    I use the clanfear myself, I never leave home without him :blush: I use him for an emergency heal, not that its really needed in there with a damage shield, but I use it as an emergency heal in other situations too, like trials and pvp, and I don't want to keep respeccing. I'm also quite attached to the ugly thing :lol:

    Why use that for an emergency heal? Surge plus any attack and frags heal a sorc from near death to full in 1s anyway. Ditch him now and use the little familiar.

    Yeah, I might give the familiar a chance :lol: I never really use the clanfear for a heal in maelstrom, just for pvp mostly...

    Lol. It's funny that more and more people are getting into pet builds, and more specifically PetSorcs for VMA. I remember not too many months ago, when I was doing VMA with my pet build. I was mocked. I was told that it wasn't the wisest of choices, and how I was making VMA much more harder than it was by using a pet build. Funny how things change in such a short period of time, and now pet builds are so popularized and spoken highly of...

    But anyway, yes. Pet builds do a wonderful job in VMA. They always have, and they always will. In my opinion, pet builds actually are the strongest builds for PvE (if solo'ing content) and PvP (if solo'ing).

    They were heavily buffed last patch that's why people are using them now.
