Longbow pets are pretty darn good when soloing GM's. Robotic Drones -regen doesn't really compare.

the -regen is not just -500%. It stacks. During testing against a pylon the cataphract maintained a reliable 500-2000% -regen dropping the pylon from a normal 102hp/sec to 30-somethinglow.
However, with that said, the actual damage output is pretty low. Still against a GM they'd be handy.

Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.
Howdy folks, I've been playing with the longbow pets because of the -regen and I'm not too impresed. Sure it's -500% but it's just 30% chance for 30 seconds. I'm thinking that the robotic drones might be better. each attack is -50% for 5 seconds with a 100% chance and each pet has atleast 2 of them. Anyone have an opinion?
