If pineapple pizza be wrong - I don't want to be right!

I remade my old thug/pain master and play her as a healbot that throws thugs at the highest valued target that needs to drop when the party is ignoring them (cough, cough, freakshow chiefs). I'm only 35, I could redo the character without too much suffering, and so I need to wonder - is pain the most effective heal secondary for a master, or should I chose something else? As for thugs I feel like as flavored as they are for a vigilante, they are genuinely the lowest tier of pets, given their lack of resistances and small health pools. It's fun to scream "Bar fight!" and start a gang war every five minutes, but would I benefit from changing my flavor a little to something like maybe mercenaries? My end goal is the same - healbot with some damage to send pets after someone in a pinch and otherwise stay in bodyguard mode to give an extended health bar to myself.
