There is so much pets that do the same thing. Chilling/poison/bleed pets are the biggest offenders.

It is time to redesign them.

  • Polar Bear- Grant retaliation to allies and aegis to itself.
  • White Moa- Grant stability to allies.
  • Alpine wolf- inflict Torment
  • Ice Drake- Breath attack. Remove boons
  • Owl- Stay as chilling.
  • Lynx- Gain quickness to itself
  • Whiptail devourer- Pull enemies.
  • Marsh Drake- Poison enemies and clear ranger’s condition.
  • Lashtail devourer- grant aegis to itself and allies. To simulate a archer’s board protection. Rangers can hide and shoot behind a pet.
  • Arctodus- Knockback/knockdown enemies.

If this will affect the environmental mobs, Go ahead! I feel that this is balanced enough to not kill newbies in the PvE.

With this much variety, rangers can have more choices.

Doesnt agree… Thatmeans I can only use ONE pet if i want chilling…. Dont forget that the pets have more than the f2 skill to offer. Some of the effects could be added to the “other” skills. That would be something.

It would also be nice if pets had DMG reduction for some things… like polar bears take less chill dmg etc.

Yes, that means only one pet can use chilling. I don’t see what is the need for having all 5 pets getting chill.
