Ooh I think there will be a lot of pissed off mages who spent the time to get the "keep pet" ability in Alternate Advancement. Ouch.

Wewt, about time mages could keep pets when zoning! ;)

[Raznax]

...umm... there is no 'keep pet' AA :P there is /pet hold which makes them stop doing anything... but this patch is the first time mages get to keep their pet... (if I had this ability before I quit... I might not have... I could have ran to zone line... regened the water elem and got back in there without having to resummon and regen mana (whih takes a whole lot longer than water hp)

Mages get the AA "Suspend Minion". This doesn't enable them to zone and keep their pet. It allows them to travel in the same zone without there pet and then resummon it for no mana cost.

Pets will zone with their masters.

"Suspend Minion"

Thats the bugger. Meh.. I havn't even started on AA's, and only rejoined EQLive 3 days back for the sake of being able to packet collect. ;)

This patch does indeed break the emulator. Patching this with scorp's patch WILL NOT WORK. So be sure that you have your back up directory intact. :wink:
