Question about +5% DEF sets

1) If I slot the +5% DEF unique in the tier 1 pets, do all pets benefit from the DEF bonus, or just the pets that actually have the set?

2) If I use the recharge intensive set with the +5% DEF unique in Gang War, does the 5% only kick in when Gang War is activated? (I'm thinking yes on this one, but want to be sure)

Would appreciate any input, thank you.

All pets benefit when in range of you. The uniques are granting you a power which buffs your pets, but they have a pretty short range.

This unique works all the time (as long as you do not Ex below its range). You do not need to activate the power it is slotted in.


Why Blasters? Empathy Sucks.
So, you want to be Mental?
What the hell? Let's buff defenders.
Tactics are for those who do not have a big enough hammer. Wisdom is knowing how big your hammer is.

It helps to get all these IOs at the lowest possible level in the event that you have to exemplar down. This way you get more benefit out of the set as you level and when you exemplar down.


Bump and Grind Bane/SoA
Kenja No Ishi Earth/Empathy Controller
Legendary Sannin Ninja/Pain Mastermind
Entoxicated Ninja/PSN Mastermind
Ninja Ryukenden Kat/WP Scrapper
Hellish Thoughts Fire/PSI Dominator

Thank You Devs for Merits!!!!

I thought the range on the def/res aura IO's was about the same as supremacy, which has a 60' range.

The radius is 40' -->Source<--

As others stated, its always on, unless exemplared below where its slotted.
