Pets are all bugged!

[RisaCooper]

In the Sunken Temple playing on summoner and scholar for the first boss there is almost impossible. Doom will one shot any pet. Its extremely difficult to get said pet to the plate with you. My team was able to do it eventually but it took several times and lots of re-summoning during the fight ._. I'm not going to do that dungeon as a pet class in the future.

And there are cases that are even worse like in The Aurum Vale the first boss puts a stacking debuff on the entire room that you have to get out clicking on fruits on the ground, well the pet isn't a player and can't remove them so she dies all the time and it gets near impossible to a scholar to heal that boss afterwards, at least with our current gear, but that's not fair.

Pets need fixing!

I'm glad you mentioned Aurum Vale. That's currently the ONLY dungeon that as a SCH/SMN I feel incredibly useless. They need to allow us to remove our pets debuff when we eat the fruit. Ifrit/Titan are also obsolete choices on this map because of the yellow water, but there's still Garuda to get by that with so it's not as big of a deal.. but the fruit/debuff for pet needs to happen.

Zzz

Try to help the case and get slaughtered. This community.

My point i was trying to make i feel is still valid. I have never seen a scholar successfully keep a pet alive in amadapor keep on demon wall past the first repel because while moving in and out of purple your pet literally moves after getting hit. Into the next lane just in time to get hit again even after you have moved back.

And as for the damage reduction. It should be higher because face it or not they aren't going to make the scholar have a higher skill cap by adding another pet ability to be used to dodge every aoe your character has to. That's basically moving two separate characters everytime you need to avoid aoe. It's not gonna happen lol. 2.0 is way too casual friendly to ever implement a feature like that.

Would like to see how you feel after fighting demon wall as a scholar.

It's hard as hell, to be honest. I feel like we're at a severe disadvantage compared to WHM here. Even if I spam Succor and use Rouse during the add pop, if you're in an average DF party, you're not going to be able to keep up. I've beaten it a few times, but I think I'm probably not going to queue there as SCH anymore because we tend to make things harder for the party rather than easier.

The first boss in Aurum is another fight where we are clearly the inferior class because there's simply no way to keep the pet alive there, and that just makes us a gimp WHM with half the healing power.

I kind of predicted this would happen. SquareEnix is not known to remember pets when they design content.

In almost all these situations, the masters actions should carry over to the pet. Like if you remove doom on master, the pet loses doom as well.

This would be the easy fix to Aurum's first boss as well. If the Master eats the fruit, the pet loses the poison too.

idk i just think, something like a instant pet summon with idk 5m(or more) CD can solve that, and not too harder to bring to game that, but just for scholar pets and inside a dungeon or instance that will be active and not for regular pets, because ppl can do bad things without that.

Not just the first boss, but the last one as well. My poor fairy had 6+ stacks of that poison on her from Miser and then literally exploded with debuffs and died. At that point it was all Scholar on Edge for me, hammering heals and leeches to keep people alive so there was no time to resummon her.

im so sad about this
