I was recently in a Dungeon Group with a few rando's. It was all fine until my Pet accidentally kept on pulling mobs, and the first time it was because it was a Cliff, so of course the dumb pet just goes the LONGEST POSSIBLE ROUTE and AGGRO'S EVERYTHING.
So this is what they told me.
"Dismiss your pet."
Dismiss. Yes, I understand, "But you should ALWAYS dismiss your pet in some situations as a Hunter!"
But let me ask you this.
Has a Warlock's Imp, Felguard, or ANY Minion EVER pulled more mobs than intended? Have they ever been scolded by a group, and forcibly removed from combat, forcing a Warlock to go solo, because their Minion is dumb as bricks? How about a Death Knight and his Ghoul?
Nope. Those pets somehow know NOT TO AGGRO ANY MOBS. In fact, they act like the USAIN BOLT and RUSH to your location if you've gotten to a location that is farther away from them.
But Hunter Pets? Nooo. They meander their way to your location, slowly, and make sure they pick up EVERY SINGLE ENEMY ALONG THE WAY.
So I ask. Why is it that I have to dismiss my pet during EVERY SINGLE FUCKING DUNGEON OR RAID because BLIZZARD can't set up a system that doesn't cause a pet to aggro unintentional mobs, when they have been FULLY FUCKING CAPABLE OF DOING SO, for 12 YEARS.
I LIKE HAVING A PET. DON'T FORCE ME TO GO SOLO BECAUSE OF YOUR SHODDY PROGRAMMING.
