Guild Wars 2

I don’t know if I was never observant enough before, but just recently (past couple days) I noticed my pet (only tested with wolf) has started “jumping” off cliffs when I do and taking fall damage (I know it happens in WvW borderland maps, unsure about any others). It was actually so extreme at one point that my pet “died”.

Another interesting thing I noticed is that my pet (jaguar this time) died in CoF boulder lights area to the point where it fell over and had to be revived (again, never noticed this before). Instead I swapped it and when I swapped back to it later it was laying on the ground with 3/4 health, took a few seconds to stand and begin working.

This is not the way I want to see pets moving toward. I would prefer aoe mitigation (at least in dungeons), agony resist, no fall damage, less missing, invulnerability on dungeon traps, etc. I also noticed the “land shark” thing much more frequently as of the past few days, having it occur on me 3 times and also on others in my guild several times (WvW only as well). So my question is, has anyone else ever seen these things?

At one time in the EB JP I missed a beam and fell halfway down the well. Because I had 50% fall damage reduction, I survived. But my pet Raven made a pitiful sound and I found it dead on the spot where I landed.
