My favorite pet is a bear but since they attack slower than every other class, I don't charm then anymore. :*(
Please anet... buff the bears. Makes no sense to me that they suck more than other pets.

Please.... Make BEARS as good as all other pets!

/signed even though i have never used a bear. It seems fair that every pet should be balanced. But maybe the bear attacks slower but deals more damage, have to look into it.

the bear got a special skill but without any effect (dunno if it has an effect when the bear is not charmed yet)

well, if you have a paragon in your party, the bear is much more usefull than any other pet, as he is the only one with an attack skill he profits from all "next attack" shouts and chants.

I'm willing to bet the paragon synergy is unintentional..bears being in Prophecies and all.

/signed I want a black bear, but i hate the stupid brutal mauling that does nothing

/signed. I don't want to get into PuGs (not that I would anyway), and say 'Oh, you need to kick someone so that there's a Paragon to make my bear useful!' No. I want bears to be as good as everything else without having to rely on other people.
