Hi,


The training of faction pets is done using the converse option NOT the program option.


TOP TIP: If you choose the default droid and faction pet commands for your commands then you wont need to re-train them you can use the 'fressh out of the box' the first time you call them.


Look at faction pet in datapad to see the default commands but a few are:

follow me = follow

store = release

Follow other = chase

Stay = stay

guard = guard

group = group


You should set up macros for each command which are


/tellpet xxxxxxx;


xxxxxxx will be one of the words from above.


To make it very easy to command your pets/droids/faction pets then assign these macros to your number keypad using OPTIONS>KEYMAP and then you just press a number key on the keypad and off they go.

You may no longer have 3 pets a droid and a faction pet out at the same time;unless it has recently been changed back you are only allowed either a faction pet or a droid.And droids are far better than faction pets.

Actually, you can. But the calling order is important.
If I call the faction pet first and then the droid, the 15 second timer starts but as the call time is up I get an error message that I already have the max called of those type of pets. The droid is invisible, but I can hear him. And the option in the datapad is to store him.

If I call the droid first, then the faction pet, everything works.
I was fighting all day yesterday with a CL69 gaping spider hunter, a CL30 droid and a CL20 faction pet.

I will have to try this again when i tried it I had 3 pets and a faction pet out then tried to call a droid and got the same message you already have pet of this type out would exceed your limit or something like that but was a few weeks ago,I posted that it didn't work on the GCW forum and the droid engineer forum as well as here.So maybe a developer saw it and fixed it?

Is there anyway to change the commands the factional pets use? I hold the mouse on them and then click the train option but it doesn't do anything. I need to train a few different commands and am not sure how to do this. I don't get a converse option only a train one, and this one doesn't seem to work. I really don't want to retrain all my pets to match this one.


Thanks,

The radial menu on the faction pets is broken. There is supposed to be a command to converse, but somewhere along the line ofpublishes since the CUit got bugged (suprise suprise )


To train the faction pet, target it and type in /converse. It'll bring up the menu that will let you train commands, along with a few other things. You'll probably have to type in /converse for every command, but it'll work.

The funny thing is I couldn't get /converse to work but /conv worked fine. Also the only command I couldn't figure out how to change through the dialog was the store command
