    What I usually do with a walker is keep Icicle (max) Roar (leave at 2) and Tough (max), and add Threaten (max). Threaten gives a 15 second decreased physical attack debuff to its target (30 second cooldown) which alternated with Tough gives 45 seconds of reduced damage taken out of about 60. Some prefer adding another bash.

    Mmm, this 45 sec debuff will be great ! Threaten should maxed ? And what's about roar ?Maybe change this for other skill if it's not needed.

    Roar's use is to reset aggro, so can be used for grabbing aggro fast, but shouldn't be used in the middle of a boss fight because it wipes out all accumulated aggro. In the event you want to replace it, a bash (bash itself is probably wisest) for better aggro maintaining and DPS, or boost for better survivability are probably best (boost gives a percentage self-heal to the pet.)

    @MayFly : I believe Boost isnt really useful , even when maxed on a high HP pet. i think its better to depend on ur own Heals (thus magic power).

    @Panna_M : Threaten should be maxed along with tough if u plan to stick with the glacial. If u plan to get a herc later , threaten should be lvled up to lvl 2-3 , higher wont worth it.

    Maybe so, but a friend has boost on her walker, and used it to keep it alive while helping heal my herc on Gaurnob.

    @Mayfly : when it comes to healing another pet and keeping ur own alive then yes boost may come in handy
