Necro Pet or Mage Pet?

[VincentVolaju]

Which class has the stronger pet? I know Mages got the diff kinds with different abilities like root, dmg shield etc. But in general when it comes to soloing, or even grouping as a Pet class, which pet generally puts out more DPS then the other?

Im gona give Mage or Necro a shot, so just trying to figure out which Id like better. Im assuming Necro focus's on dots, and Mage is more nukes, which means group wise, Mage would prob be taken before a Necro would, ya? But the opposite for soloing?

Also, High Elf for Mage, Iksar for Necro?
