After seeing so many different kinds of mounts it got me thinking on how many there were in the game, and with companions. It's one of neverwinter's unique characteristics, yet they do not make use of it at all.
Either balance bonding runestones so their effectiveness is equal on all active companions, or make some change to their abilities to make them all useful (the former idea is the easiest to be done.
Don't just make defenders immune to red, make other types atleast durable or smart enough to avoid it them too. Range companions will still be desired for their quicker engagement.
Soon half of NW population are going to be warlocks.

Pure -> Transcendent Plague Fire weapon enchantment giving 80damge/20 seconds for 500k+ AD is a joke.

I try out other junk. Slapped bonding on my repentant cultist I upgraded to 35 on my GF. It works, it's good enough, I'm enjoying it, end of story. I'm not going to slap a companion on for big numbers if it doesn't fit the theme.
I'd love to use the Dwarven Battlerager on my GF for solo content, but I haven't got the AD to upgrade him to epic atm. I've already spent millions upgrading Young Yeti, Wild Hunt Rider, Blink Dog, Shadow Demon, Lightfoot Thief, Air Archon and a few others I am forgetting. Also the price for upgrading companions (the reduction was welcome and nice but not enough) is another hindrance to thorough testing.
The most important thing in life is to be yourself. Unless you can be Batman. Always be Batman.
Its still way over the top honestly.
The cultist biggest drawback is that the buff actually doesnt apply.. so it has no active for you if you slot it.
make the bonding stones cap at 3 total .. and make them like twice as long of a buff.
Why? because sure, those who use QUICK hitting pets would still be better off.. but NOT so much better off that it is the only way to go, as people could choose any pet in the end and only be marginally less effective. Frankly unless someone shows me a better nearly as cheap, I will just use my blink dog.
I think this would fix everything in one total fell swoop. There would be no reason to do anything else.
I bring this topic up because i look through all those unique and awesome looking pets, some with really nifty debuffs or buffs for all types of builds.

I use an ambush drake on my DevOP, which also has a pretty fast attack and applies a debuff with its bite, and I love the thing, but they'd be terribly difficult to get because I think that event only ran once and the drake scrolls were never added to Simril gifts.
I use the Vicious Dire Wolf a lot because the interrupts and prones provide a lot of utility even though it's not as fast an attacker.
Sprites in theory should be good, and their daze would be an interesting addition but that's on a gawdawful long cooldown and therefore of no practical use.
