Bug-List for 5.2 & Pet Battles

Post by Drudatz » March 6th, 2013, 6:13 am

No Patch without Bugs so I thought we collect all Pet Battle Bugs here:

- No-No's Ability Beaver Dam not only blocks your attacks but his own too :D

I don't think its a bug.. Looks like Bigglesworth ice barrier... it blocks both allies and enemy attacks so i believe the beaver dam works the same.

But another bug is the phasing of Kafi >.>

E: Tooooo slow with the beaver dam.

Few other bugs:

- Gusting Grimoire is Uncommon but this is said to be hotfixed "soon".
- A lot of ability animations have been speed up but they are a bit out of sync.
- Elite pet experience gain is low, but it's not yet known whether this is intended or not.
- Taking your candles since 2005

So far the issue I have is with my Anubisath Idol....He is a rare level 25, yet all of his abilities are locked except Crush. The rest of my team appears ok, but I haven't been through all of my pets yet. Anyone else seen this issue? I restarted WOW but no change.

I should note--they are only locked out while in battle-- I can see them and change them just fine when out of battle.

That's intentional. The Thundertail Flapper has the same ability: Beaver Dam.
"Creates a wooden dam that blocks two attacks. Both enemy and allied attacks will be blocked."

The abilities that only block opposing attacks are on a higher cooldown (8 rounds as opposed to 5).

Death Talon Whelpguard seems to be okay, Fluxfire Feline has got "Growl" twice for some reason,but can only use 1. Anubisath Idol can only use 1 attack. (These 3 are lvl 22) And killing them off didn't fix it.

Used 3 other random pets in a battle, they all seem fine.

-Seems to be fixed after using other pets.

I was wondering the same about the xp gained against elites...Its even less than a wild pets fight (250xp for a lvl 22).

I tried a second battle against the same elite pet just to verify and it was 0xp...

Also, I didn't see the name of this elite removed from the list of the quest "beast of fable"... I won twice, it should be enough :)

Regarding Anubisath idol being locked, you need to flip his abilities once for them to work, because had such a massive rework of skills. So they are registered to be in invalid positions, hence the lock. Just flip them and he becomes useable just fine.

It appears at 89 you stop getting XP for pet battling. I'm presuming this is a bug and it should be stopping at 90! Hopefully they'll hotfix it so that I can continue to lovingly frustrate my guildmates by ignoring questing in favour of pet battles :D

Not a bug, but probably a fix: The dragonkin racial applies for only one round like the tooltip says instead of the two rounds it always used to.

The elite pets give so little xp because you can just fight them repeatedly. They took out the ability to do that on gamers so it only stands to reason they wouldn't want to encourage that again :)

Edit: Nevermind, I tried switching up the order of my team (Kun-Lai Runt was first) and that seemed to do the trick.

Anyone else not getting credit for fighting some of the legendary pets? I have fought Ka'wi three times now, and it won't credit me. I do NOT want to abandon and fight them all over again for the day, he's my second to last :(

I think the problem people are facing with wins over fabled pets is just a synch issue similar to capturing a wild pet and it not crediting towards your Northrend safari or the like.

I would just fight all of them once and move on, credit or not, and when I got to the last win it retro credited all of them.

Grrr, I wish I knew that before I wasted a stone on mine.

Any chance we can ticket this and get the stone back?

Take him out of your active pets and switch him back in, that worked for me.
