What's mage pet dps like?
Both the 60 water pet and epic. I assume a good monk/rogue is a lot more?

Not sure how it is on trash mobs but the epic pet is pretty close in dps to an epic/sos monk on raid mobs. Not even close to a rogue with a solid velious offhand tho.

Epic pet is ridiculous on trash and worse on higher level mobs such as Vindi and such.
But, even a 60 water pet will show on a top 10 DPS meter on a Vindi fight from time to time. IF you compare 59 Air (Monk) to 60 Water (Rogue) pet while raiding, I would say over all the Air will out dps Water. The reason is simple. Position. If you....which doesn't happen a lot but if you have to take the time to position your water pet so it will backstab, then that is time wasted. Secondly, I do see 60 water backstab often, but I think the Kick has a better chance of landing (visual observation only) than a backstab. I don't know the CD for backstab, but I know kick has a chance to land every 6 seconds.

On our first Statue of Rallos Zek kill a Water pet was #2 on the parse. Because he was muzzled, 2 weapons with crap procs, Burnout and always positioned to backstab.
If you're corner tanking and don't have to push the water pet is solid.

Now that I think of it, even having a mage pet hit Velk is weak compared to an actual Monk or Rogue.
I tested this on live (PoP era). My epic pet was worthless compared to the 61 Air pet. The reason was simply the pet level. Pet level 49 vs a pet that was level 60 fighting the same level 62 mob. Epic had a hard time landing hits while the level Air pet landed hits often.

I parsed my water pet once on Vindi. Muzzle, BO4 and two velium daggers (crap 6 dmg proc). It wasn't bad, but worse than what the monks and rogues put out. Max hit is 68, and I was seeing it hit a lot in the 20s. MAYBE this is the bug I posted a long time ago about why mage pets were hitting trash in Icewell Keep (from the front) for only 14 dmg about 70% of the time. (pit trash, not guards)
