question about companion health

Dalayan Beginner
on the sodwiki it says that companion health lvl 1 addes 5 hp, lvl 2 adds 10hp, and so on......
i was wanting to know if this is true because if it is, it seems as if companion health really doesnt do a lot for you unless you have a bunch of items with it. im mainly curious because i was trying to decide if i should be using book of spectral monters or a binding orb of the dead for my necro.

thank ya's

I thought it was 3% of pet's base hp each rank or at least it used to be. I might be wrong (as usually), though.

It's definately not +5hp, +10hp, etc.
 
You only need a comp health/str item equipped when zoning or summoning your pet to grant it the focus effect, so you can use both :p
 
And only the highest rank takes effect, they don't stack. You can give your pet armor if you want to directly add hp/stats to it. NPCs don't benefit from stamina, though.
 
on another note, there seems to be an overwhelming excess of raid dropped companion strength 6 and 7 gear but a void when it comes to companion health gear. in fact the only good companion health items i can think of are the manis wand, the boots from pot and the mantle from everchill.

How about AC? Such as buying a pet a full suit of platemail armor?

Yea it adds ac.
I equip my pet with plate if I see any drop, but I don't buy it though ;)
 
awesome, thanks so much for the info. that makes sense that you only need to wear the item while summoning a pet. really cool, now i know that i can get some new gear :p
