Melee pet 'gap closers'

[kelika2]

Short range teleporting attacks

Just a few ideas

Bruiser:  The bruiser generates a cone attack on activation and appears near its target, uses the psi melee hop/chop attack.  call it charge or whatever

Zombies: Lurch, short range teleport, smashing damage and/or whatever flair side damage, toxic, neg, etc.  and you can use a reversed zombie brawl animation for a downward looking attack

Grave Knights: either copied the bruiser but with a sword or disappears and reappears using negative energy, can be pbaoe on landing

Wolves: lunge, lethal damage with a dot, -speed on enemy, etc

Lions: pounce, pbaoe lethal/smashing on landing

Ninjas: Flash Step.  smashing for genin, lethal for jounin, fire for oni.  yeah, teleporting behind your enemy anime trope

Demons: same concept as ninjas under another name (netherwalk, shadowstep, whatever) and more damage types per pet

 

-- debatable --

Spec Ops: Takedown, with some options

if buttstroke, another smashing stun attack

if bayonet, lethal dot 

if taser, energy/stun

 

Pets with low numbers of attacks such as the demonlings or zombie horde will really benefit from another attack

Ooo, Spring Attack/Savage Leap for henchmen, I like it!  I've recently come to really appreciate attacks that can plop you on a target (even if the attack by itself isn't that potent), and having them on minions who otherwise don't have ranged options would be quite helpful.
