Do you want to be able to control your pet again? (EotB)

Are there other people here who are as upset about the loss of Eyes of the Beast as I am? If there are enough of us, I'd like to get a thread going on the official Damage Dealing forum and keep it going for a few weeks to let people know we care about getting it back.

I do miss Eyes of the Beast, though I admittedly used it mainly as a way to kill time when waiting for someone or something.

I also miss EotB. I remember it fondly, since when I started raiding it was a perfectly viable pull method of Baron Gheddon. I also used it with a stealthy pet to explore things, like a warlock would their Eye of Kilrogg.

I would love it if blizz brought it back, it always makes me sad when I get a new pet and I can't get a better look at it...or when I want to goof off a bit with friends...and when I want to scout out an indoor area >.> I still don't get why they removed it in the first place.

YES.
Originally rolled a hunter for this very spell! It was so much fun to play with during RP sessions and general goofing around.

It was neat... especially back when BM hunters could extend the duration with talents... but honestly I don't miss it - I wouldn't mind if they returned it, but only as long as it didn't replace the new "move to" command; when I'm playing solo in a labyrinth or underground area I love being able to (quickly and easily) send my pet ahead to take up position at the next doorway (rather than wander up myself and hope nothing is waiting just around the corner...)

Oh, agreed about "Move To." I think we should have both.

HAHA!!! YAY!
EotB was so much fun...when sometimes, when I used to PvP, I liked to hide somewhere, control my pet and attack people with it. Some would get really confused when a spider would attack them but move around like a player...fun times! I would certainly like to keep Move To, and have EotB back.
Just for Glodd: /waggle

It was also good for taking care of pet pathing issues.

It's ok, your pet still loves you even if s/he won't let you share their body/mind

It would help me a lot if they brought EoTB back, I mean D: I use it to ambush people when I jump onto a ledge or something I now have to first have my pet wait up top hop down myself, then send him along his way all the time making sure he doesnt despawn because if I hop on the ledge he is stuck up there with me D:. I'd like to be able to jump off a cliff into a tree, and then eye of the beast my pet to position him out of the tree and down on the road ._.
