Dang It My Pet is Unruly.........

[IcedAng]

<DIV>I am a level 51 Necro with Adept III Rotting Thrall.  I go To Sinking sands, and go inside croc caves, my pet takes the hell off, I tell him to attack and he is no where to be found.  Mob is attacking I have no help, he finally comes back when I am done fighting.  Not only that, there is nothing worse than to be standing there fighting, get done fighting, you and your pet are just standing there, then all of a sudden, he takes off and hits a mob for no reason.  What is up with this???  I know other Necro's and Conjurer's as well that are having the same problem with their pets.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Anyone got an idea on this???</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<P>I can tell you exactly what the issue is. It's not the pet, it's the pathing in this area. It's completely stupid, and seriously needs looked at by Sony. I'm normally not a detractor of this company, as I really enjoy this game overall, but this is a pretty basic thing that shouldn't have made it out of beta imo.</P> <P> </P> <P> </P>

Im a 50 necro with adpt3 thrall as well and experience this quiet often. I wish we could charge the debt from it to Sony. <div></div>

<P>- First of, in the croc cave, it is a pathing issue that makes the pet run of. It happends everytime in that area.</P> <P>- Second, your pet runs of to attack a target when you have asked him to attack it, but not given him the command to stop again. An examble, you send in your pet to attack, but before he engage the battle, you ask him to attack something else without first giving him the hold command. Now, after killing what you send him to kill second, he will run of and attack the target you asked him to attack first.</P>

No thats not it, I just pull my pet out, and I sat down to rearrange my hotbar, I hadn't taken anything off the hotbar yet, was looking at my choices , then my pet goes and attacks a mob, I had not, told it to attack anything yet.  I remember when it was doing as you stated before, and SoE said they would address that issue, so Im fully aware of that, I raised my necro from level 1, I didnt buy my necro, and not know how to play her (not saying you implied that, just stating for clarification)  Not to mention when my pet runs off and it takes 30 seconds to come back, wherever he is, there is no way, when I cant even see him, to tell him to attack something where he is at the moment, he just runs back trailing mobs behind him. Because now u are suupose to be near, in the line of sight of or be able to get to the mob to make your pet attack them.  If my pet is out the cave door out of my sight, clearly I cannot click on a mob thru the cave wall and tell him to attack it.  My conjuror friend is having same trouble.  So it's not just me. <p>Message Edited by IcedAngel on <span class=date_text>09-29-2005</span> <span class=time_text>02:46 AM</span>
