soulbound allegiance

My marketeer toon stockpiled some Soulbound Allegiance sets in anticipation of a big rush of new Demon Summoner demand.

A couple of my own MMs are approaching 50 and I'll definitely slot at least the build-up procs myself, but the set bonuses just don't impress me.

The 2-slot bonus of 16% regen seems the nicest.

I'm considering slotting 2 SAs in each of the 3 pets, for 48% regen. A brute would love to spend 6 slots for 48% regen, but does it make sense for the low base HP of a MM?

One of those MMs is /traps, so piling this on top of triage beacon might make sense for boss fights.

Thoughts?

edit: whoops, i was under the impression he was using the same two for each power
regen bonuses are OK but if you can i would shoot for max hp bonuses.

Not true, he has all six recipes, so he can split them up and put two in each power.

Yes, that is a great bonus, and a nice way to get it. I'd do it if I had that many SA IOs.

Remind me again, does the proc only trigger on the tier3 pet? Doesn't seem to work at all in the tier1 or tier2 ones, supposedly because they're lower than level 50.

Does this proc shine on any specific pet in particular?

Formerly it failed to work on pets lower than 50 but it does work in all pets now. Keeping the pet's combat attributes open with show it, and I believe it has a buff icon too, but I have those turned off.

I have used it in my assault robot, because she has the most AoEs and gets the most use out of it. For other sets, it would depend. Putting it in the lich would be a waste, as he doesn't do a lot of damage.

I've seen lots of posts saying the proc only works on the top tier pet. The other day someone said that was a bug and has been fixed, I'm not certain either way.

People say great things about slotting it in Assault Bot, apparently it has a chance to proc for every critter in a burn patch. One guy said he's seen his Assbot double and even triple-stack the build-up proc.

I'm looking forward to bots/traps hitting 50 so I can see for myself...

Yeah that was me. It's a routine thing for my Assbot.

I've also seen it happen to my fluffy ball of doom that my warshade summons, but that was only once.

Can't say about the stacking of the effect, but I will say that when I slotted that thing it made a noticeable difference.

When I slotted that into my AssBot I promptley went out and soloed Stheno and Baphomet, two AVs I could not solo multiple time previously. Baphomet's heal only prolonged the fight which just gave my AssBOt more chances to get the build up effect and he went down in less that 15 minutes.

I was going to try to solo Nosfaratu but with the "CHARGE" bug I decided to wait so my guys won't run up into his damage field.
