I've been doing some thinking about the Bear for awhile. As most of you I hate that it has to be a double barred ultimate. I also hate other things about him such as limited controls (nothing like Wow & Lotro, COH/COV Mastermind class), uselessness in Cyrodiil PVP, and his occasional wigging out/pathfinding. Now this might have been brought up before and and as much as I read the forums I might have missed it but how would wardens like it if the bear was a single bar ultimate and had the bear charge out like from a distance, knock down target, and then fight for 30 sec-1 minute before leaving again? I mean we could then use him more reliably in some situations (Cyrodiil PVP, Boss Fights) while freeing up the other ultimate spot. It would also quiet down all fo the players who *** about our pets in the way at banks and crafting areas. Sorry I can't elaborate further but I'm on break at work and limited on time. Just curious if others think that would be a viable option.

Here's a link to the EQ2 Warden's Summon Wolves clips (Starts at 1:44) that really got me thinking about the temporary summons route. Of course this is an older MMO so it could look even better than this.
