Idea: @70. If solo allow 2 bots in group, group still only 1

I'm a wizard and in new zones 70+ I have some trouble keeping my pali from dying (he has stillmoon gear, I farmed with guild).

For those of us without uber pets like Mages, Bst, Nec, etc.. i doubt this is an issue.
Does it make sense to let solo'ers or non-pet class to have access to 2 bots? (and the logic with groups will stay the same)...

might be a horrible idea but thought i'd ask if anyone else cared.

Personally I don't like this idea. There are current ways to deal with this such as grouping or just changing your tactics and/or hunting grounds (for instance the mobs in Chardok do not summon and can be rooted, blast away!)

Again, perhaps my timezone is to blame but I do not see people grouping often. At least not actively looking for random people to group with. Not complaining, just stating an observation.

Choosing to run a wizard solo(ish) was pretty brave. I have done it on other servers and you have to be pretty clever about where and what you hunt until you are geared enough to have more options. You may find better luck doing some of the 'normal' zones. Sticky suggested Chardok and it's not a bad zone since as he said the mobs can be rooted. Personally, I prefer a LOT more room to run around as a wizard if I'm soloing but to each his own. This has nothing to do with your OP...just sayin'. Choosing one of the most difficult classes to solo well and then saying that it's hard seems...logical. Not being able to keep a pally tank alive easily without a healer also seems logical.


As to the specific topic...

I personally would not use 2 bots and I do not use any now, however I don't see how it would be a terrible thing to allow.
