Endless pet mana

Verrine · May 26, 2007, 08:47 AM

Somthing ive noticed since the new patch and having pets disapear when mounted and then repear when we dismount, is that if your pet is low on mana and you mount up then instantly dismount your pet will repear with a full mana bar.

Obviously this is very usefull for affliction locks with dark pact.

It can be usefull for other locks such as demon spec with felguard if you dont feel like life taping to get yer pet back up to full.

Kinda makes up for them messing with gaining mana from the pet before its health and mana went to full before the patch.

I just hope they dont adjust it.

Yeah, I came on to spread the word myself, but you beat me to it :-D It's a great little trick..

At least for me this is untrue. The pet generates mana at the same rate when you are mounted as when you are not. Getting my pet to use up his mana then mounting and unmounting has resulted for me in my pet having little more mana than he did before. As far as I can tell they all just generate mana and health as fast as they do when you're out of combat.

The fix for pets geting damaged or lost whist riding has an interesting side effect. I imagine my imp just jumps into my soul pouch for the ride, but whilst there something interesting happens... obvioulsy he finds a stale crust to eat and some forgotten water bottle, because he comes back fully refreshed.

So Mount >> dismount >> Happy imp with a full tummy of mana >> happy warlock!

Try this one at home kids!

Well .. only usefull in PvP though. And in long battle or world PvP.

I have seen this with the Felguard but it is very rare. Only happened twice in about 50 mount/dismounts.

Strange,,

Mabey give it a couple of secs after mouting before dismount plunk.

But ive seen it go from zero to full a lot faster using the mount / dismount than waiting for gen regen of the pet.

It's such a pity that you cant mount up in instances.
