Pet Buffs Question

[talian21]

Is there a way to tell the buffs on your pet? I have Intensify Death now for my skellie pet (yay) and I'm trying to figure out a way to know if it's still on. I'm sure I get a message when it comes off, but that's the kind of thing easily missed in a fast moving group/lotsa fighting. Is there a better way? Any buffs I can put on myself, I can just put on him same time, and thus use my own buff as a sort of timer for his, but things like pet haste, or buffs someone gave him and not me (like str) I can't find a way to keep track of it. Any suggestions?

unfortunately there is no way to know what buffs your pet currently has, and such info was not added till much later than the current timeline. may not ever hit this server (can't remember when it was added, and can't be bothered looking it up atm)

/pet report health

in theory it's supposed to show it

I seem to recall this being implemented in the Luclin era, but I could be wrong

Either way, as it stands you just keep an eye on how often your pet is hitting and then recast it. It's not super-critical to have it up 100% of the time. You start to get a feel for how long it lasts after a while.

Later pets, you won't even want to use it (agaisnt some mobs) for fear of your pet outDPSing your dots.
