Spirit beast bugs?

Unread post by NightOwl »

I've noticed some little bugs with my spirit beasts. The first is with Spirit Walk, if I manually turn it on I cannot turn it off again unless I send the pet to attack and bring itself out of stealth. It always says "That ability isn't ready yet" if I try to turn it off myself. Second, and I don't know if this is how it's always been as I just started collecting spirit beasts, is that if I send my pet to attack a mob and it kills the mob without any attacks or help from me (which happens a lot in low level zones), the corpse is unlootable.

Anyone else having these issues? Has this been addressed somewhere else? :?

pet stealth abilities are currently broken. Both spirit walk and prowl are having this issue with is really frusterating! I am not sure if it started last patch or was happening before that, as I generally just use my hyena. But I've found it to be really annoying bug.

If your pet kills a mob without any player dealing damage to that mob, it is unlootable, that has been going on since...forever.

The second exists so hunters can't just sit afk in the middle of a bunch of stuff and have the pet do all the work.

Ah. That makes sense. The stealth thing is kind of annoying though!
