Guild Wars 2

Am I the only one with this problem? Is my character bugged? I’m really wondering that noone else is posting about this problem.

When I swap my pet sometimes the pet will be dead instead at 100% HP. Today it happened three times and overall it happened at least 15 times to me. It is incredibly annoying when it happens.
This happened since the patch where the pets remember the CD on the F2 skills and all other skills.
Anyone else is encountering this bug or am I really the only ranger with this problem?
Oh and until now it only happened in WvW to me but that might be because I’m in WvW most of the time

I’m seeing some weird pet death stuff going on during/after the cinematics/boss fight at the end of the molten foundry but aside from that I’ve had no problems.

Are you a norn using your racial elite skills? If so stop using it while your pets dead.

I am a norn and I use the elite skill often. But the pet is not dead after coming out of the norn form. It is dead when I switch it as a norn. Thats what matters me. And I will not stop using my form because of a bug.

It’s a known bug that if you use your norn elite while your pet is dead when you swap pets your other pet will be dead, just use the form -before- your current pet is dead.

I had a weird pet death bug where its health bar was full but it was actually dead. Perhaps it learned a new trick.

I will try to reproduce that and if it is true AreaNet knows what to do

Sometimes my pet dies from fall damage. I don’t know how but it happens lol.

I’ve had it happen a few times, I think it’s when I’ve had one pet die in either water or on land and after changing terrain the wrong pet will be dead.

Oh this could absolutely be the reason. I know that it happened a few times after I came out of the water

Yeah, it’s a pretty annoying bug, probably the only reason i couldn’t keep playing my Norn Ranger, hopefully they’ll fix it because those shapeshift elites are just waaaaaaay too much fun.
