Pet build choice?

Since the other game stuffs are getting boring, I decided to start raising a pet I'm still debating whether to build an attacking pet or support pet, so I have some questions:
1) Can the fastest pet ampr itself so I don't have to learn pet mp heal? And can support pet gain mp itself?
2) Is pet skill's damage affected by pet app?
3) Does attacking pet land skills fast and strong enough so that I can duo with it (I tank and it dps)?
4) If a pet's matk is higher than atk then how do I calculate its physical skill damage?
5) What affects a support pet's ability?
That's all for now, I may have other questions later. Thanks in advance

 

1. it can but will be slower, especially skills with high mp cost. some nature like gentle pet can't attack but it have natural mp regen.
2. yes. every pet app have %attack pattern, higher % mean higher damage.
3. yes if your pet is high lvl with high stats and lvl 10 dps skills.
4. not sure but probably still using your pet atk stat, except for rage/stealth atk skill.
5. hp and mp. you need it to survive boss aoe, sly or steady nature good at avoiding it. mp is important to spam skill. pet that can auto attack also good for proration (need magic auto so its attack wouldn't miss).

 

Does pet ampr scale with %attack pattern?
Does skill damage scale with %attack pattern?

Also what determines pet's max level? Tamer's level?

 

Pet ampr is fixed and not affected by %attack pattern, but it can be boosted by specific skills and natures.
Skill Damage does scale based on the %attack pattern.
Stray pets have their max levels based on your highest character level, rounded down to the nearest 10. Captured pets have the same max level as their level when you capture them, but that max level can be boosted by up to 10 levels with tamer skills.

 

Is it true that as long as pet's matk is higher, its auto attack will be magic regardless of weapon?

 

No, pet app must have magic attack first. As for the other thing, rage attack will be considered be magic based as long as matk is higher than atk.(same goes to the other skill that does not generate aggro). Both concept works what ever weapon the pet have(but you be missing out the added damage bonus of correct configuration tho)

 

Whatever pet build you decide upon, best to stick on stacking one pet type on top of the other. Also more level means more stat down the line(pet power is overrated and capped in good measure so screw that).

 

Does stone allow magic attack?
If the pet app doesn't allow magic attack and the weapon is staff/md, what kind of auto attack will it do?

How does pet power affect pet's strength?

 

FYI This post is a really good reference points for pet apps and whether they have magic autos:

Yes, check above post

Physical auto. Staff is short range. MD is medium range. Can miss

Consider pet power like weapon atk on a normal char
