Question Regarding Backstabber Perk with the Warden Bear

Friend and I were just discussing this question and couldn't decide on a conclusive answer. If I have the Backstabber CP perk on, and I activate the Bear ultimate (Guardian's Wrath, the heavy attack), is the boost in damage dependent on my positioning or my pet bear's?
I ask because I can be behind the enemy, but my bear will be in front, and when I activate it, it comes from him, and he can be in any other direction.

Excellent question and i just did a quick forum search for you but couldn't find a definitive answer (yet) .TeruKisuke wrote: »Friend and I were just discussing this question and couldn't decide on a conclusive answer.

My GUESS would be that the game-code measures "backstab proc" as per the player positioning , not ai pet's.
But i haven't tested it yet either. Very interesting question though.

TeruKisuke✭✭✭✭@NeeScrolls That's what we kind of assumed too, but there was just enough reasonable doubt that we couldn't say for sure... Pets are always a fun debate on how they function. And the bear is a tad different from Sorcerer pets, since it's an ultimate... I always try to stand behind the enemy, but never really knew if it mattered as far as using my ult when it's up.0
