I'd say refer back to Safiras' post on the three pets^
Personally, I've used all of them (though not Mari all that much yet, and can say without a doubt, Sam makes you pretty squishy compared to the others, in elites with big pulls of hard hitting enemies flooding in on you, would you rather instantly kill 1-4 out of 20 or so, and then promptly die because you're stats aren't good enough to survive/kill fast enough? Or, would you rather, have great stats, keep your party with a healthy buff (which keeps them alive and killing), plus Mari's passive has a banish at lvl 40 I believe, so you have a (small) chance of insta-killing with him too
