I'm going to put this poll up. I want my pet window back. I don't care that it isn't classic. The internet I have now isn't classic either, and there isn't a download speed limiter installed where we all have to run at 56k dial-up speed and spend 5 minutes zoning in and out. The pet window isn't game-breaking, it isn't ruining my immersion in the experience, it's just a quality of life improvement that we enjoyed. There are a lot of bugs, including with spells and quests, that could have been tended to but instead the game was worsened by doing this.

I'm not going to play for a while, hopefully they'll change their minds and revert it back. I understand those wanting an authentic experience, but not everything about the original experience was good. Don't run off the player base you have.

Yes you can make hotkeys, I've already done so and it's not difficult. That's not the point. The pet window is better. Am I capable of digging a hole to go to the bathroom in outside my back door, yes I am. Do I want to over using a toilet? No, because we have toilets and why not use them.

Note: I don't feed trolls, so don't bother. If you want to waste your time browsing a forum to shoot down people's ideas, you're too sad for me to punch down at anyway.

Makes a post crying about changes he doesnt like then calls out trolls pre emptively. . .

What if i told you you’re the troll

I didn’t realise how much this would influence me until I realised that without pet window I have no pet health bar. I was contemplating mage necro and enchanter for green but not any more. I don’t want to play pet classes now.

That’s okay. I’m not demanding they revert the changes since this is obviously something they feel strongly about, but I wanted to at least voice that I am at least one person who now doesn’t want to play a pet class anymore.

Appreciate the server still. Thank you.

It is classic, there was no pet window. They are working with Titanium client because Sony erased classic, iirc. Wait until the team figures out how to bypass/alter titanium to get the correct night blindness back that we haven't had..
ever wonder why there are torches and lanterns in the game? hint: its not for pet weaponry.

The elves will rejoice though.

Just think, at some point the Devs talked about removing Pet Windows and limiting Hot Bars, and I'm sure there was talk about how pissed off everyone would be.

They still decided to implement it regardless of how their playerbase felt, and how many people would leave because they greatly reduced the playability of the game that people have been playing for years now.

People can harp on the "OMG ITS CLASSIC" bs, but that argument is becoming ridiculous. This server is not classic. It's not even close. Yeah, its got that "classic feel", but it is not classic, and this change doesn't make people say "OMG No pet window, and limited hotbars!! I totally have to play that server!!". It actually just alienates the playerbase and makes them choose to play other games. (incoming people yelling "It's not classic, its beta for classic, blah blah blah)

I'm sure the timing was thought about based on Green "launching" next month. "Well, we can piss everyone off by making that change we had talked about, but it will be negated a month later when we release green. And that is why the patch notes also included another hint that Green is coming next month. This is a pretty big mis-step in keeping players at the same time WoW Classic came out and players are already leaving.

I made a new mage yesterday to check it out. I made hotkeys for /pet attack, /pet back and /pet follow.
Those worked OK for the kobold camps and stuff in the Gnome beginner area. I couldn't check my pet's health at a glance but had to target her/him/ve/(pronounce of choice).
I can see where it is going to be a female dog on my necro but will work with it or not. I can play my monk or ranger if I need game.

You can make a button or type "/pet health" at anytime to see the health

You can see pet health anytime with "/pet health" and make a button for it... or build it into your buttons for the other commands.

For me it's not a "clicking pet commands issue" it's knowing when to heal my pet without needing to CLICK ON MY PET and then tabing back to the mob(s) or gate if shit is going south too fast. Furthermore, why the hell does it seem like so many people care so much who uses clicks for controlling their pet? If you don't like it then just use hot keys and turn off the pet window. What's wrong with personal preference, and why must you force your will on every one else?

Rogean/Nilbog have stated many times that they don't care if you play or not, they're going to recreate classic EverQuest as best they can. Your cries of "but my pet window/hotbars" are falling on deaf ears. Adjust or move on. I hear Classic WoW is out.
