Pet Weapons and Secret Pet Weapons?

[Daldaen]

Keep in mind... A weighted axe (45 DMG / 150 Delay) isn't equipped by pets on this server. It is a BUG and should be equipable by pets until Luclin.

Pets only will change their damage if the weapon's damage x 2 is more than the pets innate max hit.

So Baton of Faith is a cheap 30 DMG weapon which changes pets max damage to 60. At low levels this is good.

But at higher levels the only weapons worth giving pets are procing weapons.

I noticed my chanter giving his pet http://wiki.project1999.com/Adamantite_Band the other day in the crypt... Pretty clever, upon charm break it has -20MR already beside any tash debuff.

Rusty spiked shoulder pads give another -10

Steel hilted flint dagger

being able to loot your items back from charmed pets has opened up a lot of possibilities.

its important to remember that where there are duplicate slots (rings, ears, bracers) the pet will only other equipping one of them. so don't bother giving it two of those adamantite bands, it will only get the benefit from one of them.

My typical pet set consists of a steel hilted flint dagger, two sarnak liberators, an adamantite band, rusty spiked shoulderpads, and a tola robe. (CoF haste at a fraction of the price)

having an extra liberator is nice when you don't have something level 50 to charm that can proc the dagger. the liberator also does 80dmg and has a VERY low proc level requirement so it will work on pretty much everything you chose.

some other interesting things you can chose:

Incandascent Wand - Enchanter AE stun. procs at 20. Lasts a solid 6 seconds. This may feel dangerous due to the stun on breaks but with your buffs and gear you are going to pretty much always resist it.

Dawnfire, Morningstar of Light - Great alternative to the steel hilted flint dagger if you are in an undead area. procs earlier so you do not need to have a 50 pet, not lore, and you don't have to worry about it backfiring since its undead only. earlier proc than the staff of undead legions as well with the disadvantage of being very expensive.

that'd be a sad day if you got emergency afk, trained by a bunch of stuff, etc. and your pet died with all those toys heh.

Will a tome of the eternal function as a torch by allowing the charmed pet to DW, while also giving the mob -10 MR?
