Hi, I am hoping you can give a definitive answer on how necros work on Phoenix.

Are stat suits required here to achieve max. pet HP when summoning a pet? Does the following apply here? Here is info from Postcount:
http://www.postcount.net/forum/showthread.php?2996-Necromancer-Information-and-Tips

What transfers to the pet?

Base stats from the necro do not transfer since the pet has its own base stats. Buffs do not transfer (int adds to the shade's power pool which the pet draws from).

The following bonuses from items DO transfer:

Con, +con cap, hits, +hits cap (summoning suit, see below)
Dex, +dex cap (fighting suit, see below)
Int, +int cap, +power, + %power all increase the shade's power pool which the pet draws from
Resists from items

Also, is there a difference in necro pets at 50? Some people say Abom is best, others say Greater Servant casts faster. Is the lesser mez immune here or is that a later patch? No one can give a clear answer to anything and search doesnt get me anywhere on this forum.

Thanks

The only special pet is abomination with cold resists and cold DD proc, the rest of the pets are just a different skin with same stats.
No pet casts faster than others and there is no mezz immun pet, just different skins and thats it.

Your template basically transfers 1:1 to the pet (con/hp while summoning, rest on the fly, but I have all cap anyways)

For buff calculations:
The pet has its own stats, so your starting stats or buffs won't be transfered (pet stats is 60 str/dex/con/quick I think).
Pet cast damage is calculated using your (shade) int value, so thats the only buff effecting the pet while casted on the shade.
