Well before this patch - at least according to the p1999 wiki - mage pets began dual wielding innately at 39, thus before you gave them weapons. This was helpful because you could chain summon pets mana efficiently without having to resummon weps ever time to get your elemental to DW.
So, we'll have to see how this change effects soloing tactics on the mage, I doubt it matters much for the necro as they generally are agro/fear kiting in which the pet does not take damage/have to be chain summoned.
