God clannfear went to squishy as hell
I played yesterday and he was fine and tanky as usual, after downloading morrowind update today he's literally useless. Anyone else noticed this? Like his health doesn't regenerate anymore, 2 or 3 hits and dead, I'm not the greatest mage in the game and used him to my advantage in boss fights etc. It's a shame but the one good thing to come out of this is that I feel like a better player not relying on him anymore, plus the extra slot is useful

Adiathna✭Wednesday one of the people I was running an instance with mentioned that. One of the other people said, yes, they no longer regen...you have to heal your pet....and healers can't heal them anymore (if they could in the past)...the only healing they will ever get has to come from you. I don't know if that is true or not...I'm new as heck here...but that was what I heard them saying in discord.

✭✭✭✭✭Its an nerf to health regen for pets, activate it for healing, surge also work.
Turn on health bar for pets is also an good idea.Grinding just make you go in circles.
Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.1 -

I can confirm the fact that they don't regen. I don't think the second one (about other heals not working) is true, though... I've healed others' pets in town after this patch, and it worked.

There were some changes for pets that went in back on the PTS, and unfortunately the patch notes for the changes were missed. Here are the things we changed and what is currently live:- Removed passive healing from summoned pets.
- Increased a pet's damage reduction to radius attacks to 85% from 75%. This bonus applies to all attacks in Trials.
- Clannfear pets no longer taunt enemies in Trials.

I tried some directional heals on them in the instance and it didn't seem to affect them at all...but then again they were level 20 and above and I was level 5. My heals on the other toons seemed to scale up and have an effect...maybe they only scale on players and not on pets. I didn't even get the "glow animation" on the pets though. Maybe I just plain missed targeting.
I'll have to keep trying and see if it starts working as I get higher level.

Dixa✭✭✭✭the only heals that work on pets are heals that can be generally targeted on friendly npc's. healing springs, the clannfear has it's own heal, warden aoe heal depending on morph. pretty limited. i can't be bothered to test the matriarch on my sorc atm.
they have never been targets of things like regen/mutagen or many other heals. can't use warden vines, but lotus blossom works. you were able to use the massive hot warden chain on the pts but you can on longer target your pet with them.
dunno, at least your clannfear taunts still. the bear does the same damage as the clannfear, takes two ultimate slots and doesn't taunt at all ie. you could have it much worse.1 -

✭✭✭✭✭As a templar healer, I agree that most of my heals won't help pets. Healing springs does and seems to be my most effective tool for helping pets.
My magplar who runs clannfear and matriarch confirms that her matriarch's heal will always prioritize any player over any summon. Can't even heal my own clannfear via the matriarch unless there are no other players near.
No health regen for pets even out of combat does not make the game harder, just annoying and tedious. Not only for sorcs and wardens with pets, but for healers as well since most of us who embrace the profession feel compelled to heal any friendly health bar that is not full.

Ah...that explains my inability to heal pets then...I was on a templar healer...and don't have healing springs yet.

Oh, I should think that its unmorphed version (Grand Healing ) would work fine also and that is the first skill in the resto line.
