Should be a common sense forum =)

[Maq-]

Ok, I understand this completely falls under the "Common Sense" rule, but I see so many people on my realm not doing it, just wanted to point something out with locks. Everyone who's a pet class and 70 knows that it's sometimes a pain to have the pet running below you, catching aggro on some mobs, etc. Hunters don't have it so bad, as they can call a pet without the use of a shard, but it gets to be a pain as a lock, dismissing the pet and summoning it again when needed. This also kinda applies to hunters, because, unless they've changed it since I played my hunter, when you dismiss the pet, it pisses it off, and you have to waste food gaining the mood again.

Anyways, the thing i've noticed locks doing is actually dismissing a pet before mounting. All you need to do is take a second to mount up and fly straight up. Once you hit a certian height, the pet will despawn, and you get the shard back, as you when taking a flight path.

That way, no wasted shards, or food.

And go ahead and pipe all flames to /dev/null, as I stated, it should be common sense, but that sense isn't so common somtimes.. So just wanted to give a heads up =)

to tell you the truth, i never thought of this. maybe Im just a bad hunter.:wave:

if a lock dismisses his pet u still get a shard... if u a hunter and dont have flying mount just set pet to stand and run away from it. then it dismisses.

I've never received a shard when dismissing a demon. And yeah, having a pet stand still would be the same thing as flying straight up, getting over x yards away will dismiss it. =)

Ye! that should be commn sence! but never realy though about, great +rep!

Yup, this is true. You just need to be "x" distance away from pet, and it'll despawn. This method is also handy while in instances, where you need to get rid of a pet b/c you're jumping down, and the pet would bring the whole instance after your group (as it takes the long way) -- Instead of dismissing, just have it stand still, jump down, then get the shard back, instead of spending a new one after dismissing.. And, I did try again to see if they've changed it, locks don't get a shard back when manually dismissing it (as stated a few posts above this reply)

or u can just make your pet stand still and u run forward for 5 seconds, that will dismiss ur pet aswell.. easier than mounting.. then flying up.
