Hammerjaw Need Buff

[kingoburgo]

Hammerjaw is one of 2 arcane pets that are so desired to have.

Being arcane and incredibly expensive pet, it doesn't provide any amazing bonuses and have poor damage (not on stat page). I tested it on mobs in elite and in daily token quests - malison that has multi-target attack kills faster single target than hammerjaw with its 136dmg. When there are a lot of mobs - malison is even more better. Testing party buff it not resulting in faster elite farms.
It's party spell is comparable with deary, how can it be fair? When next cap comes glacian and hammerjaw +10/+15 to stats buffs will be nothing special.

Is it intended to be just cute sharky used as decoration? Why malison is so much better?

I wholehearedly agree. Arcane Class pets should not be overpowered by Legendary class pets such as Malison. Arcane pets NEED to have Area effect damage and not single target damage to at least be competitive.

Sort of unrelated but I'm assuming eventually the str, dex, and int bonuses on pets will be given percentages instead of just +10, +20, etc.

Because every cap that passes by, the less help most pets are. Imagine the tiny difference those stats will make at lv 36. People would just stop buying the more expensive pets because their benefits are minimized. The only pets that keep their relevance are those with the damage percentage bonuses
