I agree with the 50% hate. This would have made my leveling a huge agony as a necro. I'm lvl 18 and wearing the same plain cloth gear I looted at level 3 and I'm not expecting anything else for a very long time. I cant afford to cast more than darkness and a dot per mob solo unless I want huge down time. I'd say my pet is doing 50-70% of the damage.

I have never afk killed a thing and I think this is unjust for the rest of us. If you could please reduce the percentage of damage you have to contribute solo it would at least be a bit more reasonable.

Why not Live's rule of having to do at least some damage to the mob yourself or you get a massive penalty?

well, it's the age old story, the few ruin it for the many. I guess we'll just have to 'deal' with it (not that those classes who can't solo will mind :P).

It's just a shame for those newbie pet classes starting out, and those who can only play a few hours here and there and want to solo a bit.

Druid supremacy!

Why not just require the pet owner to do at least 1 point of damage to get exp? (or reduce it by 99% if no damage done).

We will discuss the 1 point of damage option and have a decision for next patch

Thank you very much Rogean.

Oh! My Tiger warder will be so happy! I'll delete my Berserker and stick with my Beastlord for now!

Thanks Rogean <3 <3 <3 heart <3

Thanks for listening, even if you lower it to say 10 or 20% it'll be better than nothing, especially for the casuals/new players :)

Doesn't sound like a very good idea. Kinda eliminates the single most useful tactic a necro has, fear-kiting. And on top of that, it's coupled with a fix that finally has our pets doing a lot more damage with DW.

Definitely need to look into another way to accomplish this. Even with 2-3 dots and 40-50% of our mana on a mob, a dual-weilding pet's gonna content for 50% every time. It's a case of all the work, half the xp.
