More stable slots when? Being restricted to three pets when we have so many different options of playstyle is a bit stifling. Great video thanks for the info!

This video is incredible. So packed full of information and it's all correct

The core hound needs a buff. Should be equal if not superior to the wind serpent. There's no reason to make a cool pet that is useless.

[Shinyshoesz]

This is HUGELY helpful and honestly what I kinda came to on my own but considering I just leveled my cat up to 50 it's a relief haha.

I have "The Rake" which is a 1.2 attack speed cat and I figured the 1.2 to 1.0 difference, for me, isn't worth trying to track down Broken Tooth who only spawns every 6-8 hrs.

I want to use Core Hound but its sad that it does less damage and has no sprint.

[rebeka]

I want a wolf, not a serpent or hound please

[ingwiafraujaz]

Great update! Is WS better than Cat in full Gnomer bis (fists)?

[koschar]

i kill more than 100 creatures lvl50 to learn dash 3 my wolf and nothing yet.Its bugged?

[Soulstice]

Are WS or Cats better for PVP as a melee hunter? If it is Cat, should I stick to a 2.0 speed Cat for the extra damage or a 1.2 speed Cat for quicker interrupts on casters?

If I do end up with a a 1.2 speed Cat as a melee hunter and bring him into ST, will it be that much less dps than the 2.0 cat? I don't feel like taming and keeping 2 separate Cats, unless it's really worth it in a dps difference.

kinda piss poor design on focus fire. more pet pigeonholing. wolves/furious howl are now dead for rest of SoD for ranged.

Jaguero Stalker stalker in stv is lvl 50 with 2.0 attack speed ;)

[murali]

I am still using Humar The Pridelord. So far I have no issue with him.

[Winterxfiles]

I feel it is a bug. basic ability should be any attack imo and they should fix it.

[Unad]

pet for leveling? that has the biggest threat? need info to anyone seeing this comment

[samclements]

What about for PvP? Best build/pet? A lot of people are honor farming right now for the rank 7 gear.

[jmdf]

Anyone else having an extremely hard time learning Dash rank 3? I swear ive been using it on CD for more than an hour on this stupid wolf....

[lurven]

Why you suggest taming a 50 jaguar pet from stv when you can't get loyalt up with a 50 pet?

[austiniser]

How do you get training points for the level 50 cat?

[qwertyuiqwertyui]

What other ability can the new core hound learn...

Also, what about marksman hunters ?

[hunter_quotus]

Excellent summary, thank you. I have a question about ST rotation. I have tried out many things from: SS Trap CS CS Trap MS MS etc to: SS Trap CS CS AS Trap CS CS AS Trap CS CS etc. still not sure which is the best option, or if there is something else worth considering. I feel like I want to Lock and Load as many Chimaera Shots as possible, but weaving in an Aimed shot means multishot misses out. Is skipping it entirely fine in this situation? I don't get online very often and each time I am looking at what I am doing the group composition varies meaning I am comparing Apples with Pears (or the mob dies really quickly lol). Ultimately it wont matter until I get into ST, but just wanted to hear your thoughts.
