"Rogean: Distance check re-added for Pet Attack"

why... just why....???? all this does is make life more difficult for the casual player. Quarm looking nicer and nicer......

[Senn]

Yeah, if the pet is now greater than 200 clicks from the mob, you cannot send it to attack the mob. Using /pet attack or the hotbars.

<edit> If the pet is greater than 200 clicks away from a mob, it will also not assist you if you get attacked.


What a great way to drive the nail in the coffin.

For the current servers, it means nothing. This is because Blue and Green are in their final timeline state already.

These fixes would go into effect when a new server is launched. Then that feature won't be enabled on the newly launched server until the Oct 1999 patch comes out on the new server.

Is there clarification on pet tracking on whether this is a "classic" change or if it is a "we have a major problem with hate scripted pet tracking by two individuals and this is our unclassic change to try to fix that like the Lifetap and recharge nerf"?

Best thread I could find related to whether it's classic or not..

"If I can't pet track I can't have fun here in any conceivable way!!"

Pet tracking deserved to be nerfed and I support it. What is or isn't "classic" is a nebulous concept because of emergent player behavior that did not exist in 1999. If a change makes the server feel more classic because it disallows an emergent player behavior which itself is unclassic, that's a good thing.
