    More than 3 charges would be a bit much. What would be a better solution is to introduce a way to further reduce the time for a charge to recharge.

    Beastmaster is a unbalanced right now. Because the pet now has increased damage it also has increased enmity and attract the attention of foes more often. Some have mentioned that the pets are two squishy. The actual case is that they're now taking more damage than typical. The pets need a buff to durability. Introducing some new food or gear that offers, DT, BDT, PDT, and MDT for the pet would be much welcomed. New COR rolls that focus on the pet, especially the pets durability, would also be welcomed.

    With the news that empyrean gear will now be reforged to the 119 level, I have hope that the bst empyrean pants will give more to stout servant that is currently available. This would begin the buff to the pet's durability, but I'm sure it won't be the end.

    Idk more recharge reduction would end up being more powerful than more charges. As is it's already possible to get it down to 10 second recast... you go much lower and you'd see a couple of bsts pets non stop skillchaining...

    Speaking of that gear you should see the sets I'm working on .

    And yeah reforged legs makes me feel 2 ways... if it's just the 2% well I already can do much better while getting other pet stats. If it's higher well it will save me some money maybe

    Only a handful of NMs will actually pose a problem for pet survivability. As long as pet is not face tanking the NM full time, you usually have enough time to get Reward back up (52s recast). With 7k~10k fangs on some fights Tiger is pumping out 40k~60k damage per min on some NMs but a well geared DNC/THF can usually rip hate and buy you some time. Those RNG-Only fights might be another issue though. I haven't done any on BST, but (correct me if Im wrong) decoy shot tranfers enmity to the PLD, this would pretty much mean pet is only taking damage from AOEs right? assuming PLD+RNG combo can keep hate. I know moderately geared, Fang does ~2.5k~3.7k to VD Arks every ~10s how does RNG damage compared to that?
