I will look you up when I catch up a bit more and get more aquainted again. Better pet focus item would be nice. Still using 1.5 as focus. How much better in the aug you mentioned?
Actually the 1.5 is not a pet focus. It's click buff effect is just that, a buff for the pet. All the epic 1.5 does is increases the pet's hps by 800, give a small damage proc, and defensive proc (that only works on mobs up to 75).
Pet focus will change all things about your pet, including hps, AC, level, damage (both melee and spell), atk power, and depending on the level of a pet focus will determine the strength of a special cloak that will get presummoned on your pet that was introduced in SoF. This cloak only will work on the level 76+ pets. Lower tier pet focuses will summon a lower tier cloak like in the example below, but if you get a raid level pet focus that cloak will have capped out mod2s. All 76+ mage pets get presummoned with full pet armor made for that era (the new plate armor + jewelry + belt + mask), but not with the weapons so you can choose what type of weapon you want.
Ex.
In the picture below is the pet stats of all of the 81-85 pets, and their stats depending on the pet focus. The pet focus you would receive for joining us on an SoD tier 1 raid is Enhanced Minion IV.
If you notice, the difference between an unfocussed air pet to an EMIV focussed air pet is like night and day in the difference in power. The EMIV air pet has 4k more hps than the unfocussed, and nearly double the AC. Also, the EMIV focus is a raid focus, and the cloak that's presummoned on it has near capped mod2s (30+% shielding, spell shielding, near 100 avoidance, etc)
A couple notes to interpret the stats of the pets in the charts below:
The AC looks low, but that's only because the AC is pure AC without any kind of soft caps on AC.
To determine how hard a pet will hit for unbuffed (without aura, or BO modifiers) you take the Base damage x2 + the min damage.
Ex.
Unfocussed Air pet: 112 x 2 + 102 = 326
EMIV Focussed Air pet: 136 x 2 + 127 = 399
Unfocussed RS pet: 292 x 2 + 292 = 876
EMIV Focussed RS pet: 360 x 2 + 361 = 1081
Let me know if you have any questions.
