I'm a Level 60 Balance Wizard with a Epic Hydra that has a Pedigree of 65.
One day while battling in Celestia against a Balance monster I was set upon by the enemies Hydra. Watching hoplessly as I got hit with the spell and seeing my Hydra standing there, doing nothing, it hit me (the idea that is).
If the Bosses are going to cheat then why can't we do something to prevent it? And if not us then why not our pets?
Why couldn't my Hydra have done something to the Hydra that was attacking me to stop or deflect the attack? I think it would be cool to see my little Hydra grow really big or cast a spell befor that other Hydra attacked me to prevent that attack.
Granted, i wouldn't expect it to happen all the time but in cases where your getting attacked by a spell identical to the pet you have then why not let them intervene?
