Thread: 3somes aren't worthless (cl data exposed?) LOOK!
Message Edited by Termis on 05-21-2005 11:27 PM
Nice! Thanks for the info.
One question.....Were you grouped with your pets or not?
Interesting, because my experience with 3 petshas been very different so far, though most of my testing has been against mobs in the CL78-82 range since those are the mobs I need the most help against (as CL 80 MCH).
What I found is that at first the 3 pets will out damage the one creature, sometimes able to get the creature down to half it's health.However, invariably one of my pets will get incapped, and after that it's just a matter of time before the other 2 go down. Possible three pets can fair well against lower level mobs, but I haven't found that they can stand up against the higher levels.

I have used 3 female narglatches extensively. One thing I haven't done is let them attack without my intervention since I will always be there to help them. They are great pets. I went to Dath yesterday evening witha friend and we were taming different creatures. In the process we ended up killing all kinds of creatures. He has 3 female narglatches too, so we paired up and put 6 on a creature. You can imagine they died pretty quick. It was complete and total gravy to watch. If you have a CH friend, it's worth it to go out in a group with 6 narglatches. I'm happy with 3 of them so far. I'm able to kill most things easily.
Man, it's posts like this that might keep me interested DISPITE THE CU ...the abovesounds like fun ...

one incaps because only one holds aggro..if the pets have a difference in damage the higher damage pet will hold the aggro..the other will remain untouched...
if the damage is equal than the aggro SHOULD alternate between pets, so they will take damage, but take turns getting hit
if you root/snare the target and take the aggro, then the pets sould remain relatively untouched, and effectively act as a "bleed"
But, see, therein lies the problem.I understand Termis to be saying thathis pets will win in combat without support from him.I'm notsaying that 3 pets are worthless - certainly they have value. They are, however, worthless as tanks. I have not found that I can successfully send my pets against higher level mobs (and I don't consider CL70 to be high level) - unless I do take aggro,of course.
A fundamental diffrencebetween pre and post CU is that before I needed my pets tokeep me alive - they tanked for me. Now, my pets need me tokeep them alive - I tank for them.
All tests are while grouped with my 3 female narglatch pets. I am CL80 – Master Rifleman, Master CH. My pets at the time of this test were Wrath CL 15, Fury CL 13 and Scorn CL 13. While I was grouped with the pets I did not assist them in anyway. I also did not use Embolden Pets for this test. I made a chat log of the combat text so actual damage delivered and taken by the pets could be examined. I’ve put the damage the pets delivered in BOLD text and the damage the pets received in ITALIC text. I have included just a small portion of each battle session to show the basic pattern of damage against that particular target. I was interested to see how the pet damage stats changed versus different CL levels and also different types of targets. And for the record….my 3 narglatch babies won every single battle without any help from me. A couple of times one of the girls was incapped but only after the target was less than 15% health and the remaining 2 girls finished them off every time. I will be taking them out soon to test against higher CL targets once the girls are full grown
Note that the pets got in more hits on targets that had a slower attack response time. For example the girls would get more than 1 hit a piece on the Kunga Warrior for every 1 hit he got in on them. But against the Huurtons and Voritors who struck faster they each got 1 hit a piece in for each hit delivered to them.

This was a CL 78 mission from the terms. Don’t know what the natural CL is for a Thune Herd Leader. In this battle Wrath took most of the hits and was incapped when the Thune was down to about 15% but the other 2 girls finished him off.

Bottom line is I think these little girls do just AWESOME. They are aggressive and fast and do consistent damage with very few misses. Regen is fast and for the most part follow commands very well. They have a few problems around houses where they get stuck from time to time but not so much in open areas. I think when all 3 are full grown they will definitely be able to handle a CL80 target.
