Beastlord

Beastlords can use Ninjastrike augs, which gives them relatively high single target DPS. Their epic summons a pet, which further increases their dps. They were not commonly considered as a choice for a main group, but recent changes to the class and pet have made them quite a viable DPS choice. One advantage to the beastlord pet is its very strong melee damage (no pet 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.

Primary Uses
