I have a newbie CH question, that might have already been addressed here many times, but I did not see it posted in the issues or in a post. Please forgive me if I missed it. I'm a new CH, and I'll admit first off that this is a Holo prof for me. But, I tend to prefer to actually learn my professions and have fun with them and that's the spirit in which I am posting here today. As I've started to get a handle on the profession and see how it works, (I'm 1,1,1,1 atm) I have a question concerning the amount of pets you can have out at once.
Now, I see at Novice CH, Management 3, and Master CH we get Additional Pets +1. This from what I understand will give us 3 pets max at Master level. I believe the way this is listed creates alot of confusion for new players like myself and needs to be corrected. Bear with me for a moment please.
Every player out there who isn't a CH can call 1 pet. This is their non-CH pet/mount that they use. Everyone can do this. So, as a Novice CH, I see in my new skill box that I have +1 Additional Pets. To me this implies that I can have 2 pets out at once as a novice CH as long as the creature levels are within my limitations. Well it's pretty obvious you're not going to really have anything useful at that level with 2 pets out so I never gave it much thought. But now, that I'm 1,1,1,1 and my CL is 20 it got me to thinking. I should be able to call 2 pets at once. It certainly implies this.
I'm not here to debate the amount of controllable pets. I just think there should be some clairity on this. If we cannot have 2 pets at Novice CH, then the Additional Pets +1 is very misleading and should be removed from the Novice CH skill box.
I'm curious as to everyone else's thoughts on the subject. It's a minor gripe, but I feel it's something that needs to be addressed for new CH players like myself.

I agree it is misleading. It should say "# of pets called" or something to that effect. It was confusing to me too as a newb.
But hey we are CH and are given lots of misinformation. You will soon find out your pets are bugged and run from everything. BlunderHead will tell you they are cowards. You will tell RuinedSabre that pets running is game breaking and he will tell you that the Nerf was first priority and fixing you was not. They will infer that they care but actually ignore you. They will take your money while they try to figure out how to make you quit.
