Enc Animation Question

wiki has no information about this, either of these topics, thus I created this thread.

Zipity linked the wiki Pet Guide earlier in the thread which has this little tidbit:

A pet's attack delay is not affected by the delay on a given weapon. However, weapon slot choice is determined by delay (i.e. lower delay item will replace one with a higher delay).

Hopefully that answers your question about Attack Delay for pets?

Negative, not sure how you made that non-sequitor. Higher level summoned pets (all classes) refuse 2h weapons outright at a certain point, in favor of using dual wield. The 2h tactic remains effective for charming, as many NPCs innately do NOT dual wield, and thus accept the 2hander, then get forced into dual wield with the offhand item (torch, shield, mandolin etc.). If that doesn't prevent it, afaik all 2h in game are Primary only, which would also prevent it.

My enchanter went from 1-55 solo in a few months playing very casually using a lot of the techniques and knowledge in Tecmos videos. I don't understand why you would discount his expertise, or a lot of the other information you seem to have rejected in this thread.

Had I leveled my enchanter using animations, it would have been agonizingly slow by comparison to charm. Lugging around armor and shields and 2handers for my agonizingly slow animations as well? Unimaginable.
