Master Mind Bug

alrighty made a Merc MM did the first mish Kalinda gives where you gotta kill burk and other guy. Spawned into mish and my pet didnt Despawn ( been a while since i have played so im guessing that's meant to do that now ) finished mish hit the exit button pet still behind me yet game is telling me i dont have a pet. Clicked on him and tried to Dismiss him can't dismiss tried to summon another Merc but since i have that one still following me i can't resummon so now im stuck with a Merc that's basically nothing but someone following me that doesnt do a thing. I'm about to log out and reset it just want to put this bug out there.

(( Haha nvm Blowing myself up works better and quicker then logging out :P ))

The new feature of pets zoning with you is still a little buggy.

once you get you first upgrade power (Equip Mercenary at level 6), you can hit the 'bugged' pet with that and it will put them back onto your list.

Targeted heals and other buffs usually work as well.

Ah cool thanks much.

For me, half the time, buffs don't work either. Unless I need them, I just ignore the problem of them not being under my control. They still follow me, and when I zone into my next mission, they're back under my control.

If I DO need them, I'll just use /releasepets and then resummon and reupgrade.

Biggest Troll on the forums? I'll give you a hint:

A single target buff/heal has always done the trick for me. The targetted AOE buffs generally only bring the targetted pet back under your control... at least, that's what I've read from other players on these boards.

If your secondary is anything but Trick Arrow or Dark, you should have a single target buff or heal available by level 4.

I know that a force field bubble isn't a buff that works although the Thermal shields do the trick. I'm not sure what's up with that. Apparently some buffs work and some don't. Using Equip directly on the one not under my control always works but sort of endurance heavy.

Nice to know the /releasepets command. Cool.

Last night we had 3 MM's in our group and everytime they exited a mission the pets came out of the door with them and then 3 seconds later keeled over dead. It was quite odd. I transition faster than one of the MM players so I frequently saw her pets die both IN the mission as she exited, and then a few seconds later OUTSIDE the mission.

That was new. Before yesterday the only bug I'd seen with pets was the lack of control which wasn't a huge deal.
