Before the curb, they , the devs, refered to "crowd contol". I remeber posting a thread asking wth that was..tonight it became somewhat apparent.

i was in the shadowlands with a pistoleer/ranger, and we were killing those gurks with the fancy new name..lvl78-79

i was using my pre cu dna, post ch razor with 10k health and 550 dam, although it never hits for that...lvl59

the pets effectively seperate the mobs, so you can kill one at a time..the instant you type attack the mob charges the pet, leaving the rest of the mob behind. in the event of multiple aggros the pet can hold aggro, hold, not tank, while you kill the other..of course the average wild pet will not last, the semi uber be pets will go down, if not managed correctly. once you assume aggro the pet will not take another hit, and will actually regenerate, whileincreasing your dps..

so ch's role seems to be to assist seperating the mobs..many time the line of sight was buggy tonight and we couldn't fire..i felt very helpless with just a pet..lol

the pet can hold a mob off you while you dispatch multiple aggro's

i guess this is crowd control

having a pistoleer/ ranger was nice, as pet drew out target, she would trap and stop shot..i would hit hard with the rifle..very effective
