Well the Def/End Recover stats are 1.88% Defence/5% end recovery...

...and the other one is 3% damage/5% damage resistance to all

Yesterday a teammate had one of those and I think the buff only affected him.
I stood right next to the drone and had no buff icon in my tray.

did it survie long as it did have an issue of " oh look what that over there and get spatted by a fly swatter"

I don't think it's a team buff. The power itself when running only says that it affects self.

Edit: (And it is fairly squishy and seems to be a bigger aggro magnet than Tanks and Blasters!)

2.5% def actually.

They are also nigh impossible to keep alive, cause the buff aura draws *ALOT* of aggro, and they have 10 hitpoints.

The aura is for you only, imagine the aggro it'd cause if it was a team buff. Tankers would prob get outtaunted by it (yes it's that bad. I once hit a guy with three attacks as a scrapper and he would not turn away from pet, after my third hit, he killed off my pet and my 4th killed him).

They're nice to have, but the aggro issue makes em downright a pain in the tushie to keep around (anot not the good pain).

rofl I guess the devs didn't want to give us something that might give vets an advantage over others. Still, 10 hp is laughable, makes it about as useful as a wet tissue. We'll still be able to use them as decoration around the Atlas statue I suppose...

Oddly enough, when you right click the icon under your power tray, it does say 2.5% Defence...

However, when you look at the detailed info, it says 1.88% Defence buff.

Mmmmh, wonder which is right.

Edit: Combat Attributes say 2.5% too. Think they need to update the text under Detailed Info.

Thay're ok, if you are attacking all mobs at once. It doesn't take aggro, unless there's more than one mob and you've not hit or held the 2nd and subsequent.

So, solo on heroic or equiv on red side, is perfect. anything more and it gets killed incredibly easily

I do agree, what would be the problem with making its hitpoints the same as the characters level i.e. lvl 1 = 1 hp - level 50 = 50 hp again not massively overpowered and worth having and using.

Just got it myself, and enjoying it, despite it being so squishy.

Pretty much instant.
And it costs no endurance, so out of that standpoint it's fine, but it's having to resummon it pretty much after every little fight thats a pain in the tushie.

Well, summon a +Attack pet, then LRM. Damage bonus from a safe distance.

Works for me - looking forward to it

I'm sure the 3% damage it gives will surely tip the scales of battle

I suppose so but popping a single (tiny) inspiration gives you nearly ten times the increase. While a few minions might notice the effect, it's not going to leave Lord Recluse quaking in his boots.
