dear retards, n00bs, and idiots,
A necro pet is not ment to be a straight up tank pet. Necros are ment to agro or fear kite and have pet chasing the mobs beating on them from behind so that they bypass the mobs AC. Mage pets are more capable of tanking and taking mass dmg because Mages cannot fear, snare, or DoT mob. Necros main source of damage is ment to be from DoTs and DD/taps, pet are ment to be a slightly increased bit of DPS. If you really want the right to complain about a worthless pet, play a shaman or a druid for a bit. I box a shaman/necro combo, my lvl 63 necros pet out dmgs my TSS shaman pet (lvl 73 i think) by alot, i don't use a parser so i don't know eact amounts. All you people complaining about necro pets don't know what you're talking about or how to play your class. For all of you talking about the DC pet being better than a summoned pet... umm duh... thats the point of a DC pet... thats why you can only DC certain mobs and every zone doesn't have a mob you can DC it's because it's a special ability that you have to earn the ability to use. learn what you're talking about and atleast use the spell or ability before you start bashing it.

Where he walked the armour stopped its jingle, and the men of battle all cheered...
For the spirits walk with the Shaman, and the Shaman walks with us all."

I take issue with people who use the word "******" as an insult. Retarded people cannot help what they are, and they don't deserve this insult. But you're hardly the only one who does it.
That aside, I agree with everything else you've said. Although you forgot one in your list of less viable pets: the Enchanter. Only slightly stronger than a Shammy pet, significantly weaker than a Necromancer pet, this pet does not obey commands. It strikes only when you're attacked (whether the attack was successful or not), and short of sending it away, you have no way of calling it back, making it stop taunting, etc. It has no self procs and must rely only upon what its master is capable of casting on it.

I know why I can't get any Gallantry! It's just because I'm a Dark Elf, isn't it? Yeah, I see how you all are! "No buffs for the Inkies," right? "Dark Elves are all evil!" "Dark Elves smell funny!" Well, we do not smell funny! I've smelled Dark Elves all my life and it's nothing to laugh at!
