So at 34, i'm lucky and get a pet that hits for 34 (meaning it is a "max pet").

Giving it any of the weapons I can summon won't make it any better as technically i'd need a 18 damage or higher weapon...unless I use some gnoll hide lariat or something to proc.

So another quick question, does givign it two gnoll hide lariats work better, or just give it one?
AFAIK two would be better, since it means you get more procs. That is how it works with dual wield classes like warriors. I am not an expert on summoned pets, so I couldn't say for sure if there is some special rule regarding proc rates when dual wielding on pets. The only exception I know is animal pets like the Shaman wolf cannot equip weapons at all. But that doesn't apply to Mages, except for maybe the Monster Summoning line of spells? I don't really know how those work.

But obviously giving your pet 2x lariats each time means you are going through your lariats 2x faster, so at that point it becomes a logistics question in terms of bag space, money spent, time acquiring more, etc.
