I think this is the best pet there is if you have the patience to level it all the way.

After reading this article I bit the bullet and trained one of the ugliest pets in the game lol. I now not only think he’s cute but he it the best pet I have had and I wanted to say thanks. In raids he far out dps any of my friends favourite cats but sometimes does double what they turn out. WOW!! I have kept my cat and use him for BGs (great for prowling and sticking on a flag to mind…love that trick) which he has good skills for but on raids and in instances it will only be my Ravager called Fluffy

I prefer my albino crab whom i’v named Pinchy he’s got armor points that rival some warriors and easily take on 2 to 3 mobs on at a time.

An Update for Lynne!

We want to clarify why your battle boar is faster than your other pets.

Apparently there is either a bug or an unannounced change in pet traveling speed since patch 2.3

It seems that pets tamed BEFORE patch 2.3 will be able to keep up with you no matter what the pet might be. But pet tamed AFTER patch 2.3 cannot.

If you were to go tame another battle boar now, it would also fall behind when you run for very long.

This explains why we didn’t understand what you were trying to say, since our hunters have all had their pets for a long time and the speed change was something we just had not seen in the game because we all trained our pets long before patch 2.3

It doesn’t seem that this problem will be going away any time soon, so you may just have to live with it.

If you recall, in patch 1.9 all pet attack speeds were normalized so all the Rake and Broken Tooth owners out there suddenly had very normal pets.

This may also be the case with pet following speeds from now on. If you have a pet from before patch 2.3, just consider yourself lucky!

As soon as you tame a pet all of the stats it had in the wild revert to base values for that pet family. Thus, the difference between your beast lore readings and the info from the pet details tab.

The damage each pet does is effected by pet level, pet skills, and hunter talents. There isn’t a direct relationship between pet damage and hunter gear, but there is a correlation between hunter gear and pet life and armor.

Only BM hunters can compete for truly max pet damage. MM and SV spec pets are simply not ever going to be anywhere close. As a matter of fact, with all gear being the same between two hunters, a BM spec will do more DPS than the other two trees because of that big boost to pet damage.

Before anyone complains too much, keep in mind that we said “with the same gear!”

Hi guys..great guide. I been in a position to capture a ravenger…just wondering, when you use beast lore the dam reads 1 thing .Then when you capture it, its much lower. Whats the reason for this.How can I get the max dam from a pet? I am BM hunter spec lvl 70. BTW my son has a cat that does over 300 dam that I couldnt believe. He also a 70, BM spec. His gear is better and was wondering igf that effects it>
