I would love to know how you slot OWP on untamed

Next xpac, all elites will be detached from their spec

Thanks Anet for a 70% nerf. I love the slow and gradual approach to balance that is nuking a skill from orbit.

I guess that soulbeast was too strong, unlike willbender or harbinger, who need buffs.

Keep up the great work

Yet another tweak clueless Anet jokers nerf it to the point where it becomes absolutely worthless. Now there's no way in hell a power ranger can bring down strong cele metas out there.

This is the crux of the issue. The pet class performs significantly better without a pet because pets have garbage AI. I love micromanaging critters and always had some kind of pet or minion class as my main in every game I played so I'm used to wrangling NPCs with less than stellar controls and pathing but the pets in this game are among the worst I have ever dealt with. I enjoy playing base ranger and untamed in open world but for anything more serious I need to bring out the soulbeast. There's no way to fix that issue without reworking pets.

The issue is the ranger can't have pets that significantly aid the ranger, atleast in pvp modes because the forums and less so reddit would be flooded with ranger pets are op threads as anyone who lost a fight to ranger where the ranger pet significantly effected the outcome the player would immediately log into the forums or reddit to start a pet op thread. Most mmo's have this as well but for some reason gw2 seems to really attract these players, they are new or kno very little about classes thwy don't play and when lose to the other classes claim their op and offer ideas that clearly show their lack of knowledge and/or just want class deleted.

My guess is devs kno this and just want to avoid the annoyance, as they'd just end up having to spend time and resources to neerf the pets continually until the whining stops which results in useless pets. So we may as well just be grateful for the pets as they are unfortunately.

I lost a fight to a thief last month. As he was piling siege on my body, my gazelle ran over to him and downed him just before Lick Wounds was ready.

Considering the amount of vitriol I got in whispers, I can imagine how bad the forums would be if pets were over-buffed.

Besides a few bugs, pets are fine for roaming and small scale. They do, however, need a buff to survivability in zergs.

I've never been as proud of my pet as I was then. Good little AI!
