Pet Pathing with Bard Speed

[Noren]

Thought there was a thread about this long ago, but couldn't find it. So...

Pet pathing with bard speed is a little goofy. Pets with >85% run speed buffs tend to run through the mob and then engage on the opposite side. Generally speaking, this results in pets facing the front of the mob and getting riposted to death.

I don't know if it's a client or server side calculation that does pet pathing, so maybe there's no fix possible, but would be great to have pets engage mobs from the side they approach from. Or have pets always behind the mob like melee bots but I won't shoot for the stars on that one.

Also, with bard speed, pets do engage on the proper side if they are sent to attack when already in or near melee range of the mob. It's as if any moderate distance causes them to overshoot their pathing every time.

Thanks for your consideration!

Which client are you using? Also are you using the MQ2fps plugin and the pet classses are minimized/not in focus and your sending them a bct pet attack command? have you tried testing it controlling the pet class directly?

Don;t know if that could be it, but just a thought.

1) Client=Underfoot
2) It's been doing this since before I boxed. So with and without MQ2fps, being my only screen or one of several. Makes no difference.

Do you not get the same behavior?

I get the exact same behavior on Titanium client using no add ons.

It is definitely really annoying.

I never used pets until a few weeks ago when i got the draekon pet =) Was just throwing some ideas out there.

A temp solution would be to block the selos buff from your pet(s). I know you can block buffs on just the pets using the UF client and the pet's buff window, not sure about the other clients though.

Can't block or click off buffs on titanium client.
