Pets, Summoner's Bag, and Scaling

I am posting this as there has been some confusion regarding the bag, pets, and pet scaling. Hopefully this will address some of these concerns and questions.

First, pets were made to scale a few months ago. The pets, on spawn, will gain 50% of the owner's resist (resist for resist basis) in addition to it's own innate resist values.
Second, pets gain 100% spell damage bonus and 200% healing bonus multiplied by the UC rank. (i.e. UC1 = +100% spell dmg and +200% healing, UC2 = +200% spell damage and +400% healing, etc). This increases their proc/cast damage, as well as any lifetaps, fairly quickly.
Third, if the pet class is a beastlord and has an Earring of the Brutal Ages, the pet gains the same damage bonus as the beastlord.

Those take place 'automagically' with no intervention required, short of summoning the pet. Now, if the player has the Summoner's Pack, the pet's damage bonus gains an additional 20% (multiplicative) spell damage bonus and 50% (multiplicative) healing bonus. This would raise a UCv3 pet spell damage bonus from 300 to 360, with the healing bonus from 600 to 720. In addition, any weapons in the Summoner's Pack add directly to the pet's melee damage. If the player has a UW, placing it in the pack will duplicate it on the pet when the pet is summoned. This means, YES, the pet can dual wield UW and another 1h. This also means the pets WILL proc the UW shenanigans too. :-)

I hope this explains it clearly enough and shows the value in the pet classes with all of the tools available.

If we aug the weapon we put into the bag does the pet proc that as well?

mages get that spell too

How does one get a summoner's pack? 

Purchased or summoned or trading his first born? 

talk to gnomer

Nope.

You can chalk that up to my edumacation...... or lack there of.  I guess I never fully learned how to read.   

I cannot find the mob in pofire anywhere, ive even cleared the entire zone and tried to start fennin ro event.

Nevermind had to use char with the bag in inventory got it ty.

Think smartvane common

t9 bst with ows cant get quest from roaming gnome in cg... just says i have nothing more for you.

Right now, it's necro/enc/mage only. I don't remember why, it was just in my notes to do so. I'll revisit it shortly.

And you have to be level 77, my 75 Enchy can't get the quest.

Sorry for the thread necro'ing....

On my mage, got the task from gnome, killed the stuff, combined the unfinished bag, but the task didn't update.  Tried running the mage all around in pofire and through the castles, nothing, am I bugged or missing something?

Had Rent show me where to run, no mob spawn.  Pretty sure my quest is bugged.  

To be clear, quest log says to get the pieces and combine for the unfinished pack, but I already did that and have the pack in inventory.  Log shows that it's not completed.  On the next HG kill, I got the strings again too.

Another update, remade the bag, still not updating the task.

Noted. I'll harass you tomorrow evening or just force reset your task stage if needed. ;-)

Summoner's bag issue -

I did the three items on my mage - combined in magic box and got the unfinished summoner's pack plus task updated. Went to pofire and was able to spawn forgemaster. Killed forgemaster, but my pack poofed. fire powder was on forgemaster corpse but don't have the bag anymore. logged out and in and nada. Task didn't update or anything. I removed the quest to go do it again, however now I cant even get the task again from roaming gnome. I get all syntax up to the "feeling brave" syntax then he turns non-responsive. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I fixed the issue regarding Summoners Bag today, this is no longer an issue.

I completed my bag last night, confirmed working.

Now to do UW for this toon......

LOL  ;D

Yea, I know I should have done that before I did the bag quest.  Sometimes I do stuff backwards, it works for me.  LoL

Thanks Akka for fixing the pack, much appreciation! Now I can actually enjoy that UW!

I know in the Wiki, it says primary weapon goes on the left.  My mage has an UW in the left, and Freeport Slasher in the right slot (secondary).  However, sometimes when zoning, the pet will say "Equiping Freeport Slasher".  Anyone else see this?  Does it matter?
