Miscellaneous: Pet health in group window

[Mike]

As a cleric i have discovered an annoying little issue with the updating of party members pet health.
Under the red bar representing the groupmember health, there is a bit thinner green bar, representing the group members pet health.

If our group is engaged with a mob, and one of the group members pet is tanking, the health bar of the pet will not update accurate.

For instance, if the bar shows 50% health in the group window, when targeting the pet the real hp on the pet is only 30%.
Since i tend to group with two of my friends most of the time, who happens to have just pet classes, this is very annoying.

Anyone else experienced this?
Any ideas?

Yeah I don't trust the pet health bar in my pet window either. I use /pet health to check it and base my heals off of that instead. However, being the cleric, I don't know of a way to ask the pet what his health is. I've never tried. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

This will sound a bit flippant, but every pet class has a pet heal. Let them do it. or tell you when the pet needs heals.
If you have a pet MT'ing, then just keep that pet targeted as if it were a real tank.

Cleric the old fashioned way. Make a button with /assist and tap that to quickly search for people needing a heal that you can't see in your immediate UI. Works on raids, and work on pets too.
