Guild Wars 2

I know this has been asked before, but it seems to only come up on Reddit (going off Google searches) and I’ve no interest in registering for that cesspit, even if the devs seem to spend more time there than here these days.

I recently came back to the game after a six month hiatus and rolled a ranger. So far it’s been a lot of fun except for one small problem – the pet. I stow away the pet when I attempt jumping puzzles or roam around the main cities but as soon as I drop from a ledge greater than a foot in height, my character’s pet reappears again often getting in the way.

A simple hotkey toggle would help (saves me trying to locate the mouse cursor on a busy screen) but a better option would be for a stowed pet to remain stowed until I have specifically used the toggle switch. However, the last time I asked a simple QOL enhancement, Anet made it an ultra-rare 2000+g drop involving mushrooms or something so I’m not too hopeful.
