Special Summon Effects Missing?
Just tamed Arikara and noticed that the stable summon effect is missing. Has anyone else noticed the same for other pets with special effects?
Re: Special Summon Effects Missing?
Oh that sucks It should be considered a bug since that effect wasn't removed from Arikara until Cataclysm. I've posted a bug report here:

Can confirm, Arikara has no special summon effect.

Re: Special Summon Effects Missing?
Aww, that's sad!
I remember when pets had summon effects, like Arikara and I believe Gezzarak too, but I couldn't recall if they'd been in the game during Vanilla. (I'm assuming so though)
I wonder if it's something to do with the coding being based off the modern game, which no longer has those effects. I've noticed the pet AI is still the modern one which still feels slightly delayed compared to what it used to be (I think the delay started in Legion and was never really fixed back to the original feel).

Is that why I no longer have a Move To command on my toons with pets?Vephriel wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2019 4:50 pm I wonder if it's something to do with the coding being based off the modern game, which no longer has those effects.

'Move To' was not an option in Vanilla, that was changed much later on (I forget which expansion), instead we had 'Stay'!listopencil wrote: ↑Mon Sep 23, 2019 6:45 pmIs that why I no longer have a Move To command on my toons with pets?Vephriel wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2019 4:50 pm I wonder if it's something to do with the coding being based off the modern game, which no longer has those effects.
