The smokescale and bristleback appear to have a bug that causes them to do very little damage to various vinetooth mobs in Auric Basin (possibly other zones as well, but I’ve only tested AB)
When ever I engage any type of Vinetooth in AB both of these pets seem to only do 10-30 damage per hit, regardless of what ability they are using. It seems to only happen against Vinetooth mobs.
I encourage other people to go out and test this as well. This issue appears to be limited to just these two pets.
