Anyone else having problem with their archer/commander pet. My pets try to kill eachother or runs away bringing back aggro.

 

[Mr TNT]

lol sorry

 

[ignore]

maybe your pets should ask for a divorce

 

[Blood]

tell your idiotic bonemage to stop hitting his commander all the time, and maybe the commander wouldnt get pissed off at the minion.

(if you have worked in administration, you would easily be able to identify with the frustration the commander experiences.. and when he haves a sword in the hand.. well who would blame him)

Archers are bugged - dont use them till 6 months down the line when Mythic fixes them - plenty of VNU threads mentioned the various problems with Archers - sorry

 

[AzuratMinimus]

It´s really annoying when you´re between lvl 15-18 though, since archer is the only extra pet you can use

Bone Dancers as a whole have pet problems. often the healers (when attacked) run round waving their hands in the air... (much like some bad healers I've grouped with )
sometimes, at the end of a fight, your pet legs it into the distance, and thats the last you see them... and sometimes, they decide they hate each other...

bugged, yes, hilarious... definately.

 

[old.Gromnir]

Have you tried beating them with a stick ?

Strange to think that the bone-army is carnivorous since there's hardly any meat on them.

Found another beautiful bug with bonies: if you get agro most times the pets won't attack the beastie that's chewing on you until you tell them. I think it happens mostly when you have another beastie or object selected.

Have decided archer pets are worse than useless, not including the bugs: You can't get them to used ranged attacks without sending the commander towards something, which actually defeats the purpose of ranged attacks. Pretty stupid game design if you ask me.

 

[old.Spug]

Ah yes, I knew there was a pet I forgot... oh, also the darkness spec. because pets are green to you (at best) generally the spells will be resisted by whatever you're fighting.

apparently most of these issues are still an issue on the US servers, because the BD isnt an alb.

With the new emotes you can actually teach your pets what to do and not. Use /slap /rude and /hug.
I don't bother my healer skelly gets som aggro when he's fleeing, he gives me serious laugh attacks

 

[stafford]

Fafnir sounds like you have a severe case of the 3 stooges syndrome

 

[ajeroth]

Aye, I was a bit upset with my new archer pet, when I discovered that it would sometimes run off into the distance after a combat was over, quite often taking the commander with it. A quick passive/defence sometimes stopped this, but other times only the commander comes back.

I thought, never mind, two levels and I get the tank pet. Even worse...the tank pet decided my commander was the enemy, and shouting 'this one is mine' proceeded to get his bony butt kicked by my commander. I summoned another tank pet..only for it to immediately decide my commander was pure evil.

I had thought to respec to dark, but I hadnt thought about green mage pets being totally resisted with all spells...

I really dont want another 'tapdancer', everyone has one and it looks a bit boring, if easy. Ah well, possible semi-retirement until the pet problem gets sorted then, I suppose.

Jorathe, unfortunate Bone Army spec'd Bonedancer

Does the bonehealer heal groupmembers as well or only summoner and rest of his pets?

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

Only thing I can say for sure is up to lvl18 the buffs and heals from sup pets only work on pets and caster, not group members. I got some peeps to volunteer to take damage so I could test this

I don't know if at higher levels the pets are allowed to share their conc and heals with group.

 

[Cush]

Well imo BD is the biggest load of crap ive tried out so far. Since the damn silly second pet you get keeps running off and hitting another mob then the commander pet. And cus you cant heal the second pet it tend to die and you got a mob on your arse you didnt ask for.

 

[dJyng]

You can heal the other pets just target it

Must work those passive defence buttons hard

 

[Cush]

Guess i was to pissed off at the damn pet always hitting the wrong target that i never even got the ide to heal when i targeted it.. all i did was /slap /rude

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

You can heal other pets that you control but you can't heal other players' pets. Tried this one out too, you get a message saying you can only heal pets you control or if you have them summoned it defaults to healing your commander.

 

[blain]

Tell you what was funny, I duelled my friends hunter last night, and after the duel, we forgot to tell the pets it had finished and everytime either of us put our pets on defensive or aggressive they attacked each other. This went on for about an hour.

bad pets

 

[jammin0o]

bugged to death...literally woo maybe in like decemeber they might give us a patch..maybe a nerf if we are lucky!!
