Necro Spell Question

Dalayan Beginner
I had just dinged 20 earlier, and collected my spells in Newport Sewers. I found two of my spells almost identical. In fact, besides the duration, they are statistically.

Shadow Vortex
Shadow Creep

Is there something I'm missing about these spells?
 
In the target block it says that the targets are all so I dont think that it affects his pet. It simply looks like the shadow creep just has a longer duration.
 
Based solely on the client spell file, I can't seem to find much of a difference besides the duration (as noted), the fact that SKs get the spells 10 levels apart, and that the recourse for Shadow Vortex has the AC increase in slot 7 while the recourse for Shadow Creep has the AC increase in slot 1.

This might only mean that the difference might be something that I cannot see in the spell file. For example, if the recourse goes to your pet instead of you, I'm not sure if that would be listed (doesn't look like it). The recourses themselves don't mention a pet, but I have little experience with recourses and their targets.

You could determine that theory fairly easily with a quick test. Testing is far superior to relying on the spell file!
 
/pet report health tells you what buffs are currently on your pet. You will see recourse buffs listed there as well.
 
not if you like aggro kiting, spells of this type draw a ton of aggro, allowing your pet to run behind the mob and beat on it while you run away.
