Yep, my pets are not regaining health either. Sent a bug report yesterday in-game and haven't had a response yet.

THAT'S what changed! I haven't really been paying attention to their health bars between engagements (is there a way to do so without having to run the crosshairs over them?), but they seem to die really quickly when we just begin fighting the next group of monsters- certainly faster than before the patch. It's a bit of a letdown, particularly at the same time as the QoL change that means I don't have to resummon them every single time I change zones or enter/leave a cell.

ZOS giveth, and ZOS taketh away. It's a net-neutral change if you don't use pets. If you do, it's a...well, I'm not even sure on that one. I'll get back to you.

I believe this is all pets. I've seen warden bears running around with less than max health that weren't regenerating either.

It's most likely a bug and I hope they will fix ASAP! The Clannfear was only useful for the tankyness and resistance, it's now DEAD!

Plus downgraded AI and stupid aggro. The ability is now completely useless.

Here my very-unhappy post about the Clannfear and other users reporting the issue.

There is also a link in there of another discussion about all the pets, there are a lot around by now and no answer yet!

Fixed an issue where summoned pets were not being affected by the healing reduction of Battle Spirit. They will now all receive 50% less healing in PvP areas.

It's the only thing about Pet and Health that i've see on the patch note , if sorc pets are not regaining health anymore... it's maybe a bug they added with this nerf .

I hope this wasn't Inteded because:

- Sorc tank ( i talk about pve ) have been nerf cause of the Dark deal nerf ... if you take an oneshot attack when you using this skill which will last longer ... you will die .
- And now , they nerfed our Tanky pet ...

What are we supossed to do now ? our particularity that make us a liitle good at tank .. are nerfed ...

same thing about the heal sorc ...

So , my question isn't " why did they nerfed pets " but " Where is the interest of nerf the possibility of a class to tank or heal , when this class is already underpowered at these role ? "

The warden bear also doesn't recover it's health out of combat.

And also from what I have noticed is they are now during from Boss aoe. They never have before. Or maybe it just seems that way because they don't have the health anymore.

For what it's worth to you: I have submitted at least 50 in-game reports about software flaws and malfunctions ("bugs"), and scores more reports about missing, inaccessible, or bugged Lorebooks. However, I have rarely received a response from anyone at ZOS about an evident flaw in the game software. Also, ZOS has never acknowledged any that I have reported in this forum.

That said, a problem with an ability which I reported in-game was remedied about ten weeks afterward. ZOS has also modified the software after I've reported, in-game or in this forum, some other bugs, or design oversights and errors -- occasionally in the next patch, or in some subsequent patch, or in the next major update. To be fair, some bugs have also been reported in this forum by other players, so it would not surprise me if one or more other players also have reported a bug in-game that I've reported in-game, too.

Suffice it to say, though, that many of my reports have not resulted in any change in the behavior of the software, i.e., the bug remains unremedied. There are numerous eyesores and malfunctions that I doubt will ever be corrected.

Customer Service staff members review each in-game bug report (with the attached screenshot, if any), then decide whether to forward it to the developers. There are probably criteria which they use to determine whether an in-game report should be forwarded, but ZOS has not published any criteria of which I have been apprised. Occasionally, a CS staffer has responded via external e-mail to ask for clarification or for more information.

Regardless, ordinarily, a staff member does not send a notice that they forwarded my in-game report to the developers, although it might eventually become evident that the developers were informed about the bug. However, the CS staff has sent written acknowledgements via external e-mail:

1. after I reported, in-game, a security vulnerability or an evident exploit of a security flaw;
2. after I reported, in-game, a player who appeared to be using a bot to gather crafting materials;
3. after I described, in-game, other violations of the Terms of Service in the behavior of one or more players in the course of playing the game.

Ordinarily the response has been simply an acknowledgement that ZOS received the report and will investigate. However, after a report that I sent in the third category, a major part of a Public Dungeon was redesigned to prevent the anti-social behavior of a certain group of players from ever occurring there again. I have no idea whether any participant was either suspended from play for a while, or eventually banned from the game.

Note: sharing my experience here is neither bragging nor complaining, just the facts. The ZOS policies and procedures are what they are. If you think that they can be improved, then please direct your comments to them, not to me.
