Pet HP's

this last patch was needed i agree the bug of runic 2 pets where crazy HP. But it seems when it was fixed it got alot worse. i myself am working on my runic 2 pet as we speak and the difference between the R2 and relic pet now kinda makes me feel that the hard work will not pay off. like i said i agree the the hp was to high but with our ability of crappy heals its hard enough to keep the pet pre-broken alive. they mitigate damage horribly even with their HP. im not asking for some boss pet but i would atleast like the pet i had before it was broken.
 
i agree with the constant nerfs to pets beastlord/mage runic 2 is starting to not even become an upgrade.
 
Do pets benefit from spellward? This would help with mage/necro pets a bit, but i am unsure of the other pet wielding classes.

But pet hp for r2 pets is pretty weak for the effort. Pet heals for all pet classes should definately be better and not so god awful and this would help alleviate some of the problem. Pets could also gain some more mitigation to damage in general instead of inflating health pools.

I am not a pet class though (Even though Meowmix>Destruction>Derpasaur), and my opinion on the topic may not be accurate
 
First off, "Runic 2s are not even upgrades anymore" is crazy, not well thought out and will make any staff member ignore the rest of your post

Second, the HP nerf this morning was unintentional. We found a bug with pet buffs, fixed it, and expected to up the HP to compensate for next patch. This morning we had to have an emergency patch on an unrelated issue and the pet buff fix went in without the compensation

Should be fixed by tonight or tomorrow morning.
 
not saying they are dumb just hard work with not as much reward with how they stand now. but im happy to hear this will be fixed and cant wait to see.
 
How much of a % gain is it from a relic pet to a runic pet, HP wise?

Also, would avoidance or resilience tomes effect our pets? If not, why? That would be an easy way that mages could increase their pets abilities as they advance. Further in that vein, are there any tomes that should in theory based off the elemental mastery?

Also, could another pet tome be implemented that would tie pet's hp to the casters hp? You'd have to do different ratios to make sure the gain is equal between Mage/Necros and Bst. That way if you get better gear, your pet will indirectly benefit, just as with the AC bonus from pet armor I.

I agree, in many ways it seems to be mitigation is where pets are falling weaker and a slight boost to that will increase pets durability. Also, how come my pet doesn't gain the bonus from when I wear crit healing items?
