Sorcerer Pet Survery: Tanks

paulsimonps

I am curious to see how many players actually currently use the Sorcerers Pets, especially now in Murkmire. I have made 3 Polls, one for each role, please use the correct role for your character.

I use the Unstable Clannfear

I still use my clannfear as a tank and a quick heal but I have only done pve overland content since the changes.

I do not use Pets

I find them annoying, and entirely unnecessary.

Thankfully, there's enough skills available to do every role (aside from maybe healer lacking a burst heal) well enough without them.

Personally I don't think clanfear is worth the bar space... no matter how cute he is....

Now, when pets are immortal in dungeons and trials, it's a viable choice. The problem is that it requires 2 slots. So if you give up the ultimate healing combo Boundless Storm + Surge, you can definitively use it.

For now I prefer Boundless Storm + Surge over the pet, because it doesn't require high Magicka Regen. However, I'm thinking about how to implement the pet in my tank build, because the +8% HP bonus is no joke.

Has anyone tried Hunt Leader set on sorc tank? The heal is pointless, but the stamina sounds nice for perma-blok fights (vAA axes, vMHK HM...).
