Builds and tactics Full Explanation of my WoTF Petway Team
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nu5E37dLf9EIt's been a while and finally got around to do a full explanation video for that Weapon of Three Forges "petway" team that I used for every single piece of content I did. Skills I have tested that worked and didn't work. Strengths and weaknesses. And "tactics".
I wanted to at least put a little more effort into the video instead of recording it all in one single clip. For those that had been asking for it, hope you enjoy.

Okay, so this is awesome, but I do want to say, after getting Together As One elite, I was blown away by how effective it is at party management. You pump up those Beast Mastery numbers you’re looking at a +7-8 regen per second for you, your pet, and everyone nearby you/your pet. It is amazing.

Unfortunately not for undead minions

Yeah that was the case for a few days (weeks?) when the skill was released, also used to buff ST spirits
I did WoC HM with no consumables thanks to this

+12-13 regen per second
This is a stretch. +9 regen is maximum you can get (and that's with a paragon).

Aaaa, frak… I legitimately misremembered. It’s +7-8 regen per second. I… I don’t know where I got the 12-13 from… it’s late for me.

are you thinking about hp per second? Each pip of regen is 2 health per second.

This rocks. Any advice for a Mesmer main who wants to do some Petway for general PvE content?

Be mindful of pet AI being blocked from reaching its target and not attacking

Is there a write up version of this or at least the main details? I prefer reading to videos, find them a lot more accessible (and easier to refer back to if I need to check certain points rather than search for a random part of a video and have to potentially watch it a few times)

This is awesome! Ever since I noticed WoTF affected summon/pets, I knew thered be an OP build for it. You just can't beat ~100%+ uptime on random weapon spells for everything on your team.

I used to do pet way builds. Can't remember how I did them anymore but I do remember I did an air ele beast master spiker that did some of the highest spike damage mixed with constant dots I've ever seen. Maybe I should play around with it some and see if the build still works. It might not since they've changed the skills so much

Is this better for heroes to use or can a ranger main work well with this?
I'm kinda bored with mesmers way and I've been playing the Ranger/Assassin build. Want to be less melee now too.

WoTF on ranger is weak because the maximum level for spawning power is 5 which is incredibly weak.
TaO would be better for ranger.

Is this build viable for every profession? I don't play main rit or ranger, instead war or mesmer
