Absolutely love these for a high-end end-game content boss!

One question that you may know the answer to off the top of your head versus me digging for hours through the code. Could a DeviantAbility be used with a pet?

In theory, you could merge the logic and mechanics of BaseDeviant into BaseCreature to make them available to all creatures, removing BaseDeviant as a result of the merge.

The damage processing should be using indirect target logic, meaning that AOE abilities should not affect anyone who is not actively engaged in the fight, as like with SpellHelper.ValidIndirectTarget.
