I want to replace the pounce skill on my herc, What replacement skill will be better: Roar, Flesh Ream, or Bash?

Also, the forget scrolls says they help a pet forget a move that they mastered, does this mean my herc can only forget pounce when I raise it to level 5?

    I personally find bash to be my favorite skill. I don't really care for flesh ream unless I am using it to damage another player. xD I don't really have any comments about roar.

    As for the forget scroll, it'll work on removing any skill you like no matter what level it is.

    Ok, thanks. I'll just go with bash for now.

    It's no contest. Only one to consider is Bash.

    Pounce doesn't go above level 2 anyway.

    Bash is pretty good for keeping aggro, and pretty good damage. It's probably your best option.

    Roar is a BAD IDEA as your only aggro skill. It's good for stealing aggro immediately from an add (but pounce is better) it's no good at all for holding aggro continuously.

    Flesh ream just isn't as much use as bash, it cycles too slowly.

    Once I realize why I'm getting aggro: the whole squad is slowed down because of it. You're better off with no aggro skill than spamming Roar when in a squad.

    Higher levels have you mostly doing [?] mobs where you lose dps if you use Ream. Not to mention it has to go the whole cycle for you to gain dps. Ream is practically only good for PvP, and Herc is not.
