Question about boar pets (Gaar/Sudo!)

Post by **Fenz** » 28 Feb 2006, 11:51

When they get dash and you let them attack do they use dash first and then use charge when they get near their target automaticly?

I am using pethelper btw. You can let the pet dash on attack but I want the pet to use charge always too. Is that possible?

ANSWER!11

hmm just read this:

Well, I decided it was a pretty borked pet skill after all. (especially considering the boar is such a low-damage pet)

Boar can't charge outside of 25 yards anyway, and it shares the cooldown with Dash.

Even when he does charge, the stun/imobilise is so short its hardly noticeable, and the AP bonus is a once per fight
thing, unless of course you use it to grab an unexpected add in a longish (+25 sec) battle.
(plenty of other ways to deal with that regardless)

In Pvp, not sure how it could even be useful to dismount/stop/interrupt someone unless they ran right over the top
of you and you were standing there waiting for it, 25 yards is pretty short range.

So, /wave goodbye to piggy, and back to cat, flapper and wolf.

Shame, and all just MHO of course.

The shared CD on charge/dash sucks.

Hunters have a lonely life, we talk a lot to ourself. Or to our pet, not that it will respond..

boars are good tanks, but yea the shared timer makes having both pointless. read somewhere next patch will have pigs in plaguelands, with a high dash or charge (8 or something).

I read that on test the boar dashes first and then charges when he gets close to the target. Need to confirm that tho.

what I noticed the other day, is that when I dueled psythe my boar randomly charged totems when cooldown was up.. am afraid he might charge other ones to that have me on the agrolist like people that are sheeped or sapped. nice that he kills totems, but scary that I can't controll it..

when my pig is attacking an enemy, and the enemy gets sheeped, my pig backs off automatically. I gues your pig is just dumb

No, a while back the changed it for all pets that they stop breaking any cc automatically that includes sheep/scattershot etc when your pet is on passive. Broken atm on test though i read

prolly a bug.
