I would also like to see a backgroup added aswell.
For both the fellower and Pets.

<pethpp> Your pet's current HP as a percentage.
<petmpp> Will display the current MP of your pet or automaton as a percentage of its maximum value.
<pettp> Your pet's current TP as a percentage.

you can't get exact amounts of HP or MP with it; the only real solution right now is a third party program.

They could expand the current pet HP bar and make the bars similar to how your own HP/MP pops up at the bottom right hand corner of the screen, with the numbers overlaying the bars. I prefer not having something so big and bulky like you have in your example. The image of your pet seems unnecessary, as well as the form of it doesn't work with the overall UI Layout.

Truly, I've never understood why the developers seem to want to keep exact the HP a secret. We can see the total HP of our party and alliance members, and when you summon or charm a pet, they fight like one of the team. It's only natural to want to know how much punishment they can take.

Totally support this idea as long as it's worked to include Avatars. Knowing how much HP Garuda has at level 99 would be equally useful to the soloist Summoner as it would be for Beastmasters pets.

I agree that it's kind of ridiculous that we don't have more displayed info on our pets than a shiny red bar that goes up and down. I also agree that it's positively idiotic that they expect people in 2012 to use text commands to play a game. Every time I have to enter /echo <pettp>, I feel like I'm playing King's Quest IV...
