1. What is the difference between L1, 2, and 3


2. When activated, does it redirect attacks or does it redirect damage


3. 
   
   If it redirects attacks, then pet armor and CL dictates the damage inflicted?


4. 
   
   If it redirects damage, then does it take into account the players CL, armor, innate defenses, etc?


5. 
   
   If the pet is not in aggro status with the enemy, but then sustains damage from SS, does it make the pet go aggro?

Thank you

Very anectodal but while training l1, the creature was allowed to hit me and was doing 90 dmg, then I triggered the ability which at l1 was 25 sec and it was reducing it to 73, one thing I noticed you can reapply the ability without having to wait for it to end, so you can set a macro for it to stay on at 20 second intervals thus it is always on, also as long as the icon was there it was reducing dmg to me. I have not trained l2 yet will be doing so very soon and then l3. I see this as a great special, but again my using it was very anectodal.

Did you notice how much damage your pet was suffering?

uhh no, sorry will take better notes. I should have been thinking.

Right. Obviously you don't know, so I guess my post is directed at someone more informed. Thanks for caring though.

I try to keep on top of these things as much as humanly possible. So when I say I havent seen any testing posted, I mean it hasnt been posted since the system went live. Although I have been wrong before.

This is actually one of the next 2on my list of abilities to throughly test.

Also add this. Are 2 pets better than 1, as in they both take some ofthe damage directed to you? And if it works, does it worklike 1+1=2 (2 is actually better than 1)or (1+1)/2=1 (you take the same ammountdamage as if you had 1 out)

I can confirm that L1, L2, and L3 each have different durations (15, 25, 45 seconds i think)
