Title: Friendly Pet Spell
Post by: Taey on December 20, 2009, 11:15:51 PM
Is the UF lvl 83 spell Friendly Pet broken???

Was messing around in Thalassius for about an hour and it never went off.  Anyone having problems with it?

However, it seems to stack with everything else we have, so you aren't giving anything up when you use it.

Does it by chance heal the designated tank? Then pet would be on mob and heal us if we keep distance and flagged outself as MT?  (which you should do always if merc'ing)  :roll:

Even with pet on one mob and me an another, I still have yet to see it go off.  Do you have to be in a certain range? Does it poof when it procs?

It procs when the pet is hit, not sure of the chance percent.

It fades after 3 procs.

It's a 6k heal that you can't time for the pet.

It's useless.

On test patch notes:
- Friendly pet is now a contact ability that shares a stacking slot with steeltrap jaws and other similar spells. It will fire up to 6 times per cast and has an increased chance to proc.

Woot a new spell already being nerfed so no one will use it ??  ok no one uses steeltrap because you can have it up or the proc that last for ever and now  Friendly pet will be on the same line so we give up our pet proc to let our pet heal 6 times  LAME>

Steeltrap and our regular pet proc stack, meaning Friendly pet and our regular pet proc will also stack. All it means is that you cannot use Steeltrap and Friendly Pet at the same time.

Panic less, read better.

Except steeltrap also blocks the pet snare, so I'm guessing this will as well.
