Pet IO "set" bonus spitball thread

[kelika2]

What if all pet/mastermind IOs were auras?

Before I begin, a pet aura IO right now is something like Sovereign Right: Resistance Bonus. You slot it, your pets benefit if they are in range of you

Now, in my head there are two things going on with this idea.

 

Take for example these two enhancements:

Commanding Presence:  Acc/Dmg + 5% pet recovery aura

Commanding Presence: Acc/Dmg/End + 10% pet movement speed aura

If both are slotted in the same power, you the player will get a two-piece set bonus.  Meanwhile your pets will get those two bonuses as an aura from you.

 

Reminder that auras go away when you the mastermind are too far away/untouchable/etc

Also before you say this is OP there are only so many pet slots, and the enhancement stats/aura bonus wont probably sync up to be super awesome frankenslottable combos.

 

Please keep in mind this is just a spitball thread, between 2 mm sets, 2 pet rech sets, 7 pet damage sets and like 60ish enhancements I will not be thinking of every enhancement/potential aura bonus imaginable

Between positional defenses, typed resistances, raw damage, acc, health, maxend, knockback protection, etc there is a lot to work with or even think about

And I just became aware that this probably would require all pet enhancements to become unique

There was another idea I had that sorta used the PvP set bonuses mechanic to work just on pets

For those that do not know, PvP sets are sets that have 2 set bonuses per tier, one is on all the time, the other only activates in pvp zones

 

2 piece bonus would effect you, but an added effect that just effected your pets in the form of an aura.

 

i was going to flesh out this idea more but my head started to hurt trying to come up with the words to describe more clearly that a two two piece bonus with two effects being efffffffff

If we can't just have pets inherit all non-proc set bonuses, I guess this would be the next logical step, which would allow creation of a new enhancement set type for the pet buff powers.
