Guild Wars 2

Hey guys. What is your strategy for keeping pets alive at Kholer in AC exp? I could dodge his telegraphed attack perfectly fine, but my devourer cannot!

Stow your pet before the attack. see if that works and bring him out again after he launches his attack.

Atish.4351:

This, also if you have some competent players in your group, for example, a Mesmer who uses feedback, just call your pet back, and the Mesmer’s feedback bubble will block the projectile so he doesn’t get pulled in. Same applies for Guardian with shield of the avenger, just make sure the shield is between your pet and the boss at the time of the pull, then send it back in. there are of course a bunch of other skills, including Stability that will prevent a pull supplied by classes around you.

Note: don’t send the pet back in straight away, wait for the boss to do his whirl after the pull, and then you’re good to go.

Agreed, there are many ways you can avoid losing your pet, its just most rangers ignore their pets once they fight and don’t realize by losing your pet you lose a chunk of dps

When your pet gets pulled, swap it for your other pet.

Negativity.5801:

When your pet gets pulled, swap it for your other pet.

this

traited with 15 points bm, you have 16 seconds cd on swap, much less than needed to swap it on every of his pulls. You cant stow a pet if already in combat.

Rampage as One for Stability. Pet swapping after the pull once that’s worn off.
