    Default How to fix pet spamming without any client update

    Here is an easy fix for ya, sts where just a few lines of code have to be added:

    This is combat mode, you sit in this position a few seconds after attacking or getting attacked by someone else:



    This is resting mode:



    Trying to swap/summon pet or map skills in the Attack mode should be denyed displaying an appropriate error message.

    Hope this helps.

    Well, client update is supposed to be 'soon' for weeks now (lol)...so I don't think they'll want to play with any coding that isn't needed.

    However, I honestly like your idea. It would allow us to still use pets like Nexus to recover our mana while in town or when you are in a distant/safe spot in PvP.
    But...this could still be abused in PvP, as a team could wait for the other team to approach so that they can be at rest to begin spamming Samael.
    Only those who risk going past the edge will find out how far they can go.

    If that will be the new strategy, I can't tell you how easy it would be in endgame to mow through their unprotected rogues because the tanks are busy spamming.

    Personally, if the developers upcoming fix is inadequate, I am sure they could fall back on something more simple like this.

    Additionally, they should extend this to no swapping of skills while in combat. You're in combat, why would you want to swap skills?!

    I'm not super familiar with endgame soapboxes--err, I mean PvP.
    Was thinking 2 tanks spamming pets like Clyde for a panic-lock, leaving rogues safe to pick off disabled enemies. But opposing rogues and mages can probably just attack from a safe distance without getting hit by panic.

    Nevermind on all that! lol
    But, someone out there will find a way to abuse it. There's always "that guy" that has to ruin something for everyone.

    It's impossible to abuse this, as soon as you use a skill, attack or get attacked by someone or his pet you will go into combat mode, it's basically impossible to stand in resting position during any fight.

    Spamming various buffs just before combat...! However, I just wanted to prove that it's not impossible. We all know that pet buffs don't really do much in 5v5s though.
