A Couple Questions about Pets. (Mainly NB's shade pets)

I posted this on the reddit and didnt really get any replies, so was hoping people could help me here. I wasnt really able to find answers via google, so any helps appreciated.

Anyways first off, can Sorc pets proc monster helms? Like can volatile familiar proc illambris, or even a simple deal damage for x% chance to proc helm?
I ask because I've currently got dark shades on my magNB (I know, not the meta and a waste of space, I like it though), and they dont seem to proc anything, like any helm whatsoever, its not considered a dot, or even a deal damage for a x% chance to proc.

Secondly can pets crit with their basic attacks? The Dark Shades I have as far as I can tell dont crit.... at all. Just up against a target dummy I have around 80% spell crit, which since they do magic damage they should be based off, and yeah nada.
Anyways thanks for any replies. Just wondering if this is intended or not.

When I tested this stuff out it was on Dark shades level 3, and I wouldnt be surprised if that levels just bugged, or Im extremely unlucky.

    Pets cannot proc monster sets, and they cannot crit.

    Why that is.. I cannot tell you.

    Send a familiar to attack a skeleton and see. It's not a hard test to conduct.

    Kay from what Im seeing testing it on a dummy, they're being based on weapon crit. I got about spell crit on the toon I was testing. I was lucky to beat a 50% where the average was more around 30% or in other words my weapon crit. Weird for a magicka attack, ah well thank you people for replying!

    I wouldnt be surprised, the pts patch notes for 3.0.0 do mention the other morph, Shadow Image is behaving this way as well, and they're gonna fix it once it goes live supposedly, but it doesnt mention Dark Shades whatsoever.
