    Bash is better holding your aggro, FR helps but the CD is freaking long... Also, why should you give herc another buff? o.O

    Claw might help it a little for holding aggro and killing things faster. But nto really worth it, I don't think. Would be kind of nice to give it the HP buff though.
    101 Sage Sin*/Archer
    100 Demon BM*/Barb
    96 Demon Cleric/Sage Seeker
    95 Demon Wiz/
    94 Sage Veno
    85 Psy/80 Mystic
    And a handful of other alts, all 79 and under.

    i see votes and realize once more ppls have no idea about veno class even if is mainb:laugh

    first of all bash won't hold agro anymore ..anyone can get rank8 at least or more and at that point phoenix can't hold agro...

    second hercule is not what used to be anymore hence all aps class and stuff...30%hp will help ur pet survive in very hard instances or boss..dmg he does is nearly 0 so better have him safer

    and third best skill of all for me was ...roar ...because u can help return agro if something go wrong...but i had to put bless on my hercule....in long run i found better he has 6000 hp instead 4630...at lvl 101

    but for a cheap option i found roar much much better....since bash is useless nowdays...don't activate roar and use when is need to save cleric or tank a bitb:bye

    Go with bash. Decent agro skill with a short cooldown.

    Roar might be nice to grab agro back but that's all it does. Bash holds agro better overall.
    And if you sin there want to argue that way, you don't need a herc at all endgame. So any pet would do.
    I wouldn't get roar at all. I use my herc to solo things and what I need is a decent agro skill, not a skill that pulls agro back for a moment.

    I advise against getting yet another buff like claw. You would have a pet without an agro skill you can steal from pretty much every spell you cast. And hercs don't even have enough phy attack to make claw be worth the costs.

    I know a guy who put Blessing on his herc.

    It's a skill set that's tailored almost exclusively to soloing venos. If you want to solo things and not be able to attack much? Get Blessing. Otherwise, be prepared for it to lose aggro with nearly the first attack anyone makes on its target.

    Yes, I'm still a stubborn holdout in favor of the old game. Haters gonna hate. ;]

    Bash is standard.

    In higher levels, (90+), Claw will significantly increase the DPS of the Herc and will improve aggro much more than bash or Flesh ream.
