Pets sets and slotting

When I use the "pet sets" for slotting do the bonuses like +res and + hp effect me or the pets?

Set bonuses (+hp, +res, etc.) affect YOU ... not your Pets. The only exceptions are some of the uniques which specifically say they affect Pets via an aura (Taunt/Placate Resist, +Defense, +Resistance) which radiates from you because you've slotted that unique IO.


It's the end. But the moment has been prepared for ...

Why even call them pet sets? Doesn't this give other villains a huge advantage?

they are named pet sets because they can be slotted in pet powers, not because it buff pets. i guess you could say that it gives other villains an advantage in terms of buffs available to them, but it depends on which sets your looking for and what you can do with your primary and secondary.

not all set bonuses will be as valuable, but others will help you and what helps you helps your pets if they help you survive longer.
+HP, +end, +def, +regen, +resist help you survive longer
+rech help bring up all of those nifty powers faster

not to mention sets allow you to either enhance more aspects of a power, or save slots to slot up more powers - especially when you want max acc and dam on all of your pets.
