Guild Wars 2

Why are 4 pet attributes in Pet Management window always at 0 ( crit, healing, condition dmg, and agony resistance), and what is their purpose? I was thinking it must have something to do with Master’s Bond trait.

There are traits that boost Crit Damage, Healing and Condition Damage, though they only work in combat for whatever reason, so if you want to see the boosts displayed on the pet management screen you’d have to get into combat and then look.

Its possible they originally intended for those stats to be boosted through other means or based on pet species (maybe some pets were going to have innate condition damage, some would have healing, ect) but they scrapped the idea, since its kind of silly to have stat fields for something only boostable by traits (especially when said traits won’t show half the time anyway). Who knows.

Nothing has been done with Agony Resist yet (short of adding the field to the window, it didn’t exist before the Fractals dungeon was added so there was no AR listing in the pet window either), but I imagine it’ll be added in some way in the future, probably once Ascended armor gets introduced into the game.
