Guild Wars 2

so I did some testing this evening and I found out that superior runes of the ranger does not work for mesmers. I was little sadden by this. I started thinking about rangers and their pets and the functionality they serve and tried to compare that to mesmer clones. Specifically the qualities that that would identify a companion(the 6 piece bonus is +5% while you have a companion). Both are essential to the classes’ fighting mechanics. Both do have HP. One is only out during a battle and the other can be called out even when not in battle(I don’t think this would eliminate from being a companion). Rangers can call out any pets they gathered while mesmer is restricted to the weapons they are using(again, I don’t this this quality should eliminate clones from being considered a companion). Now I’m not familiar with rangers too much so there might be qualities of a ranger pet that would better qualify the pets for being a companion when compared to a mesmer clone. If that is the case then hopefully someone can let me know ^.^ and please don’t mention how it says rune of the ranger. Runes of the mesmer 6 piece says for +33% daze duration and i’m pretty sure that isn’t limited to only mesmers.

It’s actually bugged to always be active, even if you don’t have clones. Also tested on guardian a few weeks ago and it was active once you put on the 6th rune.
