I don't know if this ha been talked about but i just got my mage pet 4.0 and I'm not happy with it at all. It sticks to you so close you can't see anything or really click on anything because you click him you can't shrink him it's just in the way. Also this isn't a problem but someone may find a way to use it as an exploit the pet warps to a target and then back to you before you would see it run to the target but no it's just warping to it and back again.

Are you running mage as a solo player?  Never seen anyone do that on this server.....

The "warping" is a product of server delay and high pet runspeed. As for the size, is "Hide Companion" not helping after a few casts?

I was noticed this on my mage as well so I immediately logged her off and wont bring her back again.  I also noticed that she is only UC1 so this is another reason to never log her back in unless I am farming POD.

Try using an illusion spell on your pet and then using hide companion. Or a cooler fix would be to just use grow on your mage. then your super tall and screw that little pet hes not in your way, nobody is, your tall.

Been this way since the source update, no idea why. Pets didnt used to try and crawl up your ass like they do now....bastards used to respect your personal space. I think Krincle scares them.

Also noticed hide pet isnt working for crap. Illusion is though. And yeah, still losing perm buffs when I zone the pets.

Odd. Just rebuffed my pet in T8, gated to nexus, no perm buffs. Using RoF2 client, same thing happens with or without mq2 on, have the 070315 spell files.

On the note of pets.  here is some stuff that I noticed during DL

I know the Halloween pets are not ment to be great dps but I was looking at the pet stats since my non-Halloween pets were dying a bit more then I thought they would.  My non Halloween pets were showing -200% for both healing and spell damage (happened on 7/5 but not able to recreate the problem on 7/7 and only really looked at my BL since it was the pet that was dying.  was 6.0 now has 7.0)

With pet movement I noticed that the non-Halloween pets I have teleport from place to place (move to new location but is still facing the same direction.  some times the new location is in the master) and Halloween pets have the normal running movements, keep up with the master and stay the normal pet distance away as they should.

With perm buffs I moved around from zone to zone and only found that illusions were the only thing that fell off.

Client - RoF2
Spell File - 6/9/15

Not sure if any of these problems are just client side but felt I should post what I noticed with pets after being gone for a few months in case there is something wrong with them.

Just tested it, hide companion seems to be working just fine on my T9 mage pet. I would recommend the pet illusion water snake if you want it out of your way. You can also use the illusion and shrink it for a really tiny pet.

It can't be client side because when my pet loses defensive boon while zoning, they lose the 4 mil hp that comes with it. The stonewall isn't showing on the pet buffs screen, not sure if thats just an error in it being reported or if the pets stonewall isn't working.

Flin is alone with the grimoire. I stab it, no wait I backstab it! You can't backstab it, you can't sneak attack an inanimate object. Why not it's prone? It doesn't have a discernible anatomy. It's got a spine doesn't it? *Rolls a 1 and stabs himself.

have you all checked to make sure that you have the aas on the rof2 client? I remember the devs messing with ranks of aas and all kinds of stuff before rof came out so it's possible the source update is going off of whatever crazy stuff they did so you no longer have the aas or a file is messed up

As in Mobility/Minion-Bulwark/???-Bulwark? If so, the pets should recast. If not, I need to edit the code. Either way, permanent buffs fading on zone is noteworthy.
