Prestige Power Buff Pets

[borgking001a]

It would be nice to give the Prestige Power Buff Pets some kind of attack power. I know, I know, they're only for buffing the character!  But at least give them something until you reach a certain level.

They draw enough aggro as it is. If they could attack? They wouldn't last three seconds before you'd have to resummon them.

Id like if the vanity pets got a non-damaging cosmetic "attack". I use the vanguard robot pet on my beam/trapps corr, and it would be cool if it got like missile swarm and a laser or energy blast attack, even if it was client side only.

What is the point of giving a physical pet an attack power when it has like 10 hitpoints at level 1?

 

I got it on exactly 1 character to try it out.  Running through Outbreak, I noticed the thing getting attention and didn't think about it.  Next thing you know, it dies 30 seconds later to another pair of Isolated baddies.  Try again, same results.  Never bothered with it.  

 

If anything, change it to a minor self buff toggle like Leadership/Fighting that has an animation buzzing around you instead of colored shields/arrows.  Targeting Drone anyone?
