Animal Handling & Grouping (and some random thoughts)

[Vyanie]

You can gear up to have a pet tanking, just not any of them, and it won't be the best tank. See my post: https://forum.projectgorgon.com/show...ll=1#post11175.

you say this, but as someone who has all pieces of gear setup for pet, a lvl 60 hissy cant even do well in goblin dungeon, sure 1 at a time vs a solo goblin if you can hopefully bodypull before pet gets stupid and dives into a room full of mobs, problem is... pets are beyond retarded, you fight 5 mobs it hits each mob 1 time each and cycles through them all instead of focusing, you have no way to EVER force it to focus one target, try out the red area with a pet.... you cant. pet hits crystal 1 time then spins around being stupid and waiting to die instead of hitting the ONE thing that you want it to attack. As i said before all of my gear is pet focused, i have 2 pieces that also add knife fighting to include pet, KF has outdamaged pet since lvl 20, pet refused to even keep attacking mobs, hits once ... then runs back to you and wont attack again unless you order it like 5 times to attack, by then you are dead because pet aggro is so wonky you can stand next to pet and do NOTHING and you still gain aggro over your pet. Add in the fact if you do manage to kill something pet continues to attack a dead body for 5-10 seconds making you count as still in combat so you cant regen power, slowing you, or your party down to a crawl, and if a miracle happens and your pet attacks then it dies... ok well yeah you can revive, I have a 42% chance to revive pet.... 27 kits later im running back to a town to pay to have a the stupid thing revived. thats not just bad rng, considering it costs a kit it should be 100%. If for some reason the stars align and it doesnt die and attacks something then... ohh wait you doing NOTHING and the mob comes after you... even with your pet doing +200% aggro for its damage and your not doing anything except maybe a single wild endurance and the initial sic em, ok cool this ability called get it off me, does nothing except switch your pet from assist to guard mode (contrary to what it says) or doesn't even do that if for some reason your pet is 20.01 meters away but it DOES waste power and go on CD just like every other ability
