I know in the old days when I was out hunting mountain squills and I thought, WOW, creature handlers are truly leet. Pets used to be good as tanks but since you can easily get 90% comp and a +3000 buff, pets are pretty useless. Why make them or use them @ all? Why? It's fun but it's our profession not a hobby-when-tired-of-making-tissueruns. Btw is there a combat rebalance coming and in that case when?

yes. Right now it's scheduled for Publish 11. Publish 9 is this Tuesdau and publishes are roughly one month apart.

Pets are unlikely to change much with the balance, but if the combat professions, buffs and armor get hit as hard, they might become more popular once again. Likely they will be the only thing left intact.
Unfortunately until we get some solid information, we cannot say for certain what is going to happen.

I think the combat rebalance is actually scheduled between publishes 9 and 10. 11 is the GCW update and I believe is an entirely different issue. Anyone with further information on this topic please let me know.

The combat balance is going to be huge. It will start in Publish 10 and the indications from TH and elsewhere are that it will carry over into 11.
