Is the Dark Wanderer now the best DD pet? I see people using that

I've got a lvl 50 Scorpion from wayy before, would it be worth it to switch?

DD pets are really only useful in squads against [?] mobs. ---edits out my comment LOL----

DD pets are really only useful in squads. but really... I wouldn't say they're worth it. I'd rather have my pet stay alive then having to worry about it DDing. The best DD for me is to have a tanking pet that is better at staying alive while i amp / ironwood / give sparks / do dmg. Then I don't have to worry about healing it that often.

We're given an major advantage on [?] mobs and bosses because of reduced damage on all but pets. We also pay a lot of coin for a little difference in weapon dmg when it only counts for a small portion of our actual atk. We can make a huge difference in how long it takes a squad to get through something partly by capitalizing on this.

Some numbers to consider (Lvl 100):

Dark Wanderer: Atk-3342 Atk/s-.8 DPS-2674 w/claw-3476.72
Vericose Scorpion: Atk-4008 Atk/s-.6 DPS-2404.8 w/claw-3126.24
Baby Hercules: Atk-3210 Atk/s-.8 DPS-2568 w/claw-3338.4

Now consider that putting Claw on a Herc wouldn't be wise because it's more of a tank pet than a DD pet. A DW or Scorpion with claw is going to way out DD a Hercules w/o. A Scorpion doesn't tend to be a great grind pet, but a Dark Wanderer can be great on melee mobs. The differences in DD on these pets is going to be amplified by Amp, Ironwood, Extreme Poison, etc.

Ahh nice. I didn't realize it had that much dps. Wouldn't it steal aggro easily though? So is the dark wanderer the highest dps pet now?

as melee dps yea but i think scorpion with skills will do more than dark with skills because of the higher physical atk while dark has better atk speed and less p.atk

Right: The Dark Wanderer is more ideal for times you don't want it to take aggro, but also more suitable for tanking Stygean (because of pdef). The skills take the same amount of time to channel/cast regardless of pet. Dps could actually be hindered by skills on a faster hitting pet so that will make a difference as well. My Scorpion can tank most of the bosses in FF. Haven't tried DW there.

Your playstyle could be different than everyone else's.

I had a v.magmite until level 64 (Is when I got my herc yeh).
I had a windwalking piggy until 75. (Nix then)

Luring, I like mah cactopod (Lovingly named CactaPWN b:laugh ). Though sometimes I'll just lure with herc.

King_Solomon - Heavens Tear · April 2010

I love my wolfb:victory

I'm planning endgame skills as: flesh ream / bloodhunger / pounce / claw

btw does anyone have bloodhunger? is it really better than bloodthirst?

MystiMonk - Sanctuary · April 2010

The only downside to some of these pets like sawfly is that you have to upgrade it skills mostly bash.I got bug as well but not sawfly as lvl 32 with a lvl 2 or 3 bash.I wouldn't say a sawfly is the best even skatefish or what it is called.

Aliella - Harshlands · April 2010

okay first off FAIL THREAD!
you cant tell people that those pets are the ONLY ones you should use, personally i hate the **** huge magmites/walkers i cant see the bosses when i use them and the shadou is so much smaller and is as much affective as both of those. personally i use my piggy as my air pet because it suits ME the best and its cute.....but thats beside the point, i dont like have a bug following me -.-" for luring i use my kowlin because its fast,has pretty good stats and my friends sometimes complain about veno luring being slow. you shouldnt post things like this its like you posted this as flame bait. b:surrender

XxTerraxX - Raging Tide · April 2010

I rarely have to lure thing on the world map, maybe some quest mini-boss like that lv69 tresure hunt quest. Otherwise...tell me that new abilities you added to your foxwing to be able to be used in dungeon? b:chuckle

what about the seamonster? how much DPS does it have?

Silest - Sanctuary · July 2010

Necro much, but I just read a post that made my eyes bleed and fall out and I'm not talking about the post above me.

Stxchup - Harshlands · July 2010

So, what u guys r saying is that the Dark wonderer doesnt take much agro? And here i am to use it to kill mobs, because im tired of taking agro from my GW... hes lvl 58, and i still take agro... it anoyed me... But im saving up for a Herc!!!!b:laughb:laugh

tweakz · July 2010

Unintentionally stealing aggro from pet is entirely the veno's fault: not the pet's. -Take that from a pure mag 101 veno with a +10 Lv. 99 weapon normally using -48%ch. If you can't learn some simple stuff about aggro playing a Veno: you're likely to flunk as another DD as well.

Consider mobs pdef to mdef. Melee or no when comes to reflect? Wood or Earth? Kill before reaches you? Using applied pet skills even if they do no direct dmg?

Seems like people are still confused....

Land: Before you get a herc:
- Glacial walker (666 170) ~ Level 19

Air: Before you get a nix:
- Petite Sawfly (382 331) ~Level 8

Water: Just use any water pet near your level till you get to level 80. Than get the Celestial Plumpfish (627 586).

For luring bosses:
- Eldergoth Marksman (422 755) ~ Level 41

For DPS:
- Dark Wanderer (691 266) ~ Level 19

*Until you get a herc it will be very hard to solo any bosses unless you are fighting a high magic attack boss and have a pet with high magic defense (froggy/antelope pup)*

Windwalking piggy is quite a good air tank and for lure pet can use kowlin oso

Aniella - Harshlands · August 2010

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL THIS TREAD IS OLD :OO..but anyway xD LET PPL USE THOSE PETS THEY WHAT..i

Brael - Dreamweaver · August 2010

No pets are needed to play a veno. To actually excel however there's a decent sized list of pets you do need, and it varies a bit by level.

Dark Wanderer: Atk-3342 Atk/s-.8 DPS-2674 w/claw-3476.72
Vericose Scorpion: Atk-4008 Atk/s-.6 DPS-2404.8 w/claw-3126.24
Baby Hercules: Atk-3210 Atk/s-.8 DPS-2568 w/claw-3338.4

Is the wanderer a 7 on the growth chart? I thought scorpions ended up higher because they were both 6's, but if those numbers are right I guess it is a 7. I guess that's what I get for being out of it for awhile, I'll have to update my sheet.

Anyways, if you take bashes into account:

		Claw+0	Claw+1	Claw+2	Claw+3
Wanderer	3475.68	3841.54	4207.4	4573.26
Scorpion	3126.24	3729.55	4332.86	4936.17
Herc		3338.4	3689.81	4041.22	4392.63

If you use two skills the scorpion takes the lead, with 3 skills it's a 10% lead. Of course, more skills means more aggro so if that's actually better or not would be situational. The reason for this is the .6 attack/sec benefits a lot more from bash.

Wanderer 365.86
Scorpion 603.31
Hercules 351.41

Is the amount each pet gains per bash.
