AM also provides a strong damage buff, status effect resistance, and movement speed increase. And it's always good to have when you're on a team regardless of archetype.

I guess. On the Rikti pets it lasts 1m with a 4m recharge and the "strong" damage buff is +10%. It also has a target cap of 16.

They do. iTrial mobs (and Praetorian DE, in tip missions) operate at 64% ToHit, as opposed to the normal 50% we see everywhere else. That's before we consider buffs or particular attack powers with intrinsically high ToHit values. (Like, say, Knockout Blow or Fire Breath.)|

Whether iTrial conditions have any relevance to Lore Pet ToHit, I can't say -- but I tend to doubt it. IIRC the devs even confirmed in the Issue 20 Beta forum that Lore pets would see a dramatic improvement with Nerve Alpha. Wish I could look for that post, but it'd be long gone now.

I'm thinking the real reason Cimeroran pets do more damage is because they have five attacks each (this includes the lieutenant where with Phantoms and Warworks, the lieutenant has just two attacks), and the ability to do scrapper criticals. With a fully fleshed out attack chain, along with criticals, they play like their ITF counterparts - spike damage. :3 I'd imagine the defence debuffing helps a bit too though.

The full attack chain is definitely a help. I see a lot of the other lores sitting around waiting on recharge while cims are always hacking at something.

I can be found, outside of paragon city here.
Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.
The Rikti support pet, for example, has Accelerate Metabolism which is hugely useful for Masterminds (not to mention teammates).
