A question for Tanks

If you are doing a random normal dungeon, do you have a problem if a sorc with clannfear joins as dps? I was told by player that sorc pet builds meant they couldn't tank. So if you are a tank what is your view on this? Cheers

    The clannfear does not taunt, if a tank says so they are WRONG!

    IMHO anything goes for a random normal. I'd be a little worried if I saw a pet sorc tank in a vet trial, but as long as they have a sword and shield in a normal dungeon then I'd be fine with it.

    I've actually done this (tanked random normals on my sorc with a clanfear). My reasoning: I'm trying to level up the Daedric Summoning line, so I need something on my bar before unlocking bound armor and the clanfear can at least provide a heal if needed.

    Thanks guys ;-) Yesterday was the first time I encountered this and it left me wondering if I( my clannfear Mischief) was causing problems for tanks. I left the dungeon and went off and soloed Spindleclutch. Cheers

    My two cents, if you are using a pet as dps, then clannfear is the wrong morph. The volatile familiar packs a pretty powerful aoe skill and thus is far better for damage.
