Beyond having our main 2 pets we can swap between; how about have a stable where you can place say 5 additional pets that will automatically pop out and fight once your 2 main ones are dead. The stable pets can keep their F2 abilities, but cannot be controlled like the main pets. Basically they attack what you attack, and that’s it.

Obviously there are certain situations this would come in handy like dungeon bosses, or mega-zerg battles in WvW. All other times, I’ve found that rarely you’ll find both pets dead at the same time.

Basically how ever you have them lined up in your stable; they just pop out one by one after the previous one is dead. Once one of your main pets are ready to go again, your stable pet immediately gets replaced by it.

With this, I think we can at least try to keep our dps at similar levels as other classes in major battles, instead of it being reduced 30-40% some of the time. An elite skill could also be brought from this where your entire stable comes to fight for you for “x” amount of time.

You have an amazing imagination i am jealous! 3 spirits + 1 AI + 1 AI ally[howl of the pack] + 1 [Ogre pet whistle] + [Hounds of Balthazar] = We already have a stable full of pets:3

if anyone wants to keep their pet alive they could easily invest 30 points in beast mastery I promise it wont hurt at all to give your pet + 300 power, precision, toughness, vitality + 20 % faster pet swapping

The biggest problem is the mentality of a few rangers who think that training for beast mastery will do them no good, but when their pets keep dying they complain. complaining about that is basically like complaining that you died because you have no toughness/ vitality on at all.

Currently rangers are overpowered with their pets alive, and under powered with their pets downed… So having your pet down is all a part of the conspiracy of Anet to keep us in the middle of over powered / under powered sadly…
