Title: Pet disappearing? Post by: maldarr on October 22, 2014, 09:13:49 pm I apologize if this has been answered (nothing showed in my search for it).
I've been away from playing awhile. I noticed that my pet will disappear, and I think it is because I am too far away from him(?) For instance, sending him to attack a mob that poisons, running out of range of the poison AE, pet goes poof. I see a message that says something like "(Pet name) has been lost to the immaterium." Can I assume there is a range limit for pets now? Thanks! Title: Re: Pet disappearing? Post by: Darpey on October 22, 2014, 09:21:20 pm You assume correctly. New code was put in a few weeks or a month ago with the intent of eliminating pet based exploits (e.g. pulling Tserrina to the Zonein of ToFS, or "chaining" to pull NPCs far across the zone)
Gotta stay close to pet now or he poofs Title: Re: Pet disappearing? Post by: Krinkle on October 22, 2014, 09:35:00 pm Thats all that change has effected for me is things like the poison ae or other things that you normally use pets for, it messes all that up but hasnt changed any mob that I know of that large numbers of people usually pet pull and ive tested quite a few mobs.
Also the Changes in the new dungeons that prevent you from shrinking through the rocks, I dont think there was anyone at all skipping through the essence dropping trash and exploiting through rocks to get through the dungeon quicker. All that change has done is prevent people from getting to finish their instance when it gets bugged, and I see that happen to at least one person every day. Dont mean to just complain because alot of the new changes recently have been awesome, but those two have not stopped any exploit or bad behavior that I know of theyve only hindered normal play.
