hey guys, can you just take a look at my new pets??
i've got this new pet the "regal vampire" In comparison to my last set of pets, they could hit mobs lower then me(obviously) but now with my new pet this one in particular has yet to hit ANYTHING (literally) once...i've also had this other pet called a decaying lich, no complaints about him so far, only used it to duel juju, so i'm not too sure what he can or can't do...please look into it and tell me on mud? thanks!!

my last pet is an abyssal ghoul. lucky for me, this one can actually hit a mob that i needle. Although his max hit so far was 15 and it ranges from 8..seriously my last levels pets hit min for avg 15. i heard aramon clerics were nerfed, but this is beyond rediculous..

Claiming things were nerfed is really annoying.

Most likely, nobody has played an Aramon cleric at your level range since the changes to combat, so nobody noticed how their pets aren't set up for the new combat system.

How old is your source of information? You "heard" when? 4 years ago? LOL

Settle down. This game is in BETA. Things aren't changed without communication to the game community. It'd be counterproductive otherwise.

ok, i overreacted on my part. i apologize.. but on a serious note, my pets have gotten weaker then my previous pets. there are mobs WAYYY lower level then me that i fought before level 22 with my new pets and they at least hit the mobs constantly at 21 and for an avg of mid teens. now i have pets that hit lower then that and some that literally don't hit at all.

these mobs are the same ones that i have fought before..thanks for your time!@

Why did Aramon pets get weaker?
On a scale how do pets measure up?
1) Druids
2) Gradius
3) Bard
4) Aramon

Do the pets have attackpower and armor pts? Is their attackpower related to the conjurers' str?

It looks like a conjure's stats are independent of their conjurer. I think the strength of your conjure is random as well, but if it's been a constant stream of crappy conjures, it might be more than just bad luck?

Bard, Druid, and Gradius pets are dynamic - this means their stats are generated by the mud on-the-fly.

Aramon pets are static - this means each one was created and saved to some #.



To prepare dynamic pets for the new combat system, you modify the pet table. To prepare static pets for the new combat system, you've got to modify all 30 mobs. Someone will look into this soon, hopefully!

When you guys find the time to overhaul pets i'd love to see additional uses for them added in. Druids summoning flying pets they can ride or Bards summoning pets that can steal and backstab. Aramon pets who eat dead bodies to regain HP or hypnotize enemies. Even things like summoning pets who can scout or identify and using their abilities.

Warlocks who summon demonic familiars and drain their hp to cast their spells.

All cool stuff.

I currently have a 28 druid and have had a 28 Aramon (with their dracolich/beholder/dreadlord) in the past.

My personal opinion is that the static Aramon pets were far and away consistently better than the druid pets and unless pets were changed recently, and I don't think they were, they still are.

It will all be flipped upside down...etc once everything gets sorted out though.
