Thank you, didn't know about the pet using dash. Will turn it off next fight. And thanks for linking the thread, it's the one I had in mind. I just wanted to put the rabid thing into here, too so we have all bugs in one thread :D

ADD... "a dumb dinosaur"?

Had to help but even then it was a struggle when it shouldn't have been and it never has been in the past. Also...I tried attacking a dragon that was grounded. It said I was too far away when I was close enough to kiss it if I wanted. My RL had to go SV to help with Ultraxion trash and more often than not, her 'taunts' werent working either and she too couldnt hit dragons, neither could her pet. We were both like "WTH?"
I run into this on my warrior....got kicked from a raid before first boss even for "low dps"...nearly every mob was untouchable!

I've been getting more and more of the "you must target something first" messages, even when it is perfectly clear that I HAVE something targeted.

Something even weirder started happening yesterday:

I was dragging one of my lowbie toons through some dungeons for rep, and when I'd send in my main's pet, my lowbie's pet would suddenly off and run to the same mob... despite my never having touched the "assist" macro I use for my dual-boxing.

I tried it multiple times. The 2nd account's pet was on assist mode, and I never touching the 2nd keyboard (I play on two PCs, with two screens, and two keyboards. If I want the 2nd account to do something, I have to press a key on the 2nd keyboard), I'd send in my main's pet in to attack a mob... and whoosh... there goes my 2nd account's pet, following my main's.

In the end, the only way to stop this was to put the 2nd account's pet on passive. This has NEVER been a problem before.
