Well that sounds cool but hopefully our pets don't aggro extra bystanders during a fight cause that would suck.

Not sure if thats entirely related to "ferocity" rating. Some creatures with no ferocity at all will attack others just because they dont like them. (somewhat like opposing faction NPCs work)
It is something that seemed to have stopped happening for quite a while though, I have also noticed that things are doing that again.

It sure is back.....I called me Great Plains Stalker today and as soon as he appeared he bolted off to attack some swarming lesser dewbacks 
I bet they were as surprised as I was
Glad I found this out while it was weaker beasties to kill I would not have wanted that to happen in the middle of some crap on dathomir or endor 
Woo Hoo

As nice as it is to see, I think there ought to be some way to control them with the "stay" command for example. It seems like people have had little success with that. I haven't tested it out yet, I'll have to do that soon.

There appears to be a bug here. Pets quickley become uncontrollable. Does not matte what the ferocity is, have had 0 ferocity pets constantley attack duni that were over 80 meters away while a 9 ferocity pet stayed in formation. The pets are attacking at random. Stay, follow, formation commands are only effective for about 3 seconds, then control is lost again. Have to keep issueing /tellpet follow or formation commands and drag pet into an area that has no moobs for a 100 meter radius to fully control pet. This once again is not based on the pets ferocity, a ferocity 0 pet is behaving the same as a ferocity 5 and ferocity 10.

hmmmm, I don't know. I didn't have any problem with 0 ferocity pet when I was hunting. But that is a BE pet, so I don't know, perhaps that has something to do with it. But yes, while it is cool that our pets might actually start to be acting like wild animals, there does need to be some way we can control them, or calm them down or something. We are CREATURE HANDLERS after all.

The bug is over
GPS ferocity is restored !!!!!
Thank you devs for truly do something about it and fixing this bug with one of our most cherished pets. Have also seen rancors and frenzied grauls ferocity restored as well.
Am glad my bug reports actually accomplished something and now its time to work on getting Frenzied Grauls fixed.
