Game Mechanics: Range check to Pet DS change applies to ALL Pet messages

[Man0warr]

Haynar: Fixed non-melee damage (i.e. damage shield) from pets, to now be sent to their owner. Added a range check to these messages, so owner has to be close by.

This changes has been applied to ALL messages from pets, not just damage shields. I can't see my pet's melee unless I'm right up close to where they are fighting.

As an enchanter, I like to stay as far away as possible in case of charm breaks, but I want to see hits so I can gauge what level my charmed pet is.

So either fix it so that it only applies to damage shields like the above patch note says, or increase all messages to AT LEAST max spell casting range.

Seriously? Ur telling me to "fix it" per you demands?

Be happy to implement your request, $75/hr, 3 hr minimum. If you are up for it, I will post a paypal link you can donate to.

Have a nice day. I look forward to doing business with you.

I'm not demanding anything - check your eyes. Leave it broken for all I care.

I just listed two possible solutions, don't be so defensive.

You trying to troll your own guild? Trying to convince people that BDA really is full of retards like the R&F folk would have us believe? Lol.

What the hell are you talking about? I am posting a legitimate bug not some troll.

You are telling a developer that volunteer's his free time his "options" and what he should do. Decisions and changes are not based on what players tell us to do, it's based on research towards making the server as classic as possible.

If you provide research that goes against a change, we will look at it and make a decision on if it can and should be changed.

It says in the patch notes that this range change was meant to apply to Damage Shields - it is applying to all pet melee, pet messages, etc. It has nothing to do with being classic or not in this case.

Do you need me to post screenshots or something? It's not like it's hard to recreate.

I've seen several people complaining about it in other parts of the forum so I went ahead and made a bug post to alert the developers so they can fix it whenever they feel like. I presented the two most logical ways to fix the problem, but do whatever you want.

Your last paragraph hassled the Hoff a bit.

[Man0warr]

It doesn't say "Either fix it or else", it says "Fix it this way or this way".

I gave the only two possible solutions to the problem.

Stop forcing your forum play style you filthy Bregan
