So last night I was taking on a Jedi mark in the starport of Kashyyyk. I had my three narglatches out and I found that I could only get 2 of the 3 to respond to my /tellpet commands. I noticed this both when I tried to group and when I ordered them to attack. Repeated use of the /tellpet attack had only two of the pets attacking. This could be a random fluke or I wonder if it's something specific to Kashyyyk. Anyone else experience anything similar recently?

Yes I have seen random weirdness from my sisters, but I was on Corellia. They all seem to attack the same target, but sometimes one of them just runs off for no reason. Sometimes I can't get one of them to follow me. And they don't take on my combat level (54) when I group with them.

I have had a problem like this on another server onKashyyk 2 pets would attack while the 3rd just sat there. After storing the 2 pets that could attack it looked like something else from a distance had aggro'd my 3rd pet because it was in attack mode but just standing there. I relogged and he was fine.

To clarify even more, my situation was slightly different. I couldn't even get my third pet to go into combat. The other two had their icons flashing red for combat but not the third. I've had weirdness with pets running off and not responding to commands exactly before but this was the first time that a pet won't ever go into combat.

On talus i can only have 2 pets join my group however i have been able to have them enter battle.

Had exactly the same problem, also on Corellia, tonight. It's inconsistent, and doesn't happen all the time, but it did happen a few times.

Hiya peeps. Had the same prob on Naboo last night (UK time) Even threatened them with a rolled up newspaper but one out of three wouldn't respond or group. Bad cats! Again, it happened every now and then so never knew how many would attack. Maybe they've nerfed it so it makes the game more exciting? no.. maybe not.

Been on the 4th-5th levels of the Ryyatt trail yet? It just gets worse the deeper you get on the trail. The Canopy sometimes just eats your pet and you cant find or store it.

Pure CH Hell.....every other MOB gets stuck in a "cannot see" spot and the pets wont attack anything else. Its not even worth pulling pets down there, which pretty much squashed my pull tactics. Big time pathing issues there.

Avoid the trail till its fixed if you need your pets in combat.

I’m thinking this has to be a bug, cuz last night none of my hot keyed pet commands worked. I had to manually type them out. I didn’t put forth any test; instead I just called it a night.

Yes i did check the syntax of my commands.

Yes all pets are bound to same orders

my 2-cents

I had two cats and a bot out and couldn't get all three to group....just the first two of any combination I put out there. My three all have their own attack commands and that worked....just one wasn't ever in the group.

I believe this is a major bug in the system. I have had this problem on all planets, in many different forms. Sometime one will attack while the other 2 that are co-located dont move an inch. I dont hunt with multiple pets anymore... I take out my highest level pet and hunt with it. Watch the combat tab sometimes and you will see that low level pets dont hit high level mobs... Having 3 low level pets not hit a high level mob is a bad idea.

Watch the combat tab and see which of your pets hit the hardest and hunt with it...

Even with one pet I still often find that my one pet is agroed but not attacking... I usually need to have him follow me and then reissue my attack command...

The computer seems to get confuzedif I issue my pet an attack command, then follow command, then attack command...
