I'm pretty sure pets getting dual wield at a level cap is classic, and it was removed due to the devs feeling pets were overpowered (atleast thats what i recall skin reading). If that is indeed the case, I'd say an unnerfing is in order due to this exping change, making the overpoweredness of chain petting moot due to it not yielding much exp anymore.

Yeah I meant when was it changed on live. That's what matters. I don't like seeing that they may have changed it because they think pets are OP. Did they think classic pets were OP?

original eq:
apr 2000 - kunark opens
8 months later...
nov 2000 patch notes: Higher level Magician, Necromancer, and Shadowknight pets now have the ability to dual-wield without being handed weapons.

project 1999:
mar 25 - kunark opens

so, according to the timeline, we should be getting this ability back any day now!

lol should.

You guys forget that this server isn't a classic server. They may do things in the name of "classic" but it is mostly a custom classic server.

They do a good bit of "feeling", much like WoW does when they change classes. They "feel" that the class is OP and then make retarded changes and screw crap up, then "feel" that they can't undo it or they'll be considered wrong so they have to fix the "fix".

I just find it funny that you see devs posting all over threads that are drama filled, yet strangely theres no one here answering any of these peoples questions/concerns. Custom Classic Everquest ftw.

any time someone says something that is obviously dumb, you see nilgob and the krew pounce on it like a piece of meat so they can ridicule someone. but when you raise a genuine, logical, thought-out point your post is usually drowned in the other shit and ignored.

my question is...

In a group setting if say you have 3 mages, does the group as a whole have to out dps all 3 pets to get full xp? How does that work out?

If they want this to be classic and follow the timeline, yes we will.

(I know there was sarcasm in your reply, and in a way my reply is sarcastic too)

So, it would seem we don't have a definitive answer as to how the experience is distributed with pets. Have I missed a clear answer? I'm having a bit of trouble trying to out damage my pet without dying. It requires SoW it would seem since I'm going to be handling all the aggro as soon as I land the first nuke.

I choosed a pet class because I cant give full time on a raid or a group to be a cleric or tank. When wife talks I can stop and resume my gaming after, this is discouragin me from playing, so I will take a break on game till I do have ilusion again on leveling.
