    Can't find the thread asking for it, but someone wanted the textfrom the pounce skill.


    Here it is:

    Pounce
    Maximum skill level 2
    Cooldown: 60s
    Have an 80% chance to stun enemy for 3 secs.
    Increase attack rate by (15% at level 1) (25% at level 2) for 15 secs if enemy is stunned.


    Allegedly it also increases attack rate even if the monster isn't stunned, but I've not run tests.

      Only if it lands.
      If the stun lands, even if the mob "resists", you still get the speed bonus. If the stun misses, than you get no bonus either.
      Too often we loose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown, BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap that mother#$@%#^! upside the head.

      I've gotten the speed bonus every time I've used it I think, though I don't check my pet after every time I hit it.

      The glass half-empty way to view it: It should go up to level 5! 15% at 1, 25% at 2, 35% at 3, 45% at 4, 55% at 5. Double damage if you max it out with Claw (155% * 130% = 201.5%). They nerfed veno pets!

      The glass half-full way to view it: It saves you money! It was supposd to be 5% at 1, 10% at 2, 15% at 3, 20% at 4, and 25% at 5. But they decided each increment was too small to be worth the cost to upgrade, so they knocked it down to just one upgrade to get the max effect.

      You pick which reason you want.

      Not all pet skills are max level 5.
      Most Rare Pet skills have 2~3 levels, actually.
      The pet self-heal Embrave? (sorry, Im not familiar with PW-INT pet skill names, 'cept Flesh Ream ofc) is a common skill that only has 3 levels.
      I managed to hit level 104 on a X5 rates server!

      Just tested it again to be certain. 5 pounces that didn't stun, all 5 still resulted in the buff on my pet, these were on normal mobs (bloodbirds and demonic rougeknights) where the stun just didn't land not bosses which are immune and we already knew you could still get the haste against.
