Pet Battle bugs 5.1

Post by Mrbeankc » November 27th, 2012, 3:15 pm

Ok, this thread is for listing bugs you're seen so far in 5.1

Looks like a number of combat graphics are missing. In my current 3 man group my Flayer Youngling's reflection graphic is not showing in combat. Neither is the missile on my Darkmoon Zepplin. The abilities work they simply do not show the graphic in combat.

I like the new interface. It does a lot that my add ons use to. The only thing missing is when I mouse over the opposing pet it lists if I have the pet but doesn't show the level i.e. rare, uncommon ect. I like being able to quickly see if the pet I am battling is an upgrade which I could do with the add ons I was running (Pet Theory and Pet Quality Glow). Might have to put those add ons back on to be able to see that.

I just defeated the Burning Pandaren Spirit in battle, and no credit... Anyone else have this happen?

With Kalimdor Safari, I've gone from needing just the Qiraji Guardling to needing it and a "Crested Owl" (despite already having 2).

I just had this happen as well with the earth spirit. :-(

EDIT: I came back later and it worked.

Not sure if you'd call it a bug exactly but Taming the World doesn't appear to reward the safari hat as advertised.

The tooltip (while active in battle) for the Petability, "Repair" (or atleast on my Clockwork Gnome) doesn't list a value to be healed. Instead, it says "... then repairs DATA ERROR health."

Same. I went out, captured another one (poor) and it gave me credit.

Not sure if it's just me so if someone else would like to check on it. Dead pets soaking up XP. I did a battle and I got the same amount of XP for my little one even though I exploded my mech dragon compared to when I kept it alive.

It was the same XP also when I used an undead and did the die at end trick to get a rez and then die at end again for a simultaneous death.

If it's not just me or if it is a stealth nerf then I guess it's good and bad. Bad because it's an XP nerf. Good because now we can take our L1 into battle with L25s and not worry about their survival since they will still get XP.

Then again maybe they added an XP gain cap.

I fourth this. (Is that a thing?)

Also, the Frog Kiss ability graphics seem to be messed up. The pet now makes the kiss noise/graphics *before* hopping over next to the opponent.

The first is definitely happening, the second, not so much. I was leveling two lower-level pets together, and if one died the other would still only get half the experience as if the first pet were still alive and getting experience. But, even though the dead pet was gimping the experience of the pet left alive, it was dead and NOT getting experience. The remaining experience is just lost.

I really hope this is a bug and it gets fixed soon.
