Yeah, wild battles are not really representative. Against same lvl pets XT deals ~50% dmg to the front line pet and ~25% to both backline pets with a full Tantrum, twice as much with an active Broken Heart, making it a very strong skill - however: a) you need 4 Rounds for that b) you are fully commi...

Yes, you CAN use wish on other pets, but having him in your team only for that is a waste of a pet slot in my opinion. You want a pet who can fend for himself in every spot, the fact that you can toss the Wish on another pet is a bonus, not his only purpose. I have to disagree. Yes, you CAN build h...

Exactly.
Same goes for the monk: Only humanoid attacks - and while he is pretty strong, there are other pets with similar or higher burst.

Why use Shell Shield if you want to heal up your other pets? Which is one big strength of the Crawdad.

In the days after the release you had a lot more of those low level battles - maybe you'll have again if a "second wave" of battlers start after getting bored with (not) raiding. ;) I believe battles around lvl 20 have one advantage: I got my first 5 wins in a row (without losing any pet) ...

I believe the range is getting bigger the longer you wait - pretty much like in PvP with MMR. So after 45 minutes... well... ^^

If found the Crawdad to be countered a lot easier than the Fluxfire Feline - but this might be because I usually have one or more high damage pets in my lineup - e.g. a FFF. ;) What's really strong about the Crawdad (from my point of view) is that it can save another pet about to die - e.g. the FFF ...

My memory might fail me but ... I don't think there is a trainer in Arathi? :D The Bubble of Mischief-Website helped me finding all those trainers - especially after the first time when you don't have a quest to follow anymore. Via "Pet Battles" you can find all contintents with all their ...

Saving a pet for someone, not sure if this will work but worth a try, mount your biggest mount/Mammoth ect. and sit on it hopefully conceling not from view but from clicking on the Green Paw until friend arrives. If s.o. of the opposing faction would do that, there is a good chance the pet would be...

Fluxfire can be countered - however: Right now there are not many pets that can do that and even those often get nearly killed. Even Elementals, that should beat the s*** out of a mechanical pet using a mechanical attack. However I believe it might be enough to bugfix Wind Up: Right now it ignores s...

Don't forget Rabid Strike. There's another +25% damage. Nice idea, however: There is a timing problem (even with a very cooperating enemy :D). The final part of my attack goes like this: Howl -> 2 Rounds +100% dmg -> Swap pet to Fluxfire Feline -> Howl @ 1 turn -> Wind Up = over 9000 crit! Now if a...

Before 5.1 some aquatic abilities "supressed" the rezz of undead/mechanicals. As far as I saw it 5.1 fixed most of this. However: At least Wind Up - that is being seen pretty often in PvP at the moment - currently supresses those rezzes. Fluxfire can literally one-shot even mechanical and ...

Ok, I just did a little testing based on your assumption - and it seems to be the right direction. First I thought that Supercharge just overrides the +25% dmg from Lightning Storm. I tested this Wind Up of the Fluxfire Feline, Screeching Gears and Metal Fist from the Personal World Destroyer. Howev...

I'm a little confused right now. So far I thought that percentage based bonusses to damage are calculated multiplicative, i.e.: A beast below 50% HP (+25% dmg) using a beast ability vs. a critter (+50% dmg) with a base damage of 100 would deal 100*1,25*1,5 = 187,5 dmg. Everything I saw so far seemed...

Ok, lets compare the Wild Golden and Wild Jade Hatchling first, since they have the same abilities but slightly different stats: Golden has slightly more speed (273 vs. 244), the Jade more HP (1627 vs. 1400). I'd go for the Jade here: Speed is binary. Either you are faster than your enemy or slower ...

I just experimented a little in order to get a balanced group that won't be destroyed by any inconvenient enemy. One team that worked out pretty well is this one: Fluxfire Feline (S) Oily Slimeling (with Absorb, Corrosion and Acidic Goo) Molten Hatchling Basically the backbone of this team is the Fl...
