So, I understand pets have been buffed in game. 

Has their damage output improved and their survivability?  Any details on this is greatly appreciated.

I don't know what measure might be used to compare their damage output and survivality, the most I can do is link you this video I recorded using mostly just pets http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6s7meEHnpSY sorry if it's not what you were looking for.

It helps but i am unable to view youtube from here.  I will check it out later.

But, can the two wolves from the Beastial framework take down a minion by themselves?

Also, can the summoned wolf from the primal sorcery summoning solo a minion as well?

...minion or henchman, whatever the lowbie, single health bar mobs are called.

Dunno why would you do that but yeah why not.

Well, my wife loves pets and she wants to use the remaining points she has from Archery and put them into getting those two sets of wolves...those three wolves (from the two power choices) would handle the minions while she focuses on the villain or archvillain.

The pets from Command Animals have a taunt power, they might not last as long as other pets.
