  It's one of the best pets in game. It transfers 6% of the damage you receive to mana. Ofc it eats your MP rapidly, but use Anima Secret Remedy and fishes or frogs...

  Some1 already stated in another thread, it's damage decrease does not stack with DDR nor PKPVP/MOB RES.

  
  

  Assuming a geared player have about 50% pk/pvp and 30% ddr(maybe more depending of class) and 60~80% more res, we can conclude:

  
  

  1) It's not as good as deux pet(5%pk pvp)

  2) For classes with more ddr it is as good  as blackWizard/Concerra pets(3% ddr)

  3) For mobs Ilias pet(7% mob ress) is by far better

  
  

  PS: I tested the pet, before some1 say I'm just speculating.

  I don't know anything about "stacking", but the pet does exactly what it says: shaves off 6% of damage received and diverts it to MP. Example: without pet you receive 1000 dmg to your shield/HP, but with pet you receive 940 dmg to your shield/HP and 60 dmg to your MP.

  
  

  P.S. I tested the pet and I vouch for the data presented!

  My post was not intended to disagree of you but to complement.

  As you stated it does exactly what it says, but lets take a look at what "stacking" means:

  
  

  Assumes a  char without any ddr or pk pvp, usually get hit by 50k crit or more in pvp.

  
  

  Using this pumpkin pet you will receive  6% less damage: 50k * 0.94 = 47k (excellent)

  Using deux pet(5%pkpvp) you will receive 5% less damage: 50k * 0.94 = 48k (worse o.O)

  
  

  Now lets assume a geared player with 50% pkpvp and 30% ddr:

  
  

  Applying the resistances: 50k * 0.50 * 0.70 = 17.500

  
  

  Using this pumpkin pet: 50k * 0.50 * 0.70 * 0.94 = (17.500 * 0.94) = 16.450

  Using deux pet: 50k * 0.45 * 0.70 = 15.750

  
  

  Thats what stacking means, if you have a lot of ddr you will receive more adding more ddr than other stauts, if you have a lot of pkpvp you will receive more adding more pkpvp than other status.

  
  

  PS: Multiplication is commutative: does not matter in which order you apply the resistances the result is the same.
