I've still not seen all that much -PDT gear around though. And I believe the augmented one for example was applied AFTER your initial 50% avatar PDT was removed. so 100 damage turns into 50 damage and then you might remove 5% from that, which is more like 2 damage than 5 damage.
If your solo and you'll need to recast melee is a poor idea unless you do less damage than a single Blood pact rage can do, chances are you'll pull too much hate for a fresh avatar to take quick enough to save you, and if your in a party who cares if your avatar dies call a new one. I said pointless not useless as in yes you can have a slightly longer lasting pet but will it change the fight enough to justify stacking it?
