Sorry, not sure why but i can’t seem to post this to the suggestion board…So here goes:

Here is an idea that i think would improve the overall usefulness of the ranger class pets and provide a boost to the class’s usefulness in wvw and maybe pve as well (not too sure here as i don’t pve).

The skill would be: Possess Pet. Medium cooldown (something around 40 to 60 after you’ve returned).

What would it do ?
You would gain control of your pet…losing your character’s control in the process, leaving you vulnerable (so not something OP).

What would it achieve ?
Give our pets more purpose as we could then use our pet to scout outside of a tower, go pull some mobs, etc. It would make rangers better at scouting than most classes which would give them a bigger purpose in WvW. It could be useful in dungeons (again, might need some feedback about this).

By having this as a new skill, it would not be too overpowered since it would eat up one of our slots.
And it’d be really fun to use too…what player doesn’t like transforming or playing a mob (something that exists in several other games).
