Pets: The Forgotten and Overlooked

[Zuzeq]

The purpose of this one is to inform newer Assassins on some helpful pets that my be a bit less "Desirable" to your everyday Rogue that may just chase down the pet that grats you the highest amount of DeX. There are plenty of leet pets that are overlooked that can be used to wreck PvE. Those are as follows,


CLYDE (Overlooked): 10StR 30InT 7% Crit
Abilty: A Scream that has a chance to stun mobs/bosses
Passive Perk: Reduces mob movement speed -80%!
Pros: Stuns bosses. Grats you good crowd control while keeping you DmG high do to InT.
Cons: Lacks the DmG a DeX pet would grant (Not by much)

Kettle (Forgotten): 15StR 15DeX 15InT 10% DmG
Ability: Grants user/party 12% speed
Passive Perk: Hits 3 targets(nuff said)
Pros: Grats one of the highest DmG/speed bumps and base stats (2nd only to Mali)
Cons: None (unless you're looking for stun/crowd control)

McCraw (Forgotten): 15DeX 10% Crit 10%Dodge 7% Speed
Ability: Strong single target hit, can cause bleed and stun (bosses included)
Passive Perk: The single target blow can cause surrounding mob to bleed
Pros: High Crit, Dodge (that works), speed and can stun bosses
Cons: Grats low HP (can be a pain to equip in leet maps)

Orion (Overlooked): 20InT 10StR -2% incomming DmG +160 Health
Ability: Reduce mob hit chance/armor, buffs party +10%DmG for 6secs
Passive Perk: Hits 3 targets, reduces mobs DmG by 15% and chance to cause bleed.
Cons: Lacks the DmG a DeX would grant, but extra HP makes up for it a lil.

Wrathjaw (Forgotten): 20DeX 20InT +4 Health regen 10%DmG
Ability: AoE Explosion
Passive Perk: None (single target bite)
Cons: Ability doesn't take much DmG, but short cool down.
*Wrath garnts you insane DmG all the same, sleeper for sure*

Great post, very informational.

Kudos on pointing out Kettle. I see SOME rogues using it more recently. The stats look really good, close enough to Mali like you mentioned for base stat bumpage overall.

I use wrathjaw or kettle on bosses for the increased damage :)

I used to use Kettle exclusively for farming lower level maps for the increased speed - now I use Slag... I might have to dust off the old kitty :)

Wrathjaw and McCraw are in my rotation already.
