Keeping an eye on your pet on battlegrounds
Posted: Mon Aug 08, 2011 4:30 am
Ok guys here is my problem:
I lose my pet very often among the crowd when I fight on a battleground. The problem gets aggravated during crowded battles such as Alterac Valley and especially Tol Barad.
While questing, I solve this problem by putting a raid mark on my pet, so that I can quickly find it wherever it is. But it is not possible to do the same when in groups or on battlegrounds (unless I am the leader). Minimap doesn't help because colored dots that show my teammates cover the dot that shows my pet. If I turn on nameplates for my pet, I have to do it for all my teammates as well, therefore it doesn't help. Turning on the name (not the nameplate) is not effective, because it is not visible at all from distance.
My question is how do you make it easy to keep an eye on your pet's whereabouts? Is there an addon that I can use?
