Well, I7 isn't on test and the devs haven't told us what it is... so, no.

Seeing as it's not I7 yet, no.

many seem to think that the pets upgrade powers will be AoE instead of single target to allow MMs to get ready for another battle after being defeated in PvP. I dont think anyone knows for sure.
Level 50s: to many to remember at this point
I'd take a stab at it being more of an aggro control thing, it's supposed to be a PvP buff too, and really, AOE buffs aren't gonna help me a whole lot when the tank decides I'm going to die.
Oh I see, thanks
More wild speculation on the matter, I also think it's going to be aggro-control related. They (mostly) figured out how to get tanker punch-voke to work in pvp, now it's just a matter of giving that to the pets.

I forsee a.... HP bump to Defender/Controller/Dominator levels.

More HP means you live longer. You are aware MM's have lower HP than those ATs I mentioned?

My guess is the Aggro thing as well. Pokevote for pets, which will work in PvP.
....It will also help aliviate the MM's "role" issue in PvE.....Bloody MM's and their "Gold-plated Pets"

All MMs were told they would receive a slight buff with i7, aimed at PVP but useful in PVE also. Does anyone on test know what this buff is?

When entering a PvP zone you will have the countdown timer...
to go back into the PvE zone from where you came.
Currently roleplaying, badgehunting, and laughing at the PvPers of CoX. lol, PvP.

Actually, it's not aimed at PvP -- it's a general change. Useful equally everywhere.
Would you mind saying what the "general" change is all about and how it may affect the survivability of the MM in both PvE and PvP?
Thank you!
SHAZAM! O.O

Here's my wild guess--the more pets you have out, the better your damage mitigation.

This doesn't fill me with confidence. I am already extremely effective in PvE, I don't need any help in that area. PvP is where MMs need the help, and we were told that the buff would be primarily for PvP but would also help somewhat in PvE situations.
PvE I never have trouble with mobs attacking me and ignoring my minions, that ONLY happens in PvP. If something to fix this isn't what the "buff" is going to entail, then it won't be an effective buff.

I wish they made MM's to where they are invulnerable to damage, they can still be buffed and debuffed and they die when all of their pets die. I know in PvP I dont really bother with the pets most of the time, I just go after the MM themselves and this would solve that. A MM is no good without his pets (minions) and this would represent that.
