Well i guess for meits official, this profession is now shot. Pet auto store in the midst of battle pretty much means CH isnt viable for anything.

are you really having it happen THAT often? all pets running from everything always is a much bigger issue than autostore because it happens ALL THE TIME.

I've had this problem myself. Sometimes a pet will disappear for no reason, but not during battle most of the time. I also have problems with my blurrg in Coronet, it gets stuck on the archways.

I've had my pets do that a few times recently, but tonight the stupid things kept dropping their targets. I'd have them attack something, then I would attack, then they'd just stop. No reason at all, just stop attacking and I've have to tell them multiple times to attack the target before they would again. Annoying!

Got the problem of the disappearing pet also. This autostore bug costs me loads of camping sites needed to get the pets out of the datapad again. Also they stop following for no reason. This problem seems to be introduced by the latest patch.

Only had the autostore problem once or twice, both times after I was incapped, while I was waiting to get up. Pet was not in combat at the time. Far more annoying, though,is having my pets just stop attacking things for no particular reason. Quite often, they will run off, and then suddenly one or both will show up at my side, while whatever creature we were fighting is still sitting off 100+maway, till it suddenly shows back up, and taps the back of my head against the nearest hard odject. They will do this in group settings quite often also.

i have this with speeders and pets. it's irritating as he!! trying to level up in ch and having to stop every couple of attacks so i can build a camp and recall my creature.
this is with a CH on eclipse. i'm guessing all servers have the same problems.

20 minute period last night outside of Bestine, attacking some 20 stormtroopers in the middle of the desert
Less than 30 seconds into battle, pet autostores, death for me
Less than 45 seconds into battle, game crashes, death for me, pet has stored at some point
Less than 55 seconds into battle, pet autostores, death for me
Fourth time, I actually kill everything before he stores again.
Happened no less than 5 times in the next 3 hours while I was on other various planets.
So, yes, it's that often. Is it a bigger concern than the "RUN AWAY!!!!" bug? Who knows. At least I can spam "/tellpet kill" and it will not vanish on me. That keeps both of us alive. And when you're in the middle of playing in rancor alley, that’s slightly important.

It's been happening way to often to me since the patch. I been killed 2x in combat and had to run for my life a couple times also. That on top of pets running away, not following, and standing right on top of youreally makes the profession more aggravating then it is fun. For the first time, I seriously considered giving it up and looking at other alternatives. I guess I must have entered somewhere around 15 to 20 bug reports over the weekend....
