal character? Quad DA is a world of difference for your purpose in life. Air and Water focus staves are easy and nice upgrades. No way a mage is tanking for its pet since it has no HP recovery system. Can’t even slow with a sapper without taking tons of damage due to npc’s prioritizing players over pets. Maybe you could run in/out each combat round and try to joust a proc. In most cases with a sapper a mage would just be helping slow preslow stuff like a worse ranger.

Can you give a nodrop willsapper to a pet?

No drop items to a pet get poofed without the pet benefiting.
