Rotating growl around to different targetsĪlso if you are alone fighting mobs with your turtle and you pull agro, there are some things you can do to reduce your agro. There's nothing you can do to allow gorillas and owls to take more of a beating, but there are a number of ways to make your turtle better at controlling agro. The only way however to get the best of both worlds is to use the turtle. The problem is that unlike owls and gorillas they have no aoe attacks and have trouble holding agro of large mobs. It should come as no surprise then that there is no pet that can take more of a beating than a turtle. On top of this he has shell shield which reduces dmg taken by 50%. With maxed natural armor, and my toon wearing mostly mail, my turtle has 14143 armor at 70 which amounts to 57.26% dmg reduction. I don't know the definitive answer to this question but i'd like to relay my turtle experiences here. I posted the following relaying my turtle experiences. That's either 100% more dps (your attacks do 50% threat, letting you dps harder) for 60 seconds in the 10 minute fight (10% improvement) during which time you trinket and blow all your cooldowns or on the low end 50% less threat (your contant dps only counts for half) for 60 seconds of the 10 minute fight (5% deduction against total threat).Ĭomment by bonevaderI just responded to a post on the wowhead forums where somebody asked what the best tanking pet was. With Fetish you get 5-10% more dps before you pull aggro and die on Void Reaver. Even when combined with shrouding potions this will barely let you dps for a few extra seconds and for me personally it comes out to less than 2% of my threat. That's 3600 threat out of hundreds of thousands.

On a Void Reaver fight (an encounter where threat matters a LOT) you can use this at most 4 times. So far noone here have mentioned the real pve uses for this trinket and exactly why Fetish of the Sand Reaver is ultimately better than this garbage Use: for pve situations.įor 5-mans and players learning to manage their aggro granted these are some good training wheels, but for serious pve encounters Fetish is incredible. Comment by karlthepaganHaving used this trinket in pve and pvp I'm much happier with the pvp applications.
