Range pets are good for k95 until raid boss and for first stage of Octavis. Nothing else(PvE...olys is other story). |

I'm guessing you're making assumptions because of n00dles QQing about the "Critical Damage Nerf"? (Of course melee does have a slightly better overall dps, but the main thing is making sure you get Counter Critical, the amount of summoners who are complete idiots and keep at range away from the boss so it won't CC them, and don't use Rage or Transform, is stupid). |

some wynns argue that it's better to use ranged, since they don't get stunned or hit, but that's what servitor blessing is for. spectral link gives not only crit dmg, also crit rate and p.atak, L4 and L5 (plus cc) does give a kick. |

If you check the damage of 100 melee vs 100 ranged summon next to each other you'll notice that the ranged summon actually crits for more damage than the melee summon in all situations. It's non-critical damage is also significantly higher for some reason. So even with slightly lower atk speed the ranged pet's increased base damage makes it so there's not a huge dps difference. |

Some pets are better for some use and others for other use. No matter what anyone say Dark Crusaders are by FAR better in killing raid bosses than the ranged ones. I didn't create my char yesterday to be 100 in 10 days as most people. I tested gear after gear after gear to come to a conclusion based on personal experience. Raiding summoner must be light armor and retributer and Close combat pets or to have A LOT of free time to waste. Exceptions to this rule are: K95 until you kill all minions and then switch to close combat pets to kill Kalios and Octavis only for first stage. I do k95 duo and if I try to do the raid with ranged pets it would take me 40+ mins to do! Now I am on 22mins. My only QQ is for dark elf summoner ranged pets that don't have aoe skill as the soulless had. Only that. |
