Howdy everybody. I tried to search through the forums before making this post. All I could find was apparently mage pet wrecks the other pets in duels. That is not the topic of this post.
I was talking to a beast about his pet, because he suggested I try soloing goblins in ToE (I think it might of been a joke). I am a mage. My pet is getting wrecked pretty hard by the goblins. I can kill scouts, soldiers, and shamans. I have been trying all manner of combinations and a few questions came to mind.
Do Beast pets have a higher base hp?
I.E. what is the base hp (no companion focus or AAs) of a level 63 spell beast pet
What is the base hp (same as above) of a level 63 mage pet, maybe air or water those should be in the middle
What is the base hp of a Relic Pet?
How much hp does the mage AA elemental enhancement add?
What is the base hp of runic mage/bst pets? (as above)
Additionally, I went into the wiki and just looked at base pet heals.
Bst level 63 heal is 1475 pts, 3 second cast time, 10 seconds cool down
Mage level 63 heal is 1215 pts, 3 second cast time, 20 second cool downs
Could this be the cause of our differences with success? His pet heal is 21% stronger (at the base, with AAs/Crits probably much more stronger) and he is able to cast it twice as much. So, within a 30-40 second fight which most of mine last because of rain/runic 1. In theory if his dps was similarly burst, he stilll heals 2.42x or3.63x more than me. I would hope his dps is less than mine, at which point his greater healing ability becomes even more useful (Assuming pet is tanking, or some shared form of tanking. I don't know how bst solo hard mobs)
The information I do not have, and could not find on wiki is about their relative mitigation. So any information about that would be very useful. An additional thought is maybe it is armor. But he does not have pet armor tome done, whereas I do.
If you wanted to know why I was trying the goblins, mainly to farm the shields. They are pretty sweet.
