I’m pretty tired of my pet running after everything and agroing bosses. I spend more time mashing my F3 key telling my pet to calm down, than actually dpsing. Would be nice if I could turn the pet off if I wanted to.

Go ahead and insert how I’m a bad player and I should l2p or whatever. Don’t care. It should still be an option.

In the ranger CDI this as brought up again and again. Basically the answer was that this would take too much effort and time to change rangers in this way.

Anet only wants rangers to use pets, this will never be just archers. That’s what I gathered from the CDI… Rangers will stay just the same as wows model.

The only way Ranger is going to change in regards to the pet mechanic, in my opinion, is going to be through a future Specialization that replaces it.

RNG is a bell curve. Better hope you’re on the right side.

Eh, besides too much work the stance Anet took was that the pet is the core feature of the ranger, their gimmick is having a pet so they’re stuck with it.

I’d rather see Point Blank Shot permanently stowed.

Fire up the Hyperbowl ma, we’re going to town!

Would you like some hard cheeze with your sad whine?

Rumor has it that the option will be available to you in the expansion to deactivate your pet and will get damage bonus in compensation.

Now this is just a rumor I’ve heard from a guy that heard it from another guy in WvW.

The only reason I might believe it is that WvW rumors are often true

Maybe you can dig and try find an official statement somewhere.

The ability to stow a pet permanently is the single most often requested thing on these forums.

The blanket response has been “the ranger is THE pet profession. we know it’s broken – live with it.”

While I would love to see it, I can’t honestly see Anet doing it.

Hey Anet how about giving Rangers something? Either let us stow our pets or remove that God awful name and health bar that won’t disappear above that pet? I mean you force us to have it out AND you force us to see it’s name and health bar even when we’ve turned off all other name plates. Please fix what would be a fun class.
