Pets combat bug- impossible to sap

Hey there,

My team is having some issue to zap hunter/warlocks in arenas. Most of the times they just send their pet on me and that makes them instantly inmune to sap (in combat) even when the pet is 50 yards away, not even on my LoS and when Im still out of combat.

Are we the only ones who have seen this? Is it a bug or just a TBC mechanic?

What do you mean by zap? Chain lightning? But you’re a priest not a shaman…

Incapacitates the target for up to 25 sec. Must be stealthed. Only works on Humanoids that are not in combat. Any damage caused will revive the target. Only 1 target may be sapped at a time."

Not in combat being the important part here locks and hunters get into combat the second their pet is running towards anyone

Why would they get in combat if their pet is still not in combat with anyone yet

Becouse they have still given a attack command to their pet, it worked that way up untill 3 years ago in retail as well so its not a bug its just a designe dession

Pets are utterly broken in WoW. Always have been. Luckily, until WOTLK they are made of paper, so killing them in a stunlock behind a pillar is actually a reasonable strategy.
