To add insult to injury, the pets on this server don't seem to cast their spells as much as on live. I remember my earth pet on live would keep casting the damn root so often I would even get frustrated that it wasn't actually attacking! (I remember my earth pet literally getting a mob down to 5% health and then dying because it chain casted root instead of finishing him off). So without even pet's root being cast often enough, there is no way to split mobs using the pet's CC. And now root nets arent rechargeable I hear??

All this talk of a mage's inability to solo past 55 efficiently makes me want to re-roll into enchanter....ughhh
Unless it's been changed on blue, I think that was what mage pullers did in Chardok AoE groups to clear aggro after before someone with DA would heal them & transfer aggro to group

Will have to check self COtHing but if a mob still has aggro on your pet, aggro will transfer to you no matter how many times you CoTH yourself...

Will have to parse my logs again but I think pets (at least air & water) do cast their innate ability every tick like they did on live
