Creature Handler Archive

My wife and i both play on Ahazi and both have Mch's , we are wondering if anyone else has noticed a little glitchiness with there pets....ours seem to not be able to change targets in combat...if sent on a creature they cannot be told to switch to a secondary target wether it is a lair , a critter or an npc......just wondering if anyone else noticed this happening to them .....seemed to change after the last patch not sure if it was intended but i sure hope not.........Thanks for taking the time to respond it has been puzzling to both of us.

Ive always had to tell them to follow before they would switch targets :/.

" you may now board shuttle while burstrunning, running normally, shuffling, walking, standing, sitting, prone, hopskipping, jumping, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, YOU MAY NOW BOARD SHUTTLE WHILE BREATHING!!!!"

mine will switch targets without me telling it to follow. I just target it and give the command. i guess my pets are unusually loyal. Better give all yours to me before the agro you.

Haven't had any problems withswitching targets. But for some reason every once in awhile mine will do a trick by itself after combat.

Rares I have proudly tamed: Arachne Widow, Grassland Thune Guardian, Great Plains Stalker, Malignant Squill, Prowling Gurreck, Swamp Stalker, true tame Gurreck x2, Mantigrue Screecher, and a Kinad Baz Nitch.

Rares purchased/given to me: Queen Merek Harvester x2, Frenzied Graul, Rhoa Kwi Pack Leader and a Bile-Drenched Quenker...and I will now mourn them all.

my pets have never had a problem switching targets on command, however i have had problems if too close to lairs, at times I cannot change targets no matter what I try, peace, clear clicking anything else nothing will work when this happens.

its been reported and even vert was checking into it.

started happening after the jtl patchwith lairs turning red agro, my guess is if it can happen to me it may happen to your pets too. the lair seems to hold agro and lock you onto it. if using ranged not much you can do if melee you can run away and when u have some distance it will clear.

not sure what will work with pets but the new red agro thing bites for ch, many a baby has been killed do to it.
