Pet Commands
Command: /pet follow me, or /pet guard me
UI Button: Follow
Effect: puts the pet in Follow mode. This is the initial mode of a newly summoned pet. This command will overwrite /pet sit and /pet guard here and force the pet to follow its master.
Command: /pet guard here
UI Button: Guard
Effect: puts the pet in Guard mode.
Detail: pet will become "parked" at its current locaton, contrary to the command wording it will not automatically attack any MOB, unless said MOB attacks its master.
Special Note: A pet under /pet guard here will face the nearest NPC, including invisible mobs, traps, horses, and Eye of Zomms.
Command: /pet sit down
UI Button: Sit
Effect: puts the pet in Sit mode.
Detail: works exactly like the /pet guard here command with a few minor exceptions, low level pets will regen slightly faster. Once pets get thier innate regen boost in the low 30's this additional regen becomes inconsequential. Another difference between /pet sit down and /pet guard here is the pet does not "remember" its last sit point. When a mob is killed, the pet will stay with its corpse rather than returning to the point where /pet sit was issued.
Special Note: /pet sit will toggle the pet's sit state, whereas /pet sit down will force the pet to sit.
Command: /pet attack
UI Button: Attack
Effect: places the owners current target onto the pet's Hate List, and ends /pet hold.
Detail: pet will temporarily forget all prior commands and attempt to attack the target at the top of his hate list. /pet attack does not place the target at the top of the pets hate list, it just makes the pet attack the mob at the top of his hate list. The pet will not forget targets it already hates. It will not "forget" movement states, such as follow or guard, it will just temporarily ignore them as he attempts to attack his target. After the mob dies, the pet will return to his previous guard point, follow, or sit down, as previously commanded. The pet may be sidetracked however if another MOB begins to attack him before he has engagued the target OR if another MOB is doing signifigantly more damage to the pet thus generating enough aggro to make the pet switch targets.
Special Note: you may also use the alternative version of this command /pet kill PvP Note: unless Player versus Player is enabled, you cannot add a player or a player charmed NPC to a pet's Hate List.
Command: /pet kill name
Effect: takes whatever would be selected by the command /target name and puts it at the top of the pet's Hate List.
Detail: for example assume King Tormax was within range for you to /target King Tormax the command /pet kill King Tormax will order the pet to attack King Tormax regardless of what you currently have tareted. Originally a zone wide command, it was reduced to only work within the same range of the /target command.
Command: /pet back off
UI Button: Back
Effect: empties the pet's Hate List, causing it to stop attacking.
Detail: while this will clear the pets hate list, if a mob atacks the pet again after this command is given it will begin attacking the mob again. This is a particular problem in areas with mobs casting large AE's. Temple of Veeshan is the most common example.
Command: /pet hold
Effect: causes the pet to be Held, i.e. it ignores its Hate List and goes into Free mode, resuming its regular movement (either follow, guard, or sit).
Detail: this command does not clear the pets hate list, the pet will remain "held" until you give it an attack command at which time it will attempt to attack the target at the top of its hate list. It is recommended you add the following line after /pet hold in a macro: /pet back off to ensure your pets hate list is clear. A pets hate list is frozen while it is "held", which means it does not add anyone or MOB to its hate list even if attacked.
Special Note: the command is only available to level 59 or higher Beastlords who have obtained the beastlord class AA skill Pet Discipline at a cost of 6 AA points. Beastlords must also have spent 6 AA in General abilities and 12 AA in Archetype abilities to gain access to this AA.
Command: /pet taunt off
UI Button: Taunt
Effect: disables pet taunting, that is the pet will not taunt during fights.
Detail: this command very helpful on raids or other such group encounters where summoning MOBs are involved. However, in solo situations you should generally leave taunt enabled.
Special Note: if you omit the "off" portion of the command it will toggle the pets taunt mode (i.e. if it is on it will switch it off, and vice-versa)
Command: /pet taunt on
UI Button: Taunt
Effect: enables pet taunting.
Detail: generally recommended for solo situations only.
Special Note: if you omit the "on" portion of the command it will toggle the pets taunt mode (i.e. if it is on it will switch it off, and vice-versa)
Command: /pet who leader
Effect: the pet will /say My leader is Doofus Da'Magi.
Detail: duh.
Command: /pet get lost
UI Button: Go Away
Effect: Instantly kills your pet.
Detail: This will instantly kill your pet, and is one of the essential commands for a technique known as chain-petting.
Special Note: This command is zone-wide and will kill your pet anywhere in the zone, regardless of distance from its master.
Command: /pet health
UI Button: The Pet window itself
Effect: Displays your pet's current health percentage and buff list in the chat window.
Detail: This command instantly displays the current status of your pet, showing its HP percentage and current buffs/debuffs it currently has.
Special Note: This command displays the pet's health faster than the UI can update, and is very useful when timing is critical.
Command: /pet target
Effect: Targets your pet.
Detail: This command clears your current target and replaces it with your pet. This is very useful for macros. However, it's often faster to simply hit the F1 key twice to target your pet.
Special Note: This command will target special pets that borrow the name of their master (i.e. Xalmat's pet) instead of your summoned pet (Flurfy's warder, Jonartik, etc). Use with caution when using such pets.
Command: /pet as you were
Effect: Clears your pet's command list
Detail: This tells your pet to revert to a free state. If the pet is currently under /pet follow, or /pet guard me, it will revert to a /pet sit state. If it is chasing an NPC, and /pet as you were, followed by /pet back off is issued, the pet will continue off in its direction of travel. This command does not break /pet hold.
