I lost that on my paladin lol.

Would have really been an upgrade but DK said he needed so :| ah well always next time I suppose.

I would say stick to the wolf, because as much as Warpstalkers are fun, I don't see the point they'd be in dungeons etc since their warp is a self buff, ToS+Bite combo would be the same as just most tenacity pets, outside bear, and Roar of Sacrifice would pretty much be useless by now wouldn't it? I mean if you're having to protect yourself from crits, or the tank, something would be off, methinks.

Warp Stalker was just an example, wasp and whatnot would also work ^^

That trinket isnt even remotly good for a paladin, get 100 emblems, buy the hit / AP / Haste trinkets and you got a better combo, If you are wondering ''Wich one is the best'', i checked EJ, haste is better.

Id say go with what you like. Personally im a huge fan of cunning pets (lovin roar of recovery!) but when I play as bm I cant use them because I miss out on a huge amount of damage. With MM the dps difference between a wolf and a non ideal pet isn't crippling. So if you want a utility pet that helps the rest of the group, or a snazzy pet that you just like the looks of id say go for it!

(But still keep the wolf around in case you need a little bit more pure dps. Never know :3)

Lil, What does beast lore say about its armor rating?

ITS OVER 9000!!!!

Thats the thing..My pets at the moment is King Dred, Aotona, Loque'Nahak and Gondria, none wich i have the ''guts'' to release. How far behind is a Cunning pet VS a Ferocity? is it like 50 DPS? or 500?

imma check! (using http://www.femaledwarf.com/)
with my gear/spec(nobuffs/food/debufs):
4036.19: wolf
3969.55: cat
4004.29: wasp
3983.01: Sporebat
3966.76: windserpent
3819.15: warpstalker
3950.82: tallstrider

Just to name a few

Note that all ferocity pets will be above the tallstrider. Some tenacity pets will be above the warpstalker. My gear is kinda a Terribad mishmash of mm/bm jems, so if your gemming properly the difference might be smaller.
