Is anyone else having a hard time with the 15 second call timer to call each pet? I have been h aving to drive out to a mission and while everyone else it attacking im spending 15 seconds to call each of my pets and set up to attack. and when its time to move to the next lair it takes 30 seconds before i can even store my pets and then i have to take the time to call all my pets again once i come to the next lair. this is really getting to me. is anyone else not happy with this? Another problem i am having is traveling throught dangerous areas and getting knocked off my bike by some high level creature and then i have to try to kill it on my own without the help of my pets... i mean come on does it take a swordsman 15 seconds to pull out his sword to attack? no. so why does it take 15 seconds for a creature handler to pull out EACH of their weapons to attack? I would be very happy if something could be done about this. maybe make pets fast enough to keep up with a speeder so i dont have to call them each and every time i go to a new lair? anyone else have any ideas on this?

At one time (pre-CU) some pets could keep up with a landspeeder for sure. There have been complaints that nothing can keep up post-CU. I believe you make a VERY valid point when you said "...does it take a swordsman 15 seconds to pull out his sword to attack? no. so why does it take 15 seconds for a creature handler to pull out EACH of their weapons to attack?". I'm not sure but I think you can still set a camp and call pets immediately but that sure is not practical!!!! As to a solution, I would like to be able to call a pet immediately AND let some pets like cat typesbe able to keep up with speeders.

Once long ago there were no timers, they believe ch had an unfair advantage lol
There is a bug right now with camps, set one sit in it for 20 min or so, then leave or disband it and you can call pets and bikes with no timer. The game thinks your still in the camp for about 30min.
