So basically my question is which one you think is the best pet choice for TR?
I post a poll with some choices.. except the cat cuz it's basically stone of allure with the bad side of belt slot and double the price of the stone.Please after voting post your arguments.

Edit: PVE
Do keep ever present in your thoughts, my friend, that an illusion can kill you if you believe in it.
And the real thing can kill you whether you believe in it or not.

    Stone of might
    Its gives stamina
    Dodging can give back stealth
    Being in stealth means harder to hit, more damage and more action points
    Has 3 offense slots which can make up for power lost towards permastealth builds
    Uses 2 rings and one belt which fall all the time while doing pve
    Scoundrel Trickster Rogue
    Leaving dead question marks everywhere

    Allure but only because might is from trade bars or ah then has to be ranked up at least once. Might is better overall but not from a cost benefit ratio.

    That's part of it. For might to be better you have to pay to upgrade it to blue as well as buy it it's self. Might however has a better active bonus and has 3 offensive slots rather than 2 and a defensive. It can if upgraded be better than allure. However because it starts as a green quality pet it means that it is far more expensive to do this. Usually people asking which one is best won't have the ad to upgrade might anywhere near soon, which means that allure is better from a cost benefit analysis. Now if cost isn't an issue Might is better.

    But at the end might will stay blue and allure will be purple? How this compares statwise?
    BTW I'm NOT arguing I'm genuinelly asking for your opinion :)

    Upgraded Stone of Might, hands down. It's the best augment for us. Just upgrade it to blue because what you want is to unlock the last slots for runes and gear for the extra stats they can give you. Upgrading augment pets from blue to purple is almost always a waste of AD's as the cost is too high for such a meager increase in stats. It's around 4% to 5% if I remember correctly.

    Go for Stone of Might if you have the AD's to upgrade it to blue, but if you're on budget then Stone of Allure will not disappoint. It's just that Stone of Might has more appropriate gear slots and rune slots for us.

    I see. Turns out fighting companions are completely useless then? I really like fey panthers you know :D I like more the standart panther but uh oh 200 bucks :D. Whats your oppinion on fighter companions? Are they worth anything in epic dungeons?

    Non-augment companions are a liability in an epic dungeon since you will be trying to not pull mobs at times and non-augment companions will hinder that. On top of that they won't dodge red, and they don't do much damage.

    This is true, however technically speaking, let's say we had all the AD in the world. Stone of Might is better with unlimited resources... Allure is a better option realistically.

    Radiance is only possible right now due to an exploit, wait to see how it falls out.

    The promotion is from charging Zen. The exploit is allowing people to acquire them even if they didn't participate in the promotion.

    The promotion has now run more than once, and I would tread very carefully around acquiring it by other means. The promotion itself quite a good deal though, for people who run a lot of alts and/or don't mind paying for the upgrade. The combination of all offense slots and rings+belt is versatile.

    There's 1 more pet and it's the best IMHO - thats Cat. That's support pet same as stone, so you get 2attack slot + 1 def slot + ring + belt + neck and cat gives you buff himself with recovery + crit chance + for active bonus 125dodge + less dmg when lay on the back (at blue, so at purple bonus will be better.
