Orb of Mastery  

 

For some reason the focus effect of "Minion of Eternity" doesn't work on the epic pet. The epic pet spell, "Manifest Elements", is flagged as a lvl 59 Magician spell, and the Minion of Eternity focus works on pets lvl's 59-75. When you summon the epic pet, it cons even to a lvl 49 versus conning even to a lvl 50 when summoned with "Minion of Darkness" focus (which is a weaker focus).

I was looking forward to having the most powerful epic 1.0 pet possible, by using the effect of Minion of Eternity found on "The Sweeper", but apparently I already had the best epic pet.

i want a cool looking staff for my mage :-( not a stupid orb :-(
the pet is nice tho :p

Another post, I've noticed this pet was nerfed horribly, it used to be the strength of the level 61 air pet but now it is a weak PoS. It still hits for 81 unfocused but has a much lower attack rating and takes a lot more damage. I was very excited to get the pet at first, I have minion of darkness focus at level 56 which is 20% pet focus and it conned light blue, sad. The pet was getting hurt badly in Greigs End, and sometimes missed a complete round of attacks. Not nearly what it used to be, I played a friends epic mage back in the day and it was a hell of a lot better. So this pet really is just good level 50-61 rather then what it used to be, level 50-66. Still, it's a very good pet but very disapointing for an epic though. It nearly took the same damage as the level 53 air pet i used to use. But the dps was better.

does anyone know where i can get a pic of the weapon and see a pic of the epic pet? would appreciate it..thanks

Is this REALLY only ONE CHARGE? So if my mage summons the pet she can NEVER summon it AGAIN??

Ok I just got this but have the Servant of Marr and the Child of Ro which one is better? I get great BS on the Servant sometimes (32k damage)... What is so great about the epic pet ... except it seems to be a combo of all the pets ? Please someone let me know.

Thanks

I am almost done. Just need crown PST on nameless with offer

if you have a server transfer will you still be able to bring this along with you being it is a spell?

i was wondering if normal pc spells will effect pets?
for instance a druid healing and chloro on them?
and is there a difference in this between necro(undead) and mages pets?

Definitely changed the game for me, My epic is sweet... but I hope we get upgrade with the new PoP.

Old sebilis is best place for epic mage solo,cash loot + xp = nice p. with kei epic mage can easy handle gang camp or zone out or 3 spawn lol, dont worry about *snare* just use cancel magic. then they wont run fast when low hp.just add a last nuke finish frog`s life.if you not Lv60. just becaful make sure which mob you can solo pull.

And for the @#%^ing clueless people who keep posting there and saying cleric epic is the best enchanter epic beats ya blah blah ...you dont have a @#%^ing clue about this game and the end game, you are just good to feed trolls..
No epic is better than another..some are more usefull(i mean utility), some are purely offensive (rogue monk MAGE etc..) and the fact is the mage epic is one of the hardest epic in the game , so the reward is on par with the difficulty. I hope you do realize how newbie you are when you say " a mage is just usefull for coh and rods", and you get something to feed your empty brain

Thanks ,

so does any know the stats and lvl of the pet?

The epic pet can solo a level 60 monk with epic, saw it about a week ago in EC tunnel, REALLY uber monk too. But it couldnt take the pet.

I heard a story about a mage soloing Naggy with this pet and a pathing trick (staying outside the room).
Rumor has it that if you cast new pets as the old one are dying, you can even kill Naggy in time.
Maybe you could call it the pet-bolt technique?

I love to see a tank class with thier epic defeat the epic mage pet...and still have 243hp left afterwards. HAR HAR HAR! But then you have to ask yourslef, what if the mage had helped it?

race/class doesnt matter to what weapons NPCs/pets can use(i've seen a npc bard with a damask robe so class doesnt matter), shadowed weapons are race none so its not that pets are human, the reason some weapons dont work is because at lower lvls the weapons damage actually affects how hard a NPC hits(lvl 1 pet with rusty halbred hits for i think 22) if u gave it a weighted axe it would hit for...in the 80-90 range probably...also if you gave a weighted axe to a lvl 1 and let newbs try to kill it, and get slashed for 3-4 times their max hp just wouldnt be fair

you can give nodrops to npcs and pets...but they wont use them or have them for loot...and i've seen pet its no where near as big as a HG silly. by levitate i think he was referring to how pets float

primary so pet couldnt dual wield even if he would use it, you just destroy it to summon a new one(imagine how cool it would be to see the epic pet with 2 of the mage epics running err floating around with rainbow trail though hehe)

anon i some how doubt it would let u do the pally epic in the first place...and that you could find people to help you when its just for a twink

hehe ever wonder why all the lvl 60s forget to post name/server..."LvL 60 Magician. Pet is GREAT i Can Solo in PoH if im careful. My pet can take the stuff in PoH easy. I also have 9 Gm items that might help." - Anonymous...if you even had any(or 9) gm items how does that make your epic pet solo better? and does one of these port you to PoH?...lets look at stats real quick, pet lvl 50, plane mob lvl, 49-52 usually...plane mob wins, pet max 67 plane mob max in the 100s..plane mob wins, pet hp 3000 plane mob hp 11000...plane mob wins...so explain how you pet does this again(ds and spells dont make up for that much)
