In your opinion, which pets are the best for leveling? I keep hearing boars are, but they dont really hit hard. Any thoughts?

Boar and bear for leveling.

Boars are best for twink pvping, not for leveling. You can't go wrong with cats, and there are several nice
looking
cats you can tame at around 20, like humar the pridelord (he roars!)or the
ghost saber
in darkshore.
They are pretty reliable for dps and protecting you from those big bad elites you come across, plus at level 32 you can teach them dash, speedy cat!
Thanks. I recently got my hands on a ghost saber. Took 9 of those stupid figurines to summon one, and he almost killed me. :)

Did I miss something here? When did boars lose out to dps pets for level grinding? +9% AR and +4% HP accounts for a lot. More dmg mitigation = less downtime between mobs. Not to mention boars can tank multiples like frikken champions. Someone mentioned Gore as well, which is very nice pet ability. I used Bellygrub for the longest time and she rocked the socks off of my cat when it came to solo grinding quests/levels.
Bears I can somewhat understand, not having a movement speed ability. But their dmg mitigation bonuses are just as nice for tanking mobs and reducing downtime.
I find that the DPS decrease on boars makes them hold aggro far worse than a cat/raptor/ravager. The thing about boars is Charge, but that becomes marginal once those other pets can learn Dash.
I'm not understanding. Are you not training growl? Boars can learn dash as well, though I still prefer Charge. It has a greater speed increase, as well as a nice stun. Just don't send you're pet in from 100 yards away.
I stand my ground: boars/bears for leveling (solo'ing), purty dps pets for instancing and PvP.

Well I got myself a bear for the thunder stomp + swipe and it can't seem to hold aggro for the old AoE grind. I am thinking of just getting a DPS pet see if killing them one at a time is fast than AoE killing then trying to get my pet to peel em off me once I snag aggro.
