Creature Handler Archive

I've noticed on several occasions where my pet would get full xp, then just 1 xp or no xp from the same lair even though the fly text was showing 560 xp per kill. Wasn't checking my xp so don't know what happened with it.

Its not so sporadic and a LOT MORE serious for me I have found. I seem to get XP (or rather my creature does pretty consistently for a period, then it just STOPS! Period!

It doesn't matter if I change lairs, change targets, change types of targets, areas or planets or even store and recall. The pet simply gains no more xp at all, it just freezes. So far I have had to log out and back in every time to free up the pet.

This is one major bug for me and frankly a big P.I.T.A

I'll test it with other pets, but so far its effected a CL70 Flea Guard and a CL70 Kubaza. All targets were in range of CL65-85 and on either Tatooine, Mustafar or Dantooine. Obviously pet is ungrouped.

More interestingly, and this may be at the heart of it, examining the combat spam shows no entries for my pet whatsoever. Its shows the damage I am doing and receiving, the damage the mob is doing, but NOTHING with regards to the pets damage. However if I let the pet fight solo, it clearly animates the attack and the mob takes the damage and dies; all with not a single entry in the combat spam. its almost like the xp doesn't register the fact that the pet is in combat, but the combat side of things does.

But its definatley making CH pretty frustrating for me right now.

I have experienced this problem on several occasions. I will be working with the pet and all of the sudden no xp at all and it seems that once that happens, the pet never does gain xp again. It is very frustrating and I am getting closer and closer to dropping CH

Yeah this happens to me a lot. Was working 3 GSP's in a spin group and one of them wasn't levelling. I tried storing it and recalling it, it did not help. I had to store all 3 then recall all 3 and it fixed itself. Wouldn't be so bad if the instant cast pets thing was already implemented, but hopefully this bug will be fixed before the instant cast thing.
