All pets do this and always have. Not saying I wouldn't mind a fix, but it's not specific to BDs nor is it likely fixable.

Yes, everyone is willing to leave the server for the slightest reason. It's a really good idea of you to play that card. Very original.

), but i'm asking to fix it

Think of it as a feature instead

I can't speak for the team and I'm no expert, but I assume it's really not fixable given the game environment and the fact that it has persisted for so long.

If you ever had the pleasure of a necro pet attacking you inside a keep, then you'd stop complaining about BD pets.

This is ok but if someone takes damage from a shroom through a door their world comes apart lol.

Pet/NPC pathing has been a very hard part of the DOL code. I remember someone was working on it for a while, but I dont think it ever made it fully into the repository. If I recall, that's why Uthgard took so long bringing out the necro.

If you know it, then why the clickbait title and putting all the fault on BDs when it's impacting all pet classes ? Trendy posting to howl with the pack against the evil BDs ?

All pets are bad..necro pets are the worst and quite frankly I believe there is a z axis range bug (a necro pet should not be able to attack you in the lord room when the door is closed..it should be too far..)

The BD squad is a close 2nd.

Sucks for us solo archers trying our best to defend a keep..all it takes is one pet(s) running through the closed doors to ruin our day.

And the number of BDs is laughable. That huge population itself should raise eyebrows as to what is up with that class...I guess when you think about it..

-East to level
-Strong solo class
-Does well in groups
-Can send pets through doors
- oh yea all that AND TWF.

Necro's, Animists and Bonedancers... All SI classes and all farming classes, that's why you see a bunch of them...

It's a general problem with the pets. The guards, for example, walk through walls :-D.
But I understand that very well because I have often been killed by pets while defending and that is very annoying...

Aye, this has been a constant issue recently due to all the Hib Zergs. It is a problem with all the pet classes, and is not specific to any one realm. Even before the outer gates are down the pets cab be inside the main tower attacking defenders, normally I try to lead the pets to the keep commander.
