I seem to have some confusing memories about the base Pet: DT.
We know all pets have 50% DT by default and that's ok.
But I seem to recall some frames/head combinations had some small additional DT, like Valor Head/Body.
I could find no trace of this on BG wiki. Am I misremembering things then? All combinations have the same default value regardless or what?

Depends on the frame, yes. From the BGWiki guide:
Quote:
PUP gain access to the Stout Servant III Job Trait at lv.98, giving our pets a baseline -DT of 9%
Valoredge Frame & Sharpshot Frame also have a native -PDT/MDT/BDT of 12.5%
Harlequin Frame has a native -PDT/MDT/BDT of 6.25%
Stormwaker Frame has a native -DT of 0%, but instead has -25% MDT & -25% BDT

Guessing those sets aren't up to date for bis?
Thanks Dodik
That doesn't corroborate with these tanking sets I created aeons ago though, something is off.
Avatars, Jug Pets, Luopans and DRG Wyverns all have native 50% DT, so I guess my memory is wrong and Automatons do not get that, and instead get a varying amount depending on frame?

Nevermind, was wrong.
It's wyvern pets that have a native -40% DT, not all pets. Summons also have a native -50% PDT (not DT).
Stout servant page has this info.

This means that through both gear and attachments, you will need 66% Damage Taken to reach the cap.

Dragoon doesn't get this trait but in the Sept 20, 2011 update their wyverns were given damage reduction as their own trait. SE stated that Wyverns have 40% damage reduction whether that is all inclusive or includes this trait isn't currently known.
Avatars have 50% native PDT, so a level 95 SMN's avatar would have 50% PDT and 7% DT.
Pets cap at 87.5% damage taken, unlike players who have a 50% cap from the damage taken I category, and only a few jobs have access to damage taken II.

Yeah, that makes sense with the sets I made all those years ago. Which page did you get that quote from btw?
So yeah, Automatons get no "innate DT" but they get a small amount depending on frame, then 9% from Stout Servant, and the rest has to come from Attachments or Gear.
Pffff, so many years passed I forgot.
Yeah noticed that part about Avatars, being PDT and not DT.
Luopans do get 50% innate DT though.
