Guild Wars 2

Has anyone else noticed that this trait seems to not be working? When I use Fern Hound F2, my regeneration boon lasts for 10 seconds. Both with and without the trait and the trait is supposed to increase the duration of boons applied by your pets. Or am I misunderstanding something?

Hi, pet must be in combat for “Concentration Training” to wrok.
Test it after your pet hit the target.

The pet has to be in combat.

If your pet is on “Guard”-mode, the pet will be in combat whenever the Ranger is in combat or if you press F1 on a target.

If your pet is on “Avoid Combat”-mode, the pet will only be in combat after you press F1 on a target. Instantly after you press F1 though. You won’t have to wait for it to hit something.

So technically, you could do the following with a pet on “Avoid Combat” to get the benefit of Concentration Training:
- select a target
- press F1
- press F2
- wait for the pet to finish
- press F3

Very rubbish, but it’s the only work-around we have. You might want to consider getting Commanding Voice (in Beastmastery) instead.

By the way, the same nonsense is true for Compassion Training, Maliscious Training, Pet’s Prowess and Expertise Training.

Thank you, I didn’t know the pet had to be in combat for the trait to take effect. Problem solved ^^
