found this on a Mage site, that also has a write up on pets in general:
Quote:
Shields/two-handers: At a certain point in your pet-summoning life, magician pets will stop equipping shield and two-handers. This happens at a point (sometime in the 20s/30s) where the pet realizes that a two-hander or a shield would severely hamper his DPS by not letting him dual-wield. As a result, he won't equip any two-handers or shields, simply letting them rot in his inventory or destroying them.
