Strategy for non-Mage-Tamers ..

[Minky]

Yes, I have read the stickies.

What I'm curious about is how you handle bigger game without a way to heal yourself (I'm working on building up a suit based around HPR).

My template is: 120x Tame/Lore/Vet/Peace/Discord/Music

My standard pet is the Cu Sidhe.

With him, if I get hit, I can always peace the mob, get him to follow, and he'll heal/cure/res if needed. The problem is that I've started messing with a Rune Beetle (again since I've dropped Magery), and this strategy no longer applies. Yes, potions go a long way, but they're not enough.

TL;DR: I can haz halp? (I've been reading the WoW forums, those guys are funny, and not in the good way.)

I run an archer/tamer for PvM/PvP. I heal with 2+ FC Close Wounds/Remove Curse/Cleanse by Fire. That keeps me alive.

I've had a couple scares yesterday trying to find a decent Bake Kitsune. Had 2 bake's casting on me like mad, but was able to heal through it.

Might have to look into + skill jewels if you want to run all those skills.

You could get away with 100 Peace unless you plan on peacing champs as well.

Or you'll have to rely on pots, heal wands, people cross-healing you.

notice you have your cu healing, cureing and resing you. Small problem Cu's cannot res. even maxed out on healing skill.
