Annoy the hell out of a Rogue (pet classes only)

[Galdivarn]

This only works if your a Lock or Hunter (and have a pet) - I know this works because I get it done to me all the damn time!!

If your in a battleground and you see a Rogue in the distance heading towards you, (for example in the Eye of the Storm, where you can be at a base and see them coming on thier horse over the bridge etc), target them no matter how far away they are, and sent your pet to attack.

Naturally the Rogue will hit stealth when they get close however for some (really annoying ) reason, as long as you hit attack before they disappear it does'nt seem to register with you pet that they are stealthed, and the pet will still find, intercept and attack them removing thier stealth and leaving them exposed.

Small tip thats the bane of my life

That bug was fixed patches ago... Is it back?
Someone confirm pls

[Seifer]

Yes, it is.

[gtdarkside]

i think its true or all the hunters always have ultra stealth detection on me :S

[Sicco]

Stealth doesn't make pets lose you, Vanish however, Should.

(Thats atleast how it looked last i played a Rogue)

indeed its not working

[Deep]

This was never fixed, Blizzard only fixed it so that pets will stop after a rogue will vanish.

Of course, common sence that a pet can see a rogue stealthing more than 100 yard away.

This work, nuff said

Its supposed to be like a pet sniffing out the enemy, or seeing through their camoflage.
Yes it is intented

[Furrow]

Yeah this is *very* irritating. The bug wasn't ever fixed, and I've reported it so many times.

You can also:
A) sick pet on far away rogue about to stealth
B) as rogue stealths, just send pet to attack something else
C) when pet isnt in combat anymore, he will go attack that stealthed rogue (if he is in attacking range of the pet)

*note* this doesn't work if you change the pet's status (aggressive/defensive/passive) or tell him to follow. you have to let him leave combat by death of target

[Hartge]

Yeah, this was never intended to be fixed, it was working as intended. Only way to get rid of a pet that has been sent on you is to vanish, not too big of a deal imo.

Only bug that was fixed with that was alot of pets completely ignored vanish and stayed on you/the rogue, that is fixed for the most part though.

Best thing to do though if a pet is sent at you from far away, if you notice it, wait for the pet to come to you and just attack it until the hunter/lock recalls their pet or kill it.

This is definitely not the best option for the Arena.
