Pretty much, some suprised me though. Like the robot drones, which i thought would be like bot MM things, are just like device drones or the vet powers. And the light things are like croatoa wisps rather than PB light form.

I was a little disappointed in the Polars, too... They're the pint-sized vet-pet wisps rather than the white Northern Light fuzzballs. |

Still better pets for my Peacebringer than the Seers he has currently... but I'd have preferred a different model.

Light blue "pulsed" energy bolts and a sort of plasma spray (same colour). I uploaded some screenshots to photobucket, but not sure the bolts translate terribly well to a still image (or that my timing was great in capturing them): http://s1210.photobucket.com/albums/...wraith/Drones/|

The animation on the bolts reminded me a little of the rad snipe, though sleeker/thinner. Put me in mind of power effects of some of the Praetorian 1-20 mobs, but I can't place which (if any) they are lifted from (I'd be surprised if they were brand new animations just for the lore pets).
Wow thats it? lol
Yeah, I was envisioning ... battle drones ;P Or some kind of actual robot. Hmmm, maybe for more robot minions I'll just stick with Warworks. Kinda sucks ;P
Longbow gets a "Cataphract" at 'Boss' rank, much like how Warworks used to get "Warwalker" . Chances are this will be changed when 20.5 goes live, because of the size issue.
No, I don't have screenshots of the pets.. I have just used most of them. And they are by far stronger than the four we currently have. (In my opinion)

Which is kind of messed up seeing how Arachnos get a Toxic Tarantula instead of the RV heavy the way Longbow is.
Quote:
Well, its highly likely that is doesnt have anywhere near as many powers as its RV heavy counterpart. I know for a fact the nulli dont have...whatever that -res power they have is. Seems most Lore pets are watered down versions of the original. *sigh*

I'm seriously debating taking them on my /dev blaster who has the drone vet pet. Just for the sheer silly number of floating drones.

Close but not quite. Senechals and Dark Ring Mistresses yes, but they do get Strongmen, not attendants.|

The Strongman is the basic pet, the Senechal is the support pet (she gets Thermal powers to match her fire powers) and the DRM is of course the Boss pet.

Really, despite supposedly being Lieutenant pets, they don't even have all the powers of a minion ranked Strongman. All they have is Hurl, Punch and Haymaker. No Jab, No Mask, No End Drain on defeat, No Mallet attacks.

I guess i can kind of understand... think 24 people with lowbow nulllies (or even 8 for that matter).

It kinda sucks. You get a t4 Ringmistress that can attack and a Strongman that can attack and both stick around for 5 min OR you get a t4 Ringmistress who only sticks around for 3min or so and can attack and a non attacking seneshal who doesn't buff often enough and is not killable who sticks around for 5 min I would have much rather had the Ringmistress and Seneshal who could both attack instead of that ugly strongman. The lower level Seneshal that is paired with the ring mistress also doesn't attack (t3) and is killable. All other paired attacking pets, one of the two in both cases, is the strongman....paired with either ringmistress or seneshal.

I can understand if you don't like how the Strongman looks but having slotted both sides of the T4 for Carnie Lore Pets now, I have to say I'm very happy with how they perform.
I do miss Vickie standing side by side with me slashing away at stuff, though. Good thing I can always slot her back in if I wish since you don't 'lose' Incarnate powers once 'crafted.'
Anyone have screenies of the new Lore Pets? I'm looking forward to having thematically correct incarnate pets..
