Level 40 Paladin Pet

[Myedved]

<DIV>Hi,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>My wife plays a paladin, and she recently bought a 'pet' skill from the paladin trainer. It creates a squire humanoid. It also came with a button bar with attack, defnd yourself, defend me, ect. While exploring this pet, it really doesn't seem to do anything. Is it just fluff, or does it have a use?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks for any replies</DIV>

<DIV>Its a fluff pet just runs around with ya nothing more. Will attack if enemy hits with an area attack  , dies quickly too. Also I want to know why squires are only men squires now.I like the female squires far better than the men squires.</DIV>

In a nutshell - there's nothing that sucks more than the squire. Nothing. Except maybe ... nah there's nothing that sucks more.

well in pvp it can be used to confuse things abit, /petname <yourname>, but other than that, they just get in the way.a guildie had his pet gazer harm touched a week or 2 ago, that was funny!<div></div>

I'll have to remember that.</P> <P>Back to the post - you think that a glowing hand is worse than a guy that you call to come over and hang out, staring mobs to death while you fight? Besides, I kinda like the fact that my hand looks like it was stuck in a thermo-nuclear reactor. Oh wait, no I don't, that spell sucketh too. </P> <P> </P>

If it gets hit doesn't it fight back? People use aoe's in pvp all the time, wouldn't that cause the squire to defend itself against the attacker?

[Wulfborne]

<DIV>As stated above, all he does is draw sword, get "angry face" and stare the offender to death.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I have heard of the occasional rumor of one riposting an attack, but have never actually seen it happen.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>~Sir Hawke Holyblayde, Hero of Maj'Dul</DIV>

[Shaidown]

<P>that's slightly odd....my 'fun' wizzie pet that I get (cat, book, flying snake) will attack a mob if it gets hit by an AoE.....</P> <P>now...my AA bonus pet wont.....but ive actually been saved by my flying snake as i aggro'd a mob, it AOEd before I had a chance to run....I ran anyway, but my snake stayed and fought until its (LOW) health was gone</P> <P>now that's something</P> <P> </P> <P>(although, my AA gargoyle pet beat a lvl 35 assassin in a duel)</P> <P> </P> <P> </P>
