Re: Solo Farming Pet Skills?

What I want to add to that is I try to balance my pet's basic armor and health. For example, a Gorilla has high base health and low armor, so I would choose armor 8 and stamina 6.
A Cat has low armor and medium health, so I'd get 1 level higher in armor than in health.

Re: Pet attack speeds

Hey

Just tamed Maraudine Bonepaw, level 37 Hyena, unfortunately he only has 2.0 Attack Speed and no abilities.

I have a screenshot after the tame, if you want it let me know where to put it ;p

edit : And it seems someone beat me to it :p

Re: Hunter Pet: Broken Tooth and King Bang

There are no more differences, there are many reports and confirmations that there are no more special abilities or different damage types. So all pet families are normalized. Which means no Cobra Reflexes for King Bang. The only difference between pets from the same familiy ( cats in your case ), i...

Re: Classic: Can't train a cat to prowl

Yes, only 4 active skills possible. There is a nice pet ability calculator at wowhead : https://classic.wowhead.com/hunter-pet-training This is why I would never learn Cower. Also for a Cat you have to make a more difficult choice between the 5 other active abilities. Do you go for more DPS ( Bite +...

Re: Ghostpaw Alpha attack speed confirmation needed

I can confirm the attack speed of Ghostpaw Alpha and Mist Howler at 1.3
I think it is safe to say that we can assume that all the attack speeds listed on Petopia are correct.

Re: Tank pets in WoW Classic compared

Update : Corrected the Large Loch Crocolisk and Crocolisk Attack Speeds after taming it.
Update : Changed the wording of Medium-Light tanks conclusion to reflect Wolves and Carrion Birds as the top choices.

Re: taming question.

Hey there, It does not matter really, it is of course easier to get a higher level pet. You will always need to improve your pet to loyalty level 6 by keeping it happy all the time and killing mobs that give you xp ( so at least green con mobs ) and try to avoid getting it killed. Now if there is a ...

Re: In need of a BiS list of pets and a fast way to level pets

For raiding, I use Deathmaw since I learned Furious Howl 4 from the LBRS Worgs, so I get the benefit of the higher buff with the faster attack speed. That is the best Wolf ( You could also choose the Slavering Worg from SFK for the same Attack Speed ), and BIS for raiding indeed. Of course if sever...

Re: Special Pets (functional)

Just in case anyone is still wondering, I have several confirmations that there are no more special pets (Attack Speed being the only exception) in Classic. Some examples : - Lupos (Wolf), which had Shadow damage during early Vanilla. This is replaced with Normal damage in Classic. - King Bangalash ...

Re: Special Pets (functional)

So faster attack speed = more crits = more DPS. No, because lower attack speed = bigger base damage per attack = bigger crits = the same dps. What the faster attack speed gives you is more crits, which gives you more chances to proc Frenzy, which is increased attack speed without a damage penalty, ...

Hello Landael and Listopencil After updating my guide I started checking up on the attack speeds from the pets I could easily tame and it looks like my sources have at least some errors in them. So I will update my guide accordingly. I suggest or ask you guys to go out and tame these pets you like a...

Re: Best tank pets in WoW Classic

I guess I have failed to make my point, but indeed I said that this list was from top to bottom and that is not correct, so I will rework that wording. The Bear does have the best tank stats because it has very high health and still good enough armor. But that does not mean that the Bear is the best...

Re: In need of a BiS list of pets and a fast way to level pets

I have to agree with most of what Supradraco said. The only remark I have is that if you are in a raid guild you should be able to coordinate with your fellow hunters to decide if you train a bat or a wolf, so I personally would not keep 2 raid pets. You only have 3 slots, and unless you have learne...

Re: Special Pets (functional)

Quick question. I noticed that there was some information posted saying that pets did the same damage regardless of attack speed. I wonder if that is true though. Surely with faster attack speed there would be more chances to get a critical strike to increase the uptime of Frenzy (beastmaster talen...
