SOE We are all really broken now.  From what I've seen in groups and raids the appove is true.I know you won't do this, but I'd like to go back to the way we were.  I like the models better and the way our pets worked.It really is a shame.  I was really excited about this update too.  It sounded great, but it is truelly messed up now.WilderbeastLvl 57 Conj<div></div>

<DIV>seems BP will trigger off of a  CA/skill that the pet does or when it gets hit  does not trigger off every melee hit as it should.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>tank pet taunting maybe hit or miss some reporting its fine otyhers saying its not.have seen  aggro get ripped from pet  from one spell perhaps   taunts maybe be resited.</DIV>

This just happened - I'm a lvl 21 conjurer and suddenly lost  Niksel's robe of summoning (item for summoner lvl 9). It's in my backpack, but I can't equip it. Says 'You (sic!) class can't equip that item'. So I'm now running around nekkid in very unfriendly territory. Hope this gets fixed quickly. <div></div>

My earth pet had a tough time holding aggro when I went up against low green heroics.  It seemed to occur mainly if my swarm pets dissapeared - at that point, I always drew aggro.  I think this is partially due to BP acting oddly, EV not working at all, and taunts not working as well as they should. <div></div>

<P>on top of all those bugs, pet still go all the way around when u move across the steps where warclaws are in silent city</P> <P>and sancutary the templar stun immune spell still fears our pet</P> <P>was hoping these would have been fixed in lu18...</P> <P> </P>

Hmmm, this is a real pity, generally speaking the summoner changes were done in good faith by SOE so I appreciate that. BUT, the fact that some of our key spells are bugged and most worrying of all the myrmidon taunts have been improved but are still not working properly is a REAL worry. Please follow our example and /petition this in game as well as on the test/feedback board. Hopefully we can get this amended sooner rather than later, all patches have subsequent hotfixes for various reasons, if we are vociferious enough about these problems they will be addressed quickly. If we sit back , they will not. <div></div>

Petition?! Come on they dont work and you know it.There bugs people thats all. They arent intentional and will be fixed. Just follow the usual /bug and reply to a thread in the forums about it. Publishes always have broken things in them. Stuff that wasnt either caught on Test Center (because it might have worked there), missed by QA (theres a lot to check), or just went buggy because the moon wasnt in alignment with Mars.So put down the pitchforks, use the tools that you have available to you, walk slowly away from the computer. And help to get them fixed instead of inciting a flame war<div></div>

I'm glad to know it's not just me.  My air pet kept running off in Poet's last night.  I haven't soloed yet, but if my tank pet acts like the air pet did, I could be in for some interesting battles.

I was pretty disappointed to log in and find these bugs. I hope they get fixed today as this pretty much breaks the pet classes. Sad not even an acknowledgement of the issue. It is also disappointing that it wasn't caught in their internal QA kind of killed the whole frostfell update for me. Drevva

There is a new bug with the new summon servant spell also. Not sure if its doing it to all pets, but every time I would summon my earth pet (adept 3) avenger, he would totally disappear. He is there, you can see his name above his head, but there is no model showing for him at all. he is now completely invisible except for his nametag. <div></div>

[fodder6]

Did this start happening to you today? Because last night that pet worked fine for a whole lot of us<div></div>

Last time I logged off at level 13 I had a tellurian recruit.  Now I have a tellurian follower, even though the spell is still labeled recruit.  It can't follow me anywhere.  It got stuck somewhere in Antonica twice in just 5 minutes of game play.  I logged off and don't plan to log in again until this is fixed.   If this is "working as intended", meaning level 13 app II pets are supposed to be too stupid to follow me, then I'll just cancel my account.  This is absurd. <div></div>
