No, no, no.
First,
I can't believe you even fathom that's what I was saying. I wasn't saying they were available IN COLO. I was saying they were available to anyone just like pets are. You argued that pets were balanced because everyone could have them. I just pointed out another thing that ISN'T in colo that anyone could obtain (available to all) that is far less unbalanced than pets, and IS PROHIBITED in colo.
Let me recap this rather simple exchange for you:
Guy 1: Colo is suppose to try and balance players out
You: It's balanced, because you have access to the same pets others do!
Me: If that's how you define "balance" then we should all get our card and rune stat bonuses as well, since everyone has access to those.
Pretty darn surethat "we should all get our card and rune stat bonuses" makes it patently clear that we DO NOT already get them. Get it through your skull. I was just saying that runes and cards are equally available to are, yet for some reason they're excluded from colo.
In fact, reading through the next few of your posts makes your original argument sound even dumber. You were basically saying that anything available in colo is fair, and it would only be unbalanced if some people couldn't use it in colo. WTH? At the time I thought you were referring to people having equal access to something, but in the end it basically just boils down to "if it's there and anyone can use it, it's fair". Boy is that a simple-minded way to see things.
Neither of your wizard combos are are class on par with either of the class-specific pets combos you gave earlier. A good heal is not OP for a wizard as they have low damage resisitance and low HP. It would not protect them in the way that high HP + dmg resistance + pet heal would protect them as a counter to heavy hitting pet AoE used by a stealth attacker. Eremes would work for them the same as any other class. Where is the OP combo that would either allow them to counter tank+dmg resistance+huge heal or survive stealth+pet AoE, or at the very least give them SOME advantage to on par with what other classes are seeing?
As it stands now, it looks more like you're arguing that pets are balanced because Eremes is equally OP across all classes (as opposed to pets being balanced because all classes have pet combos that help them counter unbalanced pet combos).
As for #2:
Ummm....no, yo obviously can't understand his ESOL. I gave you three instances of how it makes absolutely no sense if he was referring to just Inverse. You can say I have no credibility, but it doesn't change the fact that it's you who can't even remotely justify reading it that way. When your entire argument is dependent on excluding over half of what he wrote it doesn't look very rational. Just give up trying to tie it into this chat, aight?
You're angry, You're taking everything out of context, you must be quite hormonal atm.
I was about to dissect your argument....when I realized you had none. I ended the Embus+Sorc debate a while ago, you're beating a dead horse. I honestly read 3 sentence before I realized you were right back where you started, so TL:DR
So I'll use your favorite tactics against you: Derogatory talk and repetition.
You're an idiot, stop crying, Embus is nothing too advantageous for sorcs. The pet is OP itself moreso than it is for sorcs.

Oh, one last thing: "Guy 1: Colo is suppose to try and balance players out
You: It's balanced, because you have access to the same pets others do!
Me: If that's how you define "balance" then we should all get our card and rune stat bonuses as well, since everyone has access to those."
I almost died laughing. I might as well debate a brick wall for all your ability to absorb new information.
CARD AND RUNES ARE NOT THE SAME AS PETS. PETS ARE ENABLED! RUNES AND CARDS AREN'T. HOW IGNORANT CAN YOU BE, WOMAN?
The reason you have a problem with runes and cards is because cash shoppers would have an advantage, so lets call it as it is: IT ISNT ABOUT COLO AND PETS, ITS YOUR PERSONAL CRUSADE AGAINST CASH SHOPPERS!
Oh, and that first post wasn't even directed to you, but you yelled at me for replying to your post that was directed at someone else. You're an ugly hypocrite!
I bow to your immunity to logic or reason. You are a god among us mortals.
