All of that stuff sounds good in theory, but doesn't mean diddly when fights last 30 seconds on average (didn't make this number up--its an average of a sample from 200 fights in OT from my logs).

I see from your sig that you have a level 53 rogue, but I question how much time you spent duoing with druids and necros. If you did a lot of it you would quickly see that you don't need any extra DPS from pets (or dots or whatever) to make the duo more effective. All you need is someone who can chain-pull at maximum speed with minimal downtime (i.e. druid). (Note about downtime: the extra mana cost of darkness, fear and lifetap FAR outweighs the mana regen provided by lich).

I spent many hours duoing with BOTH necros and druids on my rogue. It's how I got most of my levels. Despite having a druid main, I have no bias here. These were just my observations over time and the results were very clear.
