The players can unsummon the combat pets when they are outside combat but most of them don't bother to do that...
zos just needs to make our WEAPONS smaller.0 -
Iarao✭✭✭✭They should make bears invisible around craft stations. I'm not unsummoningy bear because on console hitting menu, moving down to character, moving down to the bear, hitting x to remove, hitting b a couple of times to get back to the real world, then when I get into combat, running around for three seconds to resummon the bear (and having to press two buttons simultaneously) is too annoying. Automatic desummon in cities and then an automatic resummon as soon as combat starts (no delay, no multiple button presses) is something that ZOS should add.
yes. or make the flappies and imps things smaller. like nixad size. my flappy gets in my way all the time, but i will NOT unsummon it because it is a weapon.0 -
Iarao✭✭✭✭I looked at unsummoning the bear on console yesterday and while it will depend on how many status effects you have active, ut would have taken 14 moves or clicks to desummon the bear and get back out of the menu. That's too much. Combat pets should be automatically summoned when combat starts and automatically desummoned when it ends.
totally agree cuz i really dont like my view impeded by a string of pets across the landscape. seriously. i'm mainly here for the view.1 -

especially not large ones. i can see the point for the warden cuz one with nature and all that, but maybe the standard non combat pet for the warden should be a grizzly cub. ditto for anything much larger than that for everyone.0 -

they would only be invisible anywhere you need to interact with something. but i think that would be too much of a strain on servers and would req that they upgrade them. just shrinking them would probably work better.0 -
Iarao✭✭✭✭Ah, it's this topic again. I've been away for half a year (it was the blight, I tell you!), and it seems nothing changed... I really don't understand why they don't let sorc and warden pets automatically despawn in towns (or near crafting stations and banks)? Shouldn't be that difficult?SammyKhajit wrote: »Yesterday someone was at the crafting station whilst riding on their camel, their sorc pets and that pack pig thing.

Don't you automatically dismount when using the stations?
as long as they auto respawn when you leave town, etc. gonna be too hard on the servers to constantly be spawning and despawning.0 -

they ARE literally restraining him from performing his intended action.
of seeing his character.
while using the outfit station.
where he changes the appearance.
of his character.
which he'd like to see.Also don't forget when the 10 Maws of the Inferno spawn right in front of tanks in trials and completely blocks the boss visuals and sometimes even the targeting for taunts...
oh, i wish i could forget that, i really do.

That was in Glenumbra blacksmith station. No idea why they were able to ride in.
I think that's a bug that happens when you punch through the door on your mount instead of dismounting first. I did it once at a similar station and regretted it. I was stuck on my mount while everything loaded in, and I'm sure I looked ridiculous.✨🐦✨ Blackfeather Court Commission ✨🐦✨0 -

LOL I see what you did there

jm42✭✭✭✭That’s nothing, just wait till you come across a warden with that dumb bear and a sorc with that stupid flappy bird both at the same crafting station and you will experience true rage.
I exp this all the time when i play my tank Sorc pets, warden pets, daedroths from set - and I can see neither my char nor the boss. Crafting stations are not the worst issue with pets at all

✭✭Toggle option in settings "Hide allied pets" is the solution to combat pets. We already have "Hide additional allied effects" option which hides allied ground AoE dots so this shouldn't be hard to implement.
However, I can't think of solution for non-combat pets. If players could hide all non-combat pets from their sight, what would be the purpose of using them and more importantly buying them?0 -

Which was Really irritating when I was trying to get the achievement for opening the 3 chests in the required time or less ... and someone had their Twilight blocking me from accessing one of the chests.
I had a big fat bear sitting on the advanced chest, it was an intentional troll by someone cause it was still there when I returned to do the quest on another character.0 -

That's too much. Combat pets should be automatically summoned when combat starts and automatically desummoned when it ends.
When I (rarely, to be fair) play a warden, I only have the bear on one bar, making it simple and instant to dismiss by bar swapping when I enter a town. When I'm expecting combat I revert the bar then summon the bear so that I am prepared for a fight.0 -
WithMyLaserGun✭✭✭Yes please get them away from crafting stations. I spent several minutes just trying to use a Blacksmithing Station yesterday because there was a bloody bear on it blocking my ability to click it.1

Nezyr_Jezz✭✭✭Sorcerers should get a bounty on their head by bringing deadric pets into towns as much as necromancers do for the undead. Same principle. End of problems. Add a criminal act to pets and problem solved XD2

Players should never be punished for passive, permanently on skills. Necromancer have to actively summon in town.
Better solution is to give a toggle to hide allied pets, as is already the case with some other skills1
