Guild Wars 2

The games been out for a little over a month, why has this, a class-breaking feature, not been fixed yet? No matter how many times you claim to “fix” them each patch, they never are. Pets are still not using their F2 skills on-command as you stated to fix, they still cannot attack moving targets (move and attack at the same time) making them virtually useless in pvp, and they still are completely random with the mob hate (taking 5-10 seconds to switch targets as soon as F1 is called) and even while F1 is called out they will still attack the same target you are even if you choose for them to attack a different enemy.

Some information would be lovely on when we’re getting these issues fixed, I would love to see a massive update along with the Halloween event as you have usually done in the past Guild Wars events.

I have to say I don’t have a problem with this. Sometimes on F2 few secs, but that’s rare. Could this be caused by high latency or do you use cable connection (no wifi) and high speed and low ping latency internet connection?

agree with OP
pets right now are pretty broken and useless in wvw/spvp and over in Orr
since I kite… the mobs move and well moving mob = pet not attacking and mobs over in Orr ignore your pet anyway

I’m using a wired connection with low ping (averaging out to around 40~60 while playing GW2) and decent FPS (75-90FPS depending on if I use my fixed rate). This issue, as was stated by Arena Net already is not a latency issue, it is an issue with the pets’ programming itself. There have been numerous attempts at fixing these issues but none of them have succeeded, or were rolled back the very next update.

These issues can really hurt some of the major ranger builds (builds that revolve around pets), and while yes there are other options it still does not excuse the lack of response to these issues.
