To Anet, the Devs,

Could you please comment, in general, about how the team currently feels about Ranger pets/pet system, and, the direction in which the team may be headed regarding any improvements or upgrades?

This is a topic the team has remained completely and utterly silent about since launch.

The Dev response on the 2nd ever post on this forum is an explanation of all.

Heimskarl,

That “response” from the Devs (and consequent complete lack of action two years after launch—as sad as that is) is specifically about pet names.

I’m after a more general and frank, 2015 response.

It rather specifies their attitude towards the matter concerning this area.
Which can very easily be implemented to your question. Which means it is going to fit the “frank and up to date 2015 response”.

“Observe, learn and counter.”

In the ranger section Peters posted that they are aware of the passive/aggressive issues that were caused a while ago. I also believe that in a dev video/stream it was said that all AI in the game was getting a serious over haul,ranger pets included.

Once pets can hit a moving target and get 1.5seconds evade upon ranger dodge roll I think pets will be in a fairly decent place.

They said they are aware of the bug they caused by launching the latest update.
Which is more or less admitting the fault of spoiling something that worked.

Our case something that always worked, but was implemented wrong.
