Runs should usually need to be 2 days for  to become the best burst pet.

Longer runs are still possible, but try to limit yourself to 7 days max if you burst with .

Refer to the Desolator Guide if you need more details.

Check his scaling formulae to understand. Still, even with 7d of levelling you can expect only an ~e1 improvement so it's not particularly worth it).

*Note:* There are no changes to the BiS from enchant level 5 to at least around level 30. Albeit there are some additional optimisations that can be done depending on mysts and pet (check the main guide).
