How hard are pets critting in the beta?

[Protego]

I've been seeing some extreme numbers of how really hard pets are hitting, on MMO-Champion. I thought I'd ask here. How hard are pets critting in the Cataclysm beta? Thank you very much.

I have heard that pets are hitting for roughly 16k (or 16,000. Whichever you prefer!), and up to 20k with Kill Command. I haven't done it myself, however, but I have a Test Realm copy pending on my hunter, so I'll be seeing very soon!

While not the beta, I can give you some ptr numbers. Geared in ICC hard mode gear, unbuffed on a boss target as BM using a devilsaur I'm getting 20k kill command crits, maxing around 30k with BW and procs. Bite is criting for 8-10k, with 14-16k crits under BW. I have noticed that I have yet to get a non crit kill command in either testing or heroic runs. Not going to complain about that. The numbers are looking really good for us. Hopefully they stay close to what they are when 4.0 goes live.

At level 80, in my BM hunter's 80 end game gear (avg ilvl around 245ish), my devilsaur was critting quest mobs in Vash'jir (sp) for around 10k or so.

Now while the crits are very large you must understand that by the time you hit 85 you will have lost around 40%+ crit rating.
Interestingly though, with pet talents giving pets 9% crit and the 1 to 1 ratio of crit from there master. Pets actually have higher crit chance then there masters.

Checking recount im seeing 38k Claws from my 84 spirit beast.
35k Kill Commands
6500 melee

Mind you that was just a 5 min rotation on a level 80 target dummy.

Looking at my overall my pet seems to have a 30-40% crit rate on all its attacks.
Considering I have 19.8% crit at 84 and 3/3 spiders bite my pet should be just under 30% crit.

While leveling, 20-25k Kill command crits were common (when it did crit, for awhile pet's crit% was abtssmal). Now at 85 I'm seeing 30-35k KC crits, much bigger in dungeons and/or with CDs blown (Remember, BW is 50% pet dmg increase, so 50% of 30k is 15k= 45k KC crits ). Granted, this was before the recent pet update and I was using a devilsaur with the original Monstrous Bite. I'd love to do more testing with Raptors, Serpents, etc, but any new pets I tame vanish on server restarts no matter what.
