Game Mechanics: Pet Guard command

[dali_lb]

On live, when you used the /pet guard command, pets would always turn towards the nearest npc. On p99 pet just chooses a random direction to point at.

Actually they didnt just turn to closest pc, they followed it by turning to always face it as it moved by, was very useful actually.

[dali_lb]

not pc ... npc.

yes they followed moving mobs nearby. It used to be usefull when sitting meditating facing one direction and a mob spawn to eg. your left, pet would turn towards it, indicating your mob/named/ph or whatever your camping spawned

One of its many uses: link.

didn't kill a single one, but did as this post said;

"We have used the following method on 4 shawls in a row and spawned Tanik every time. You need to have a pet for this method to work.

1) Pull and kill the two guards at the bottom of the ramp to Kael.

2) Place your pet at the top of the ramp on the North side and set him to /pet guard.

3) Face your pet and run backwards in the direction your pet is facing.

4) You will hit the trigger that spawns Tanik. Hand him the vial after you hail him and go to Thurgadin to get your 4th shawl.

Working on it. I have it working on my test server, but I don't like the way the pet turns. So I gotta work with setting a delta. But I am close to having this feature work. I still need to get on live and check some range info, to see how far away pet will face mobs. But I am getting closer on this.

I used it to find Tanik too.
