Guild Wars 2

While playing as a ranger i find i swap my pets out a lot, but each time i swap them the names reset.
Does anybody know some way to get the pet names to save, and if not do people agree that this should be updated into the game?

This is a known bug

Hmm my ranger’s pet names don’t reset, ever.

Have you tried just changing the pets completely, then slotting them back in and renaming?

I have the same issue/question. When I rename a pet, it in effect names that slot, so if I change out the pet in that slot, the new pet inherits the name, and if I slot the original pet back in, it goes back to being “juvenile blah”.

Hopefully this will get fixed soon, as I quite like having unique names for each pet, but since I change around pets frequently, it gets tiresome having to rename them again and again.

Unless someone has a work-around for this?

That’s the issue. If you swap out pets in your pet slots, the names will reset every time.

I had a weird issue similar to this. When I charmed a jaguar, its name changed to the one I had given my alpine wolf. When I switched back to the wolf, its name returned to the default juvenile alpine wolf. I renamed them both and it seemed okay after that.

I haven’t charmed another pet since then; if it happens again I’ll update this post.

Edit: It happened again when I charmed a new pet. Filed a bug report, hope these issues get fixed.

Yeah, its a small problem that is still current.

Hopefully this will be fixed soon then and then we can all have names for each one of our pets and i don’t get raged at for stopping to rename my pets when i swap them out when in a party

also to add people who are saying your pets name is not changing when you swap it out, have you got the pet in the aquatic section as well as that will save the name

still an issue…

No its not since its made to be only the pets you have selected over water and under, can have names.
