Works great in pvm. Working as intended.
Why would you need a bird that runs as fast as an exodus in pvm? You arent chasing monsters. Had to be looked over.Works great in pvm. Working as intended.
How else is your pet supposed to fight Exodus while he is chasing you on horseback? duh!
Cause I can
Was brought up pre publish. They didn't do anything. It's a phoenix.
Yea, that would have been the case (or 5 frenzied ostards) but they fixed that when they made pets automatically increase to +1 follower as soon as you "imbue" abilities, stats, or skills on the pet.
He may not be on my list of favorites, but I do value his opinions dealing with anything PvP.
Dex is not capped. The cap is for stamina.
It was stamina that was capped thankfully. Dex affects movement speed, stamina the rate of attack.
Well technically, it wouldn't matter if stamina was capped then... pets can't attack faster than 1.25s (just like players) which is reached with only 90 stamina... thus increasing stamina beyond 90 only serves as a buffer to taking damage before dropping swing-rate.
Anyone who defends the Phoenix depends on it and can't play without a crutch
Well if you don't actually pvp- maybe it is best not to give your input- especially with your test being with a different creature.And if he does, we can all secretly laugh and point at him
LOL no just kidding...seriously PvP damage is reduced to 30%....me and some friends tested this on TC putting Armor Ignore and Dismount and such on pets and attacking each other.
I think it took his Cu about 10 minutes to dismount me....and if you're gonna stand there and let some pet beat on you for 10 minutes...that's on you
I don't think you have anything to worry about....just don't look at the Blood Fox! He's hella fast too...not as lethal...yet!
Crazy that I want balance, I know. I at least post to nerf templates that I main when they are overpowered. Bet you can't say the same.
Bird slayer Talisman? DUH!
Counter to what exactly? And what is the counter for the phoenix?
You got me, the Phoenix makes my pvm thunter tamer soooooooooo OP. When I am face to face with a frost dragon the phoenix CRUSHES my foes. When they try to slowly run away, my birds 600 dex allows it to keep up with even the slowest opponent!
What are you talking about? what does a treasure map have anything to do with pvp?
Sorry you are so slow, but you inferred that I must be reliant on the bird if I defend its use. If my tamer is my thunter, what are the odds I would be using a bird to pvm?What are you talking about? what does a treasure map have anything to do with pvp?
How so? explainYes it would!
But you provide no evidence it will affect PvP but you want to nerf it, just in case it does. Who needs this
It goes with the person who has not even seen a pet in Fel. But still is complaining.
I did already. Post number 32.
If you are trying to get to a place you want to play the game and your pet has higher dex. It can keep up with you better. It will still run slower than you , but the closer the pet is the more likely it will not get hung on a tree or rock.
Seems like a very minor issue. Once you get to your destination, It is not going to make a difference. You're pet will perform just as well.
The situation you describe is not accurate. A Phoenix is a 4 slot animal that does not start with dismount. The tamer would have to increase it to a 5 slot meaning they cannot be mounted unless a gargoyle flying.
You can ride a mount and use them as a dismount pet. Gargoyle not necessary.
I wouldn't call 240 skill heavily invested these days. Let me just offer you something to consider, an archer tamer in group pvp.
I fought it yesterday. So, yes it is accurate. The tamer was on an Ethy.
won't be the first time.Actually, it's Stamina that affects movement speed of creatures/NPCs. Hence why when you seriously damage them, and they take a lot of Stamina damage as a result, they slow down immensely. You can also see this with the Fencing Mastery "Pierce", which damages their Stamina by up to 40% of their max Stam over 10 secs. They can be at 95%+ Health then, but 0-10% Stamina, and move slow as hell.
Pets reach 1.25 attack speed at 150 Stamina. Compare the attack speed of GD at 125 Stamina, against a new pet with 150 Stamina. The 150 Stam pet will attack slightly faster. Back when Rune Beetles could reach 180+ Stamina via Bless, they'd attack at the same speed as when they had 150+ Stam, but would move faster.
Yes.. off base...Please tell me they're not going to nerf yet another pet ? I get it, you don't want pets to be able to damage players in pvp, for whatever reason. But why is it players can still take out pets with the greatest of ease ? I would much rather see something along the lines of , and this is going to sound stupid I"m sure, but some kind of invulnerability of pets from damage by players, and the same reversed. It's my opinion that players shouldnt be able to attack tamed pets, they shouldn't. And the same goes for pets, they shouldn't obey an All Kill that then targets a player..period. I don't know maybe I'm off base
Well thanks for the clarification. I assumed movement was tied to dex since attack rate was determined by stam. I am unfortunately not all knowing.
Dex effects Parry chance , Healing Speed & Maximum movement speed for pets
Use "all kill" not "all follow", this is about pets vs players... not pets "following" players, and yes... there is a difference. path-finding is much better when a pet is told to "kill" as oppose to follow.
They moved faster because their Dex went up with bless...
