Feeding Mechanical Pets
Apparently these are engineering parts, meaning there's good synergy with the engineering profession and Mechanical pets.
It appears that (as you might expect) the level of the engineering parts that can be consumed correlates to the level of the pet. Tom's list is:
Handful of copper bolts
Bronze Tube
Bronze Framework
Whirring Bronze Gizmo
Silver Contact
Iron Strut
Gold Power Core
Mithril Casing
Unstable Trigger
Truesilver Transformer
Thorium Widget
Thorium Tube
Fel Iron Bolts
Fel Iron Casing
Adamantite Frame
Pet Level 100
Cobalt bolts
Ghost Iron bolts
It'll be interesting if the community here can build on this list. Are there any vendor items (from engineering suppliers?) that can be used as food?

Re: Feeding Mechanical Pets
I don't think I've gotten specific pet food for any of my pets in years now.
Are they changing this aspect with Legion?
A bit of palindromic wisdom:

Casual player.. don't raid, don't PvP. Suffer from extreme altitis
I love pets - combat or non.

Re: Feeding Mechanical Pets
guess I'll have to resort to carrying around a bit of extra food then.

Did they change it so you can feed them in combat? Otherwise I don't see how feeding pets is anymore useful then it has been.Wain wrote:Not directly but pet healing is so poor now that some players are returning to using food to supplement it.
Re: Feeding Mechanical Pets
I could see it coming in handy when questing. You go out to some area and end up picking up more mobs than you intended. You get 'em all down, but Fluffy is low health and Mend Pet is still on cooldown. Feeding Fluffy would be a good and helpful thing to get his health back up before the mobs respawn or a patrol ambles into aggro radius.Rawr wrote:Did they change it so you can feed them in combat?

I still feed my pets to heal them TBH. Especially in dungeons /raids.

Re: Feeding Mechanical Pets
I can't remember when the last time I used Feed pet...every sweep I am surprised that ability is still there. If it could be used in combat then I would most likely make use of it...but sacrifising bag space for food for each pets preference...not worth it for a few extra casts of mend pet or a bandage.
ATM, I've been keeping my pets in tank spec because it's the only spec they have a remote chance of surviving any sort of encounter (involving more then a single target) right now. sacrifice dps for survivability or go Ferocity and spend most of the fight reviving my pet...

I'm shooting my pet at a boss more than I'm auto shotting.

Re: Feeding Mechanical Pets
Insulated Wiring does count as mechanical pet food, but its too low level for 120 pets. The blasting caps do not. I talked about this a bit in the Feeding Pets-food on the action bar thread.Chaix wrote:I would think insulated wiring and chemical blasting caps would work as food.

Is there anything that blacksmiths make that might work?
