Thread: another one bites the dust...although I'm giving myself an escape clause :D
you don't have to keep a line to keep the pets in your datapad I believe. A friend of mine was hanging on to my pets when I dropped MCH, and even though she dropped CH completely still has 10 pets in the pad, that's after giving back 3 of them to me.
I must say that I am quite happy for you! You're doing what I've wanted to do for oh so long, but lacked the courage to do so: un-gimp myself. Fencer/MCH and I never used my pets in PvP due to the fact that I'd have to pay for their suckiness by having their stats begin to plummet after dying so many times and losing vitality..now I've double-gimped myself in PvP by going Swordsman/MCH, though I like the dominance I hold in PvE 
I like that vitality loss is being removed from PvP, though, because then I can at least use my fuh-reaking pets on folks without really worrying about paying the unfair price of having them begin to suck worse...
As for hopscotch-playing screechers and bull rannies, don't be silly..the BE rancor I made could probably take on both at once and win 
Heck, I bet my BE gnort could do that, too
You can completely unlearn CH and still keep all your pets in your datapad.
