What level do pets dual wield with weapons?

[Captain Faceplant]

When you hand pets weapons, what level will they dual wield at? (The level of the pet, not the caster.)

I know this question is older than time but forum searches are, as a rule, useless, including this forum, and I have not played a classic pet class before now.

what class you are would help a lot when answering this question.

here is link to wiki
http://wiki.project1999.org/Main_Page

goto pet guide (on the left hand nav bar)
http://wiki.project1999.org/Pet_Guide

scroll down til you find your class and profit.

Mage pets. That guide has a section on dual wielding, but oddly, does not say what level it happens. It only says "In classic, pets must be given two 1H weapons in order to dual wield". Does that mean it starts at level 1, then?

pretty sure its the lvl 24 pet (maybe 20?). maybe ill log in my mage and check, maybe i wont hehe

edit: wtf man i just googled it and found the answer in 10 seconds.

Well, I didn't google it, because the rules on this server are different than everything else. Here you have to look in house for the answer, like the wiki, but the wiki didn't have it. It's not game breaking and it doesn't really matter, I was just curious. This forum is little-used and I didn't think anyone would mind the traffic. Blow me.

[SamwiseRed]

are you saying this is a custom server that just makes shit up?

[Captain Faceplant]

Are you just talking to hear yourself talk? That's a rhetorical question; I can see how you got so many posts. Even in this short thread you haven't said a single useful thing.

The other great thing about this thread is that now, if someone finds it, they won't get a useful answer or even a link to a useful answer-- they'll just just some jackoff upping his post count. Well done, sir.

You can give 2 weapons to your pet at level 1 I'm fairly sure, but he won't use the offhand wep.

I think Sam is in the right ballpark, my necro pet I'm sure was dual wielding usefully at 24. You need to be careful of the 50% dps rule if solo though, don't want to give Jebober the tools to out damage you [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Also for necro pets, you can STOP giving them 2 weapons at 44, they naturally dual wield from then on [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

What level is your mage? My bet is on 24 for the skill, but post if you're finding they dual wield earlier.

You can see the dual wield results in the window output - so you can tell when it kicks in.
