On Al’akir P3, Pet keep despawning, it just doesn’t work on the Z axis at all. On Sinestra, Pet pathing is super bugged, sometimes it melee but is OOR for abilities like shadowbite…if your pet attack the egg, there’s some high chance it will get stuck in lava OOR again from sinestra. summoning pet back in melee will put it back in position but this is not normal. On Nef : I almost need a pet macro ’ /petfollow’ on my main bar to make it work from the jumping/pillar.
Can we expect fix in the near future ? it looks like all Z axis/ boss hit box issues from what I see but thats just my pov.
To make your pet do proper dmg on sinestra, you have to manually command him to move to a certain spot and then press attack and never leave him from there.
It’s hilarious, how bugged this 15 years old game is. Sadly even many free private servers do not have this issue. These issues made me stop playing a hunter in cata classic…
Some tips for varying pet classes.
Al’Akir:
On p3 it will despawn so you gotta make the most out of ur pet until then.
Nef:
Dismiss pet & spawn it when you jump down.
Pillar phase make sure you have pet move binded & place it ontop of the mob, that way it will hit it & won’t be hit by lava & since you commanded it to move there it won’t go swimming when you hit nef in the air.
For the rest of the fight, make sure you keep an eye out where it is & move it accordingly to avoid the fire.
Sinestra:
If you have a hunter make him pull the boss & then insta feign death, that way you get 30 seconds to move yourself into position. Again keep pet move binded & move your pet close to Sinestra, when you go to the back for the adds, move the pet there. Then move it back to the boss.
Manually move it again to the egg & then back to boss.
If you do not have a hunter on Sinestra as a DK you have 2 options.
Skip Army all together
Cast Army, but do not touch the boss until they’re in melee range, then they will also dps, they stop when you hit the boss & get in combat.
