The Hidden Forest

I was wondering if it would be possible to decrease the melee range on mage earth pets. Currently, if you use an earth pet with a bot then the bot always gets aggro. This kind of makes earth pets useless. The reason the bot gets aggro, is because the melee range of earth pets is larger than that of a bot. Since earth pets root their target, and rooted npc's attack the nearest target to them, you can see where this is a problem.

Due to root, having a decreased melee range shouldn't really be too big of an issue I don't think. Earth pets don't have to do much chasing or getting in range because of it.

There is no field in the database to set the melee range of any npc so im afraid we can't do that.

the melee reach of npc/pet is model/size dependent, you may try to shrink your pet to reduce its reach... this MAy work

otherwise not much we can do about it.

From my experience shrinking will alleviate the problem.
