Non Combat pets in trials

Can we please get over it? I dont know how it is on xbox and pc but having a non combat pet out in a trial seems to really upset some people on ps4.

I can understand it might "clutter" the battle area. But the main focus is lag. "Put all non combat pets away because it causes lag".

Yeah, for you maybe. I've never experienced lag because someone has a pet out or because my pet is out, and i always have it out unless someone starts causing a fuss. I was in a trial the other night, no pets were out, again, to prevent lag. The whole trial was so laggy. smh.

It's a myth. One person said it once upon a time and it's stuck.

    I don't think anyone thinks that it's the only reason the trials are laggy and I know for a fact it doesn't help with the lag. On top of that if your pet happens to be standing over someone that died it can be even harder than usual to target them for revive. There's no reason to have your pet out in a trial, so let's just be courteous to the other 11 people we're running with. Same goes for bankers and merchants.

    I personally get annoyed with pets out in dungeons for the following reasons:

    1. I see them, sometimes think they are enemies, and I attack them.

    2. As a healer, I find it hard surveying the battlefield for people I need to heal or critique when standing in red when there are extra non-human bodies running around in the middle of enemies.

    3. Your pets sometimes obscure enemy telegraphed animations. I already have a hard enough time keeping NPCs from knocking me to the ground with lag animations, I don't need a [snip] pet standing in front of those animations.

    Those [snip] who have their banker or merchant following them in pug dungeons are the [snip] worst.

    This. Besides, why would you want your cute kwama or dromathra kitty to go through the horrors of a trial!? Poor things are probably scared [snip]!
