Hero of the North panther - low dps

kaiserschmarrn

Please buff the Panther we got back then. It's such a good looking companion and I would like to use it once in a while.

The power creep has not been kind to the early companions, here's a rough dps comparison I did on the preview shard yesterday:

Death Scorp: 2.28k
Cambion: 1.6k
Erinye: 0.475k
Theurge: 2.4k
Direwolf: 1.5k
Panther: 0.45k
Merc: 1.8k
Deva: 1.1k
Sellsword 1.5k

For a striker pet and given the original cost of the Hero of the North pack it would be really nice if the panther was brought in line with the better striker companions. It would not even be much work, just a quick fix to the attack damage.

Yep. It's been pretty much worthless since open beta.

.....and everyone basically gave up begging for an adjustment since it hasn't been touched since open beta.
They already got the money for it and it can't be upgraded so no one is going to spend more zen on it, so it's basically a trash item everyone got suckered into thinking they got a purple companion.
