Hunt leader set. What's the point if the pets are magicka morph?

It's a medium armor that gives set bonus to pets in orsinium dlc. I'm assuming this is for sorcerer since they are the only class with "pets." Stats of pets are based on how high your magicka is, not stamina. Anyway i hope they rework this before putting it to live.

It's for Stam Sorcs, just because an ability doesn't use stamina doesn't mean people won't want to use it, people will pop their pets for the resources they get back rather than the damage they deal....

Rumor is that Hunt Leader works with NBs shadows - havent checked personaly. Also its highly possible to work even with Morkuldin "summoned" swords. As for me this set is just try to create truly tricky NB.

Yes people will want to use it but it isn't compatible with the skill. Pet sorc AI is bad already and having this on your armor doesn't help much. This is the first pet armor set that has potential, maybe if they tweak the skill or armor set it may be useful to use.

If it does work with NB shadow summon skill then they should change the description from "pets" to "summons" to avoid confusion.

A shade is a "pet" ,a summoned sword is a "pet", a daedroth is a "pet" and even the orb from ball of lighning is a pet (doesnt attack though).
I see this set to only be used by stam NBs, since sorc pets are about as usefull as argonian swimspeed for stamina users. In fact with their cast time and high magicka cost they are even worse.

I don't think it matters what constitutes as a pet for this set.
The return is so pitifully low that no one will use it anyway.

Im a stam sorc, and used the clanfear that does physical dmg (scales with magicka). The dps was so low it did not even show in ftc after fight. It does around 50 dps.

Useless for stam sorcs, Briarheart set will be quite good for stam sorcs/NBs on the other hand.

I'd guess that was aimed at hybrid builds. Just like the multi-stat glyphs etc.
