Minor QOL Change regarding target macro.

Hi,

I'm playing a bard and i'm legit tilting as we speak trying to target my animist's pet to heal it and having to target someone else to heal them. I understand you can make an assist macro so you can assist the animist and he could target his pet but it's just really annoying for everyone and it would be much simpler to be able to make a /target x (being a pet) macro for PVE.

to further reinforce my point take a look at this and let me know how i'm supposed to target the correct war crier :> : http://prntscr.com/m7tty0

Not a big priority but would be a good change IMO.

Thanks for reading.

Group heal, or have animist heal their own pet. I'm not sure they could add something like group bar showing players main pet or a target command for a specific players pet.

The easiest would be just a version of /target that targets a person's permanent pet.

/target someplayer -- targets someplayer
/targetpet someplayer -- targets someplayer's pet

Otherwise, you would have to somehow distinguish between lots of pets that have exactly the same name.

For those who are into programming, it could be

/target someplayer.pet

One of the arguments against something like this is that healing someone else's pet is supposed to be less convenient. Focus pulling and animist strategies aren't supposed to be convenient.
