Beastlord

Barbarian Beastlord (with his pet) with Brick on a Stick from Halls of Honor and Golden Hammer of Divinity from Airplane

What to expect from Beastlords on EZServer (2023):

Beastlords use leather armor and can duel wield weapons. They can use Ninjastrike augments, which gives them a damage proc to increase their dps. What you need to consider before making a Beastlord is if you want to play a pet class and actually use the pet. Beastlords by themselves have quite poor melee damage output. In fact, currently, the pet amounts for almost 50% of the total damage for the Beastlord if you have your Summoner's Pack and Ultimate Long Sword XII. This means if you want to use the Beastlord for increasing the damage of your group(s), you should want to actually summon the pet and use it during combat. Some people prefer to use pets during combat, while some people don't. Just got to figure out how you prefer to play.

The Beastlords epic summons a pet. The strength of the pet depends on what tier epic you currently have. Beastlords are still not commonly considered as a choice for your main group. There are just so many other options that brings you more damage. One advantage to the beastlord pet is its very strong melee damage (no other pet melee hits harder). They dont rely on spell like procs for their damage. These pets also benefit from the damage modifiers on the melee version of the Earring of the Ages, as well as the Shaman spell Ancestral Grudge. Another advantage is the pets tanking capabilities. If you keep the pet healed, a tier 10 pet can easily tank 2-3 of the entrance mobs in Veeshan's Peak.

Primary Uses

• Decent single target DPS with Ninjastrike augments and pet. If you get your Ultimate Weapon and a Summoner's Pack and strive to use the pet while fighting, your Beastlord will be a good dps addition, but they are far from the top melee dps class, the Rogue. If you don't like to manage pets, you are better off dps wise by using a Ranger Berserker or Monk for melee damage.
• Pet DPS and tanking - See Pet Scaling for information on how other EZ items affect them.
• Once you hit T10, make sure you pick up The Plaguebringer's Fist of Reckoning and place Ninjastrike augments in it.
