Pet summoning classes: Question on pet levels

[Whirled]

Ok, I didnt get to do lots of tests but so far:

The goof sword cons high green ( light blue) TO A LV 60.
Its max hits are in upper 20s -- depending the lvl of attacking monster
It winks out when monster hits it or when monster dies. I had to stand there like a warrior so it didn't kill it every time. Also, it DOES taunt monster * no way to turn that off* options greyed out in pet window

..... more to come when I get more free time.

TL;DR version: Spell sucks
