Is it worth upgrading Iouno Stone to level 30?
My Iouno is level 30 and all slots are unlocked and he doesn't do any damage so I don't quite see the purpose to upgreading, am I right?
Thanks

Upgrading Augment Companions provides with bonus stats ratings which is very good, some might not like it for the cost wise but for some people who are min/max pve players it makes a whole difference and it is nice to have
Can you recommend me what correct gear goes in there? Thanks
Moreover Ryonas which bonus stats are you talking about? I don't see in the info of the Iouno that it says something about giving a special bonus at level 30 so I guess only the gear in this type companion makes a difference.
If the last gear slot is actually unlocked (not a bug) so I don't see any reason to updating it to level 30.
Companion's max rank (Quality) isn't what unlocks the gear and runestone slots. What unlocks them is their actual level that they are by gaining experience and being ranked up. The third runestone slot unlocks when they reach rank 15 and the third equipment slot unlocks when they reach rank 25. The final power of a companion, unless specifically stated otherwise, unlocks when they reach rank 30. Again, these do not unlock simply by being a specific quality. They unlock when the companion has reached that rank by gaining experience and being ranked by pressing the button to rank them up.

First with your equipment slot issues.
Is the pet rank 25?
Are you using an Icon not a Symbol?
Second the bonus stats are the stats from the gear that you equip it with. It's basically the same as your character wearing those items, you just don't get a gearscore increase from them. Ioun Stones and other augment pets will never ever attack or perform any other action. They augment your character. This is much better as it means the horrible companion AI isn't involved. It is also better because the slow attack rate of pets means that even in the best gear their dps is pretty much meaningless.
Hope this helps.
A bit? I get over 2K stats with my ioun stone.

I'd say leave it at rank 25 and don't waste the 700k+ AD on upgrading to level 30.

Improved active bonus ?
I forget what it is, but it's a % more of the stones base stats. I found it to be well worth it on my SW.
No it's it's base stats.
On previous discussion people seemed to find it not worth it. I think in generally there is so much you can do with your AD that you should prioritise first. Basically in the end I think the mass amount of people shouldn't bother.
Gah, I was hoping you wouldn't ask.. ummm

For ion stone of allure that is 4% bonus stat rating and active bonus upgrade << I got an ion stone rank 25 and there is a button called upgrade quality that mentions what you will get when upgrading the stone to epic quality>>
For cat 10% bonus stat rating and active bonus from 100 deflect to 200 deflect << I got a cat epic quality on my cleric when i get home i can post its screenshot if needed >>
ion stone of might << i did not own it before >> so if any one has it please post concerning it
It's actually +165, not a game-changer, but it is at least useful. I don't really find the active bonus from the allure to make a significant difference - the radiance one works better for me.
for stone and it provides bonus stat rating
i did not level it since it is on my alt not the main character but i can still view what epic ion stone would have
here is the screenshot
I absolutely never make similar mistakes, so shame on you
If you think it is worthy, go for it, but I personally think there are far better ways to spend that amount of ADs.
