Warcraft Pets Express vs. Armory Discrepancy

Post by Peeardee » October 5th, 2012, 7:08 pm

I know that things have been bumpy since MoP launched, but I've got a slight discrepancy between the number of pets the add-on registers for me, and how many Armory says I have. The add-on tracks 348 pets in my collection, but Armory has 350. Any ideas what isn't tracking properly? The difference is so slight that I don't think it's a bug.

Three things:

1. There was a bug with a previous version of the addon where it would only include the pets shown in your journal -- so if you had anything filtered at the time you activated the addon, any filtered-out pets wouldn't be imported (even if they were collected). This has been fixed in the latest version of the addon available here.

2. Make sure your current Armory count isn't counting any duplicates.

3. Try running the addon again -- we did just add a few more pets to the site that you may have collected in-game but they wouldn't register here if they were missing from our site.

Beyond those explanations, I'm not sure. *shrug*

I noticed something similar while I was capturing pets only available in Horde cities. My Horde toon's pet count was off by two. I immediately freaked out and started going through my pet list one by one comparing my collection on that toon to what I have collected on this site. It seems the culprits were the Guild Page and the Guild Herald. It seems these two pets are not account-wide and only count on my main where I actually bought them. Since you are off by exactly two, this might be your problem.

Yes -- good call, NathKnave. The Guild Herald and Guild Page may be causing this discrepancy.

Aha, good point! Thanks for the suggestion, I bet that's it.
