I have been waiting for the pet caster updates for a while.
The enchanter has been greatly improved with his ability to command his own pet.
The pets are all more powerful - they pull aggro much better. However they are also much more expensive. Pet grouping has become out of the question for power leveling.
Enchanter's pets heal themselves, so it is not a problem for them.
Magicians can heal their pets slowly, so it is not to much of a problem.
However Necromancers can only use tap on enemies and pact with their pets. My Necromancer has become seriously effed. It is very hard to solo with my Necromancer any more as I can only do 2-3 summons before I am out of manna. At least before I could do a summon and buff before every battle.
