Pet holding agro
 

Im sure this have been brought up, but im doing phinny allmost every day atm, and recently when you send a pet on him he summons you for no reason in the middle of the fight, no casts on pet or phinny at all, and there was no resummons yet.

This cant be right?

yea something is wrong, you cant chain pets without getting aggro anymore. This is clearly not classic, as you should never get aggro if you dont heal your pet/cast on mob your pet is fighting.

My little pinky told me this has to do with certain guilds owning plane of sky with pet classes. but what do I know?!

That might be true, but that kinda ruin the game for the rest off the server if thats the only reason :)

There was not a consensus to unclassically nerf pet classes. Pet aggro is just a system that needs additional work and feedback put into it.

"get a trivial amount of agro", not "never get agro". Sick of people posting misinformation about this.

The mob knows your there if you sent a pet to attack it and you ARE on the hate list. There should NEVER be a way to attack a mob without it knowing you are attacking it, this includes using a pet.

Yes that is true, but without doing anything to the monsters it should not just agro you out of the blue should it? :)

Correct... sort of.

This is probably the worst example but let's say you send your pet to attack and your pet misses it's first couple swings and you sit down. Your on the hate list by virtue of your pet being in agro range and since sitting cause more agro than a missed swing the mob will come after you.

Now combine that with the changes that they are working with pets generating a lower percentage of agro than players.

Don't get me wrong, I realize that things are a little borked.

But I am still seeing mages pull with their level 1 nuke and sending the pet to attack before the mage gets hit and it works!. In fact I saw this yesterday, multiple times. This was a fire pet not an earth pet. Had to be the level 44 pet spell.

Hmm, with my necro I have sent my pet to attack and had the mob start running to me first. I will attempt to recreate and document this.. The agro for pets is most certainly off by a noticeable amount.

yea problem is right now theres aggro transfered to the mage after a pet dies or does damage, I do not know exactly how it works. But after a couple rounds of chain petting, the mob will forget any pets thats on it and will go straight for the mages.

This happen after maybe 4 or 5 chain summoned pets. I believe it should stay ad vitam eternam on pets as long as a) theres still pets on it b) you didnt "sit" or did anything but summoning pets. Thats the classic chain petting.

Well for me today at phinny, i didnt pull, i was just standing at max range and send pet, before the petever died, phinny summoned me and i had to run out of hes range, after that i did chain summon pets like 4 times and didnt get a single summon after that, so there is something wrong atm, just not sure what exactly it is, maybe that the pets dammage goes on the pet owners agro list? not sure tho.
