Yeah they are particulary shafted here on p99, there is a hate group getting em nerfed.
They are defenitly alot weaker than what they were on live.

In 99 the pets were much tougher. More defense ? i don't know but i could never do here what i did in 99, not even with the epic pet. Compared to normal pets in 99.

Still a fun class, just a bit sad the staff here is hating on them and sucking on chanters :)

Mob attack/defence values seem very different here to classic live. I guess they are best guest numbers, but they seem balanced around better gear (so making pets poorer).
