My Pet Mage II

Hello everyone.

First of all, i know not many spec EM. I decided to try it out because of fun and because of the new pet changes. And i must say i am surprised how well i was doing.
Currently i'm level 29, specced something like 25 EM and 13 Light. Mainly because i don't like mana. I know it's great, but i don't like it.

I the early levels, the Underhill Friend is seriously a very good pet. The Companion may get resisted a lot but the Friend will chew on yellows and even oranges reliably well before you have to start dd-ing.

After level 20, the Compatriot is my favorite pet of choice. With the EM buffs and the (lower tier) heals, it holds off realiably well up to 4 yellows. And it doesnt even take forever, since it procs the DD quite often (like a normal player weapon proc) and i also have the (half-spec) light dd to help.

All in all, i'm really enjoying the Enchantments line as a pve alternative to the point-and-click mentality of the other two spec lines and especially now since our pets got a little more "personality" than they had untill now.

Cheers!

IMO at higher levels EM spec requires an ML9 pet... I know a couple of people (Eblifad) who run EM in PvE, and while it is effective with the highest tier heal proc it is overall not as time efficient as the Focus Shield/PBAE method.

50 EM and 20 mana ML6 RR3 on tint cluster

I have few problems at all doing my pve, and in the words of a charming ment friend "With a bot and sally I at least equal to what you can pull off by yourself for this kind of killing" while killing taurs for SoM and Malice scrolls. Of course there are some things I can't solo till I get these last 4 ml7 steps done so I can get all the mlxp I need for ML9.

For my end spec i was thinking something along the lines of:
40 EM, 36 Light... plus the ML9 thingy. That would sound like nice spec for
my taste.
