Hey Delta, lets see, I play Ryoko the Mistress of Aramon.
As in response to your question, I started noticing my pets cast lvl fours when I reached level 25. Honestly, after our little duel, I was greatly discouraged into continue playing this Class.

Your pets do rediculous ammounts of damage. I'd like to know what your pets were and are hitting for between levels. I have no posts of battles other then the ones I've complained about on the forums. But I do remember what my pets hit for at certain levels/titles. The same as they do now, its actually quite embarrassing to say for under 20dmg. I do recall being level 22-25, if I wasn't able to heal myself, I would seriously not be able to level.

During those levels my pets would seriously not hit at all, even on lower level mobs, and being a cleric I hit for under 20's as well. 24dmg with a stormblade, about 30 dmg on a screaming skull.

(the ancient dracolich) My best pet now hit them for Teens, honestly, compared to no damage, teens are a lot better then nothing. The animate does have a lot of cool spells though, but yea, like you said. Whats the point of casting if you only can cast it a few times. He bites for low 20s and doesn't gain hp. Ok, they slightly get stunned and he doesn't get Hp back to cast more. But like I said, he's my pride and joy this pet.

Look, since you don't seem to get it, I'll explain it to you again.

Everything changed with the new combat system. Combat now relies a lot more on your level vs. your enemy's level. Druid / Gradius pets are dynamic, meaning they were updated in strength and ability when the code switched to the new combat system. Aramon pets are static, meaning they weren't updated to the new system.

Your comments about the usefulness of Aramon pets are wildly off-base. You were fully aware they were bugged, yet you are posting a review of them without ever experiencing the way Aramon pets should be.

I put in a partial fix: Aramon pets are now partially dynamic in regards to level. This should mean they don't experience high damage reduction when fighting monsters higher level than themselves. I would suggest trying out your new pets and having a conversation with me about their strength before posting about them again.
