Hi, I'm getting close to the level in which I can use these pets but I cant decide which is better for me. I need help deciding :p. Which of them is better for handling multiples mobs?

    walker has more HP and mroe magical defense. only a LITTLE less attack and a little less p.def... not noticable though.

    Either is good, though I'd say the Walker is a bit more well-rounded. PLus, I think Walkers look cooler.

    But a word on holding multiple mobs at once: If there is more than one mob aggroed on your pet, MAKE SURE the pet hits each of them at least once. This ensures that the pet will hold aggro on all of the mobs. Otherwise, when you heal your pet, the extra mobs (ones that have not been hit) will run at YOU.

    That said, neither the Walker nor the Magmite is essential, though they are among the best tankers. I've been using a Quadrastral Beetle for many situations, and it has worked just fine.

    Then make sure each mob is hit with bash (or icicle, or whatever aggro skill(s) your pet has) at least once, or your heal will eventually overpower the little hate a normal hit will generate.

    I like 'em both. The Walker, it seems to me, needs less healing in most cases. Though the Magmite seems to make quicker work of the mobs.

    I think Magmites have a more classic look, theyre old school. But I love my glacial walker. When he takes his head off it looks like hes hugging me which I find adorable. xD

    Yes, I love how they interfere with my targeting in places like FB51 where I could normally just AoE and pick off the non halted ones before they can reach me. They can actually slow down the clearing process.

    he takes his head off, and rattles it like a dice, to see if his wits are still installed! and when you kill them they collapse into a pile of ice cubes! ^_^ magmites are just piles of rocks. i have both, and use both, but i dont really like either. i have an armoured bear that seems to be tougher, though i admit i havent leveled my walker up yet.

    I love that. :D I dont love when he dies but the way he dies is just so awesome. I wish my character did something humorous like that when she died. She just kind of flops over. D;
