Thanks. I was leaning toward Soulbeast. I haven't done a lot of PVP so I haven't found the pets to be a problem, just kinda lackluster. I also have a Mirage and a Virtuoso, and their profession mechanics are great. I wish the pets were more interesting.
I'm considering trying both Soulbeast and Untamed out, starting with the first. I think there are enough HPs in HoT and PoF combined to pull that off.
