Controlling pets

[dprantl]

With one of the updates, controlling pets has become a huge exercise in frustration. Pets will frequently stop attacking what you tell them and just walk away. And it's not like they aren't wonderfully happy, and I have way more taming/lore than I need (120/120). IMO this is retarded, if I tell them to kill something, they better well do it. I understand this would be ok if the pet was unhappy because it was not fed or because I didn't have enough taming/lore skill to control it properly, but that's not the case here. What makes it even worse is it happens very very frequently. Usually within 30 second at least one pet will start to walk off into the weeds like a retard that just lost its short-term memory. Please change that aspect back to the way it was before.

That was the patch, not the shard.

It happened to me on demise yesterday.

Huh, actually, (here) it was a change squirrel did. It makes killing bosses / hard critters quite a PITA. Not like I use my tamer anymore though, but I know how its annoying.

I could change it back, figured I'd make it like OSI but we arnt OSI clone after all. (mobs attack tamer not pet on OSI - here it's 10% chance per damage hit)

Oh. I could have sworn it was the patch since it was happening to me on Demise.

If it really is like that on OSI, then that's just stupid. I mean it's not any harder for me, I just have to spam all kill all the time, which makes me look like a retard
