a ghoul is INVULNERABLE
 

IIRC, it's because my pet doesn't have magical weapons and my shield would also have to be a magic item.

If I am indeed remembering correctly, what is the least expensive means of getting your pet magical weapons.

Of course I could be totally wrong about this lol

Should be able to find a few solutions in this thread for cheap/low level magic weapons.

Lightstones?

Mages get summon dagger at lvl 1. I think those work....can't be 100% certain though.

If you are a Necro, then buying something is your only route....

Yep summoned weaps work so if you're a mage summon your own- if you're a necro, bug a mage :D

I may bug a mage. Haha thanks guys. And thanks for the link to the other post :)

@Muggens, I harvested two Lightstones tonight to try this out. I'll let you know if it works

The Lightstones did work (just not with kick or bash)! They also appear as bags in his hands lol

Aye nice :)

This must have something to do with pet level, because I've been soloing ghouls from 18-21 on my Necro and the pet hasn't had any trouble doing damage with rusty weapons.
