Shared Pet Stats and Buffs Clarified

Written by Feldon on . Posted in Grouping, Itemization

Summoners, Enchanters, and Shamans have been curious at exactly how Shared Pet Stats work. Fortunately some details have been provided by Maevianiu on the EQ2 Forums:

NOTE: Any buffs that affect a group/raid do not transfer from the owner to the pet (that would be doubling up) but single target ones that grant the stats below should go to both the owner and the pet when cast on the owner.

The following stats are copied from the owner to the pet:

Attributes, potency, ability mod, crit bonus (pvp and pve), crit chance, toughness, doublecast chance (pve and pvp), ability casting speed, Ability Recovery Speed, Ability Reuse Speed, Spell Reuse Speed.

Also, when testing with possessing a pet, be sure to cast some other buff on the pet as well to force the pet’s stats to get resent to your client. So cast the buff on the owner that you want to test, and some other mitigation buff or something like that on the pet to force the pet’s stats to update.

If you find any of these working kinda wonky post about it on the forums and we can look into it when we get a chance.

Trackback from your site.

    @Hiath
    Those do not transfer. They have to be casted either individually on the pet or have to be group buffs.

    Group buffs do effect the pet, they just don’t get shared from you because the pet is already getting it, or the pet would get double group buffs.

    This is old news, what we want to hear is that pets share HP’s, Critical mitigation and resists..

    The lack of that makes it close to impossible to keep pets up during fights with more than 1 AoE in it..
