Furious howl bugged?

Not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I guess it concerns a pet so...


I tamed Snarler recently for raids as we some times miss a feral or fury warrior. I noticed last night however that even with the furious howl buff up, my crit remained unchanged on the stats screen. Has anyone else noticed this?

I don't think the stats screen changes to reflect pet buffs anymore, if it ever did. I don't know for sure, though, so I could definitely be wrong. Bring out a cat and try their roar as well, or a Devilsaur, just to see?

Cats buff definitely works, I remember checking with Sambas on the stat screen. Will have to wait till I'm home to check devilsaur though

ya i never noticed a change either, but i did have a lock in my raid check as he has a addon that takes buffs into account and he said it was workin 5% crit.

I did a real quick look on the blue notes but I cant find it again. I remember reading a patch change at some point is supposed to change it so your character screen will reflect stat changes from buffs... Right now it doesn't. I know my haste rate on the priest does not change when a shammy drops totems but the buff is still there. Furious Howl probably falls into the same category where your getting the buff but its just not showing in your stats.

I'll try to find the blue note post later.
