DH pet ideas - Page 2

[:1]Enslaved demon seems right...preferably something to distract and trip up enemies for a little bit. Rune it up to make it tougher, maybe have some kind of horrifying roar, or explode on dying (after all, the hunter hates all demons -even pet ones). And having a different demon for each rune would be really cool.|||I think what would be even batter, and make the DH even more elite, if it did not have a pet. I think having a pet shows meekness, to compensate for something you don't have or can't do. I think the DH class should be able to stand on there own 2 feats, and use them to kick diablo's but. Giving the class a pet would almost insult the class in my opinion. Besides there is already a pet class, let him keep the pets, and let the DH stick to shooting arrows in the bad guys face ( or enemy player's face, when PVPing.)

If anything the DH should be able to use his.her dark magic to summon illusions of themselves, that do no damage, and imitate what you do. Using trickery and being cunning, that would be awesome.

Not only that, if there is a pet, that means wasted skill spaces to associate with the pet, because with out those skills the pet would stink. I rather have those skill spaces used for something a little more creative. I also think having control over your pet would be needed to get the full advantage of the pet, with out it it would be brainless, but with he control - possibly too much to have responsibility over at one time, for a simple game-play type of game.

Pet or no pet, i believe blizzard will make the best choice, but that does not stop me from no wanting a brainless follower.|||Spike trap + Pet Rune = Screamer

Diablo 2 had pets.

Necro had his summons.

Druid had his summons.

And in that vein, the Amazon's Valkyrie and Assassin's Shadow Warrior were "pets" in function.|||he knows shadow magic, so logically a shadow beast of some kind would make sense. I love the idea of that.|||companion lvl 16 skill for DH, im guessing it will be a (d2lodAssn) shadow master like clone or some kind of shade monster/demon thematically similar to her shadow skills.|||Quote:

Based on the icon for companion, it looks like a Raven/Crow.



Hopefully it's more useful than the Druid's Raven!|||I was going to say the pet will likely be some king of demon that the DH has forcibly tamed, but 'trap' pets seem just as likely if not more so.
