Does it, though? I mean, Fluffy's amazing on paper, but what does having the epic pet give a mage that "elevates them" to a new level? Perhaps I'm ignorant (by listening to disgruntled mages... which is why I'm asking), but I was under the impression that GV:Water is more DPS due to backstab, and Kunark+ mobs completely outstrip ALL mage pets in power level to the point that the epic really only allows you to farm pp camps better. If that's the case, I certainly wouldn't call it elevating.

Honest question from someone who would work to get their epic pet regardless of the answer... because...
