As far as the bots, I really hope that they do not make more "pets" for us to control. Considering we already have a pet based ranged dps, i really hope that the bots function more like cooldowns with activatable abilities that can only be used once per bot cast. Something like:

1) Artillery Bot - Places a bot on the ground that lasts for 20 seconds and does x damage over time to a single target. Pressing the cast button again fires a barrage of attacks at a targeted area. 90 sec CD
2) Shield bot - Places a bot on the ground that doubles the effectiveness of all shields placed on nearby party members (adlo/stoneskin/succor) for 10 seconds. Pressing the cast button again places a shield on all nearby party members around the same potency as succor. -120 sec CD
