    Well, for a tanking pet, the best after the herc, is the Glacial Walker, then comes the Crystalline Magmite. The Crystalline Magmite was the best after the herc before the Tideborn expansion. Also, a sawfly as an air pet will do you fine since the amount of quests that require you to kill air mobs are not as much as ground mobs in comparison. Dark Wanderer is the best DD pet after the Nix as far as I know right now. For me, I still use a Magmite because I had it since I was a low level, left the game for a good while, came back and was at level 27 and the new expansion had taken place, didn't know that there is a better pet than the Crystalline until level 50 and that's why I don't have a walker. b:surrender

    Also, make sure to use the search function next time, there are answers to your questions somewhere in the Venomancer section and if you can't find answers, you may ask in the Venomancer section not here. =/

    1. Tree of Protection(amazing heals)
    2. Tangling Mire(lowers mobs defense and move speed)
    3. Alpha Male (genie's mini-roar)
    4. Holy Path for gathering mobs in FC easier

    That's just what works for me. I'm working on getting a 5th skill for my genie, but that's a whole different topic...

    There has been a lot of genie questions in the past.

    What it always comes down to is how YOU play and what you plan to do with your barb.

    What seems to be smart for those who have the time to lvl up is getting 2 genie's. One for tanking/squading what have you and the other for PvP. Can use which ever yiou like for soloing as well.

    I know Zeal is popular to have for the single pulls from flame.

    ToP(tree of protection) always seems like a smart choice, heals are always good.
    Alpha Male I suggest if you plan to tank and run delta's/FC's
    Holy Path for sure, being able to move very quickly helps in a lot of places.

    Those are zome pretty basic skills most players prolly use. A more specific skill I personaly use is: Earthquake-Being able to cancles channeling instantly and working with AoB is priceless.

    So it really comes down to what you want to do and how you want to use your genie.
    Hope this helped

    my genie currently has

    earthflame (pull)
    soild shield (mini invoke)
    tree of protection (heal)
    holy path (for fc mobs)

    and
    mantel of ripple rage
    but only cause i wanted to try it out, i prefer tangling mire more and will give it back that soon
    Killing level 80's with a lvl 60 is a lot more fun than killing level 90's with a level 100.

    I have 2 genies.

    My PvE genie has Holy Path, Frenzy, Tree of Protection, Absolute Domain, and Cloud Eruption.

    My PvP genie has True Emptiness, Holy Path, Occult Ice, Tangling Mire and Extreme Poison, stack with a nice 100 STR points to it, hard great effect increases.b:victory

    I've recently went Claw Barb, so my PvE genie may look....lame. :s

    My barb has:
    Second Wind - for healing
    Solid Shield - a must for barbs, extra protection
    Wind Shield - adds protection and increases attack rate. I like to use it and that skills that gives extra Chi with each hit, helps fill it up faster.
    Blinding Sands or whatever it's name is. The lowest Earth skill. I'm going to ditch it before too long for another skill but haven't decided what to get yet.
    I'm considering Alpha Male for another aggro option.
    I like how Tree of Protection looks but i'm not sure if it requires the affinities that it says it does. Did they ever fix that?
