Another time she tanked Rommy on ITF with just the aid of my transfusion perfectly fine for as long as the timer allowed her to last.

Vicky can definitely take a bit of a beating.
Yeah in normal non-incarnate content they're pretty damn tough, not Shivan tough but tough enough to survive and get the job done.

Ok just managed to Duo a Paladin clockwork with a level 40 Corruptor heroside, having the -res interface really helps.

Seriously for single target DPS, just about the best pet in the game, the numbers, especially when combined with the +damage Alpha and the -res/fire DoT of Reactive, turns a Tank into a possible GM soloer.

I'm going to go test that out once the Warwork pet has recharged.

Once I got my rare in Lore, I tried to solo a Rikti Pylon on my crab. I'd tried this before, and would always run into trouble when my envenomed daggers ran out at about 50% through.

Vicky didn't last terribly long on the job though, getting blown away before I was 25% into the pylon. I did manage to take the pylon down to about 25% health before my daggers ran out, so that is progress.

Oddly enough that odd quest of mine is likely the only reason I will attempt to get lore to the ultra rare.


Too many alts to list.

Well came back and while Vicky is much more survivable against Kraken than against a Rikti Pylon the DPS isn't enough to overcome the regen with a Tank to be able to solo the GM in the 5 minute timelimit.

the health WAS dropping and if the peta was perma, give it 30 minutes and I could probably solo it.

This was with the Very Rare Reactive 75% -Res chance and 25% chance of fire Dot, very rare +45% damage alpha and a Rare Warwork buff pet.

Now if you include a Shivan with that, it might be doable, I'll test again later.

On those two, it helps that they're ranged, so they stay away from Marauder's Nova Fist. They're not invincible, but they can take a beating.
I have the rare level defence version Clocks for Kestrel (A Builder and Mender; both targetable. She calls them "Bubble & Squeak". ), and they've held up really well. I'm sure it helps that they're typically Invisable and always inside Barrier-range when she fires it, but they don't seem to be especially fragile pets. They honestly take a lot less tending than her Adept.

Ok tested against Marauder.

Now got the Very Rare Vicky + ACU (don't feel the buff bot is worth it) and if he hadn't had unstoppable, would have dropped him in about 20 seconds, if that.

So yes, the Warwork Lore pets turn a person who can't solo an AV into someone who can.

Update:

Just shy of soloing a GM with Shivan help, give it another 2 minutes and would have done it.
