Hello,

I am new to the list and being a Necro. I am a level 4 Necro on the
Mithaniel Marr server. I am a little confused on the pet weapon issue.
Last night I gave my pet a rusty short sword. Before I gave it to him his
max damage was 6. After I gave it to him it went to 10. Was it just a
fluke and the weapon didn't do anything? That's what the below seems to
suggest.

Thanks in advance,

Alazzar

There are two types to give to pets. Weapons that
process, and weapons that do not. If you give a pet a
weapons that processes(dnoll hide lariat, mage
summoned sword), then the pet will process in battle
and do extra damage. Any other weapon makes no
difference what so ever. Rusty, low damage, high
damae, low speed, high speed, it makes no difference
what so ever. However, with the recent weapon change,
the pet will sometimes "eat" a weapon. You give it a
weapon, and it does not show up as a graphic, and pet
does not double hit. You need to give the pet another
weapon.
