Spoiler - Pet Question For Higher Level Characters

Post by Zaku »

I just completed Act 1 Normal and I've done a couple of Telkine runs. I'm a Ranger (hunter/nature) with a Nymph and 2 wolves. Against the Minotaur boss and then Telkine, I don't have to do too much. I take out the traps and then make sure to take out the Life Leechers quickly, otherwise those 3 summons seem to rip the bosses down fairly quickly. My wolves are 8/15 and the Nymph is 1/XX. At what point in the game will they become trivial mana dumps?

Generally pets actually dont they seem to be the easiest way of winning the game when they are maxed out. However i don't know about wolves and nymphs becuase they arn't the tanks that are spirit kings and wisps and core dwellers etc. Still they will be useful throughout the WHOLE of normal no doubt. You will have work on Typhon though, they won't do all the the (i don't think).

Later on the core dweller will have trouble killing monsters but he is more of a tank than a guy who kills in your place so it depends what you expect from your pets. However, a dweller a liche king and an outsider (ether lord) will kill a lot of baddies but i wouldn't count on them in boss fights. (Just ternion attack him to death :laugh: )
