-- :: BEASTMASTERY : : --
At 0 BeastMastery (BM), the pet does 35% damage, and at 12 BM it's doing 100% damage. Weapon masteries after 12 do have diminished power increases. 13 has 104%, 14 has 107%, and so on and so forth. It's really just not worth the trouble, the expense, and the drain on your HP to load up to 16 on weapon mastery attributes. BeastMastery seems to follow the pattern, so you should be good at 12 BM, unless you want to crank the most out of your pet heals and attack skills.
Attribute Level --------- Effect on Weapon / Pet Damage
0 --------- 35.60%
1 --------- 38.60%
2 --------- 42.00%
3 --------- 45.90%
4 --------- 50.00%
5 --------- 54.50%
6 --------- 59.50%
7 --------- 64.80%
8 --------- 70.70%
9 --------- 77.10%
10 -------- 84.10%
11 -------- 91.70%
12 -------- 100.00%
13 -------- 104.00%
14 -------- 107.00%
15 -------- 109.00%
16 -------- 110.00%
* TIP: If you use a major rune of beast mastery on a tamer's mask, you'll get +3 BM. Counter the HP loss with a superior vigor rune (or major if you won't miss the 10 HP). Boost your BM up to 9, so that you now have 12 (9+3) BM total. You've just saved yourself 49 attribute points over having brought your BM up to 12 without any modifiers. With the right runes and equipment, you can make yourself quite diverse.
-- :: PET ATTRIBUTES :: --
Hit Points and Armor Level increase per level gain same as a player. Pet Inherit names like: Hearty, Playful, Elder seem to be cosmetic and change based on the level of the pet. Tests are underway to verify this, but these names seem to have no effect on the pet attributes.
Armor Levels:
Level 1 Pet = AL 3
Level 2 Pet = AL 6
Level 3 Pet = AL 9
Level 4 Pet = AL 12
Level 5 Pet = AL 15
Level 6 Pet = AL 18
Level 7 Pet = AL 21
Level 8 Pet = AL 24
Level 9 Pet = AL 27
Level 10 Pet = AL 30
Level 11 Pet = AL 33
Level 12 Pet = AL 36
Level 13 Pet = AL 39
Level 14 Pet = AL 42
Level 15 Pet = AL 45
Level 16 Pet = AL 48
Level 17 Pet = AL 51
Level 18 Pet = AL 54
Level 19 Pet = AL 57
Level 20 Pet = AL 60
Base Damage Output:
Level 1 Pet = 3-5
Level 2 Pet = 4-6
Level 3 Pet = 5-8
Level 5+ Pet = 6-10
* Note that pet damage is tied to your level of Beast Mastery.
The higher your attribute level the greater the pet.
Below are the results of current testing on pet attributes. All pets are level 20, and were tested with 0 to 12 BeastMastery. Although all pets have yet to be tested, it does appear that all pets except the Black Widow are almost exactly the same.
Remember that these tests were performed by humans so there is always a margin of error. Each pet was tested 30 times to get a fair number of attacks/damage and then averaged. Although each pet test may have generated slight variances (less than a second) in the DPS we can average that each pet attacks every 2 seconds. These averages can be applied across the board and provide some basic information.
SUMMARY
Pet Hit Points have not been tested enough to state the results
All Pets of the same experience level have the same Armor Level.
All Pets have a 2 second attack rate
All Pets have a 10% chance for critical hit with a 12 BeastMastery (average 34 damage/per critical, except Black Widow Spider which does 43)
All Pets except Black Widow Spider (which seems to have a 17 ~ 29 range) appear to have a 15 ~ 28 damage range at level 20 with 12 BeastMastery
The Black Widow Spider seems to be the best pet in the game.
Black Bear

.. : Average Damage Per Second .. 10.07
.. : Armor Level ........................... 60
.. : ---------------------------------- BeastMastery -----------------------------

.. : Damage Range ..................... 6 ~ 9 ........... 15 ~ 28
.. : Critical Hit (10% chance) ....... N / A ............ 34
.. : Average Damage Per Hit ........ 7.1 .............. 21.1
* Brutal Mauling appears to have no distinguishable influence on the pet's damage. Seems to just be cosmetic.
Dune Lizard
.. : Average Attack Speed ............ 2.17 sec per attack
.. : Average Damage Per Second .. 10.29
.. : Armor Level ........................... 60
.. : ---------------------------------- BeastMastery -----------------------------
.. : --------------------------------- 0 ----------- 12 -----------------------------
.. : Damage Range ..................... 6 ~ 9 ............ 15 ~ 28

Elder Black Widow

.. : Average Damage Per Second .. 12.256
.. : Armor Level ........................... 60

.. : Critical Hit ........................... 12 ~ 13 (3% chance) ... 43 (10% chance)
.. : Average Damage Per Hit ........ 7.966 .............. 25.333
* Although no 15 or 28 damage hits were made, it may just be luck of the draw -- more tests may need to be run Note that the Prima Guide states that it has a 17-29 damage range
Melandru's Stalker
.. : Average Attack Speed ............ 2.04 sec per attack
.. : Average Damage Per Second .. 10.69
.. : Armor Level ........................... 60
.. : ---------------------------------- BeastMastery -----------------------------
.. : --------------------------------- 0 ----------- 12 -----------------------------
.. : Damage Range ..................... 6 ~ 8 ............ 15 ~ 28
.. : Critical Hit (10% chance) ....... N / A ............. 34
.. : Average Damage Per Hit ........ 7.05 .............. 21.85
Moa Bird
.. : Average Attack Speed ............ 2.032 sec per attack
.. : Average Damage Per Second .. 10.695
.. : Armor Level ...........................60
.. : ---------------------------------- BeastMastery -----------------------------
.. : --------------------------------- 0 ----------- 12 -----------------------------
.. : Damage Range ..................... 5 ~ 9 ............ 15 ~ 24
.. : Critical Hit (10% chance) ....... N / A ............. 32 ~ 35
.. : Average Damage Per Hit ........ 7.166 .............. 21.733
* Unlike the static critical hits we saw on the other pets, the Moa seems to have a bit of a "critical range." Despite the fact that it appears to have a lower maximum damage, the hits in turn seem to be overall more consistent, indicating a tighter damage range and it still cranks out the same average damage and average DPS. The attack speed seems to stick to the 2 second/attack rate like the other pets, so we can dispell the myth of the Moa's rapid attack rate. The speed attack of the Moa Bird is simply cosmetic.
