call reinforcements: defense debuff
The attacks the pets make can debuff the defense values of the target. I wouldn't worry about it too much, since you've pro'ly already build for enough accuracy to reliably hit. It is useful for IO slotting tricks though... ref: Achilles' Heel:Chance for Resistance Debuff

Not according to the detailed power descriptions, they can't. Call Reinforcements also doesn't take def debuff sets to allow the Achilles proc, just plain def debuff enhancements.|

I had never before noticed they even could be slotted for it... but now that I see it, I'm pretty baffled.
Anyway, even if they have good -def in their attacks somehow, it wouldn't be worth slotting for over damage.

Color me perplexed then. I made the error of assuming since it could slot the regular, it could slot the sets. But, original point stands, you'd rather slot for damage over -Def.

one of the enhancements allowed for call reinforcements is 'defense debuff'... however after equipping this power with the enhancement and then reviewing the 'info' details for the power, i see no indication of any defense debuff-ing going on... so i have no idea what effect it has...
i have thought about replacing it with a third damage enhancement, but would rather know all the facts so i can make an informed decision!
