Anyone else had this issue?

Cause this is getting annoying.

<---DS/FF and loving it, surprisingly, but for one thing.

I bubble my minions before I walk in the door, and when I get in the bubbles are gone and I have to start all over again.

There's no lag other than the usual load time, which is only a few seconds.

Reported bug, or WAI? Thanks!


Currently playing:
The Domestic: Broom/WP
Shadowhex: Dark Control/Dark Affinity
Defenestration Lass: Grav/Kin

I think that is because when you enter a new mission or zone, the game is actually summoning new pets when you zone. The system tracks updates, and active pets, but not much else. Also if you summon a replacement pet, while the rest are upgraded, then the replacement pet gets upgraded once you enter the mission.

There are still quite a few lag bugs with pets. I get the vator bug and also sometimes I have to retrain them. I always put them away before exit and recall them on next mission now.

It used to be worse. The pets didn't follow you in at all.

And you had to buff each pet individually with both upgrades.

Newspaper missions were HELL!

Unless I'm mistaken, (Dev Approval please?) the current system for MM henchmen is that when you zone it checks what guys you got and if they're equipped, upgraded, that kinda thing. It simply auto-resummons. On the plus column, they always start fresh on health and endurance. It does NOT check for secondaries, WoP, thermal shields, that sort.

I'm just glad I haven't seen the elevator bug since the new issue, and they don't get 'lost' anymore. This also why I'll probably never go thermal, I just don't have the patience for all that shielding.
