[WL] pet

[mickeye]

Quick question regarding WL pet. I remember some time ago speed of pets were slightly increased compared to pets speed on live. I doubt that’s still case, actually it feels quite opposite. To be frank, pet seems to be less reliable than ever, despawning and reappearing, unable to catch pet owner most of the time etc.

Any chance to speed up pet by just a little bit, say 5%? When the pet was a bit faster, WL gameplay felt much more fluent and seamless.

P.S: By the way I found quite amusing I have to use proxy server to post on this forum, because all my providers have IP adresses on blacklist.

Alas! Azarael abandoned us to our digital nightmare, our Sisyphean torture, cute, smart gobbos and annoying, pelt-clad hillbillies alike...

Please put an end to the pet mating season, it is only a matter of time before the birth of the Squion... they too horny!

I know what you mean. Pet while on mount doesnt work really well.
The problems with despawning and reapearring has nothing to do with balancing. This is a bug and i hope it gets fixed anytime soon when devs have time for it.
Those problems making the pet in a worser situation than on live

Actually I was quite happy with reliability of Coordinated Strike for example. It worked quite well. But now, you have to wait way too many GCDs before your pet gets to your target. It really screw up any chance for suprise attack, if you're pouncing to you target fist, instead sending pet beforehand.

Oh poor white lion...your pet is too slow...
As a magus who have to resummon its pink horror until it eventually show the elemental debuff necessary to deal basic damage, I feel sorry for you...
not.

Sure, came here trolling. You already started thread about Magus, don't polute others. Thanks.

I don't think the WL pet actually desummons, I've noticed that each time this happens if I begin attacking an enemy the pet does eventually turn up about 3-8 seconds? After I hit something, and when it turns up it is directly on the enemy.

Maybe it is just a visual bug?

[mickeye]

Yeah it's visual bug, but it's quite annoying. WL is burst or bust, and key factor of that is Coordinated Strike which can't be done when pet is randomly strolling 100ft away.

Just to be clear, I don't think WL need any sort of buffs right now, just a fix of the pet. Unless devs implement Trivial Blows and armor would inflate with everyone in Sovereign, WL will be quite ok. Still no incoming heal debuff but w/e.
