Squig Herder pets with their CD to increase pet damage and Morale that also increases pet damage is insanely overpowered and it just hits way too hard. Im watching Squig Herders 1 tap people in T2/T3 and pretty much 1 tap people at 40.

Sh pets should be balanced on both ends.
They should not be murderous machine gun ignoring los and pathing
Also they should be not annoyance to manage, randomly despawn, stuck, require tactic to last 5 sec while running mounted.
Fix both or dont touch them at all

I wish they would make sh pets more of a supporting role instead of the main damage dealer. Atm they deal more damage than the actual sh and ignore certain walls and all kinds of rubbish.

The SH pet should have been nerfed together with the WL pet. However, they did no nerf it because it was only the mdps overhaul.

And WL don't even have the enrage and m1 boost abilities. Nor do they have the 50% AA boost for the pet. Yet it got nerfed and SHs could keep their unnerfed pet. So yes, it is too strong.

Just look up characters like

Check their killing damage to damage ratio.

The first class that needs to be nerfed as a priority is the SW. We’ll see about the rest after that.
