I really think you misunderstood what was posted Haynar.
Pets have never had this short attack range on live servers

The range at which pets attack mobs on live is 200. That is not standing on top of a mob. So never is now. So you are incorrect.
The mob can be anywhere in the zone, for you to add the mob to the pet's aggro list. When the mob gets within range 200, pet will go chase it down.
Pet will hold any mob on it's aggro list, if you tell it to attack, until that mob is dead or you issue a pet back off.
The mechanics are working the same as live.
The range it was previously for pets to attack was 250. That was to do anything. If mob was >250, the pet ignored the attack command, and would never attack.
The system currently in place is far superior to what it was.
I have no plans to make changes, so you can sit 400 or 500 range, away from a mob and have the pet attack.
I was asked to look at pet mechanics. I looked at them. I found them lacking. I improved them greatly. Making pet classes more over powered, so they can sit half way across the zone while their pets kill things, is not on my agenda.
