Pet classes suck on this server

Server not classic at all

the fact that an epic reward mage pet gets 1 shotted by a level 39 bard spell makes them completely useless on the red server

don't recall seeing 0 magician mains on live during this era

just saying

You can't increase pet attack speed by giving them daggers or other low delay weapons here either.

this got nerfed on live shortly before kunark launch iirc

sad day

On live charming pets never happened . Also the Mage epic pet had an insane amount of mr . It resisted 90% of all cc spells you threw at it

[Plackers]

The problem here is most of the devs coding etc goes on hard proof and data unless it's Lord Vyemm.. Saying your pet resisted 80% doesn't mean much as there is no exact proof.

Resist magic should make pets nearly immune to cc and break in one tick

It is documented that npcs had lower stats but received for gains from them

Do some tests and post some data

The mage epic pet resists and move speed is a well known issue and something I thought would be a quick fix but maybe not

This is why I don't play sickpuppy . It breaks my heart to not play a class that I love just because they can't get the pet even semi correct

Server not very classic so yeah pet fixes should happen. Obviously pets should never be able to zone though.

Yea, that's the thing - it's a modernized version of classic to better suit 30 year olds instead of 13 year olds (queued /tell's, higher resolutions, keep bard selos root break fixed at vanilla launch, item links from vanilla launch, and so on).

Zoning pets I could see drama causing and a bit of OP, but at the minimum, I believe they should take away the charm poofing. I'd love to play a mage again, but just like everyone else thinking the same, why would we? Spend 50% of your mana and 5 minutes summoning a pet, buffing it, giving it weps, to have it poof, effortlessly, by a bard or chanter.

Yea every class has their "oh shit they're gonna kill me" class, but it shouldn't be a click poof like this. This should be patched asap so we can finally let mages have a chance on this server without being epic.
