Charm Question - NOT duration :P

[AanuuarVF]

I'm lvl 56 atm, so I just don't know yet... but, I figured I'd ask this question.

Suspend Companion...
Is this possible? If not, could someone run a quick description of how it works... thanks.

1. Summon pet - Suspend Companion
2. Summon New Pet to 'crawl' with
3. Clear Named Room with "New Pet" (leave 1 friend up)
4. Mez the "Friend"
5. Send in "New Pet" while you land Slow/Snare/Root/DoTs
6. "New Pet" dies... Charm "Friend" you left in the room
7. Send "Friend" at the named
8. "Friend" Dies...
9. Recall Companion "Original Summoned Pet"
10. "Original Pet" fights a 20% health Named...

xx- Substitute #2 for Dire Charm if you want.

That's my vision of Suspend Companion... is this totally off the wall or basically how you could work it?

~~EDIT~~ This should really be in the AXP Discussion if a MOD wants to move it

Yeah it can work that way. I always have a hot swappable pet suspended in a zone I am going to be in awhile just in case my DC pet dies.

Some notes about DC though.. You cannot:
1) Suspend a DC pet.
2) FD with a DC pet.
3) Summon a DC pet to your location.
4) Can be "de-charmed" by a caster mob who dispells him.

Suspend is best used when you need to run to a camp invis to see if named is up etc.. and then if he is, unsuspend your pet ready to go. This way you can start a fight with full mana rather than 800 down already. Suspend pet also casts faster than casting pet in the first place and is reusable..

What do I mean re-usable?

I mean you can keep suspending your same pet over and over so no mana waste. Lets say you are camp checking by inivis.. so you summon pet.. buff him and then suspend him.. you invis.. go to a camp.. named is up.. unseuspend pet.. kill named.. suspend pet.. invis.. go to next camp.. named is up.. unsuspend.. etc.. etc.

This also allows you to make pet assist hot keys like heal pet, or assist pet, etc. since his name wont change plus not use any mana while bringing up a pet each time after the first.

Also.. a little trick here.. if you suspend a pet with a DoT on him from a mob.. and then unsuspend him the DoT is gone. I have tried this with level 1 suspend but not on level 2 (which holds all his buffs etc). Any know if this is also true for level 2?
