Now I haven't used my pet in a while, but I remember when I did, there was no indicator showing that Call of Haste was in use. Really frustrating, since I didn't know when it was about to end. Is this a bug, or just how the game is? I'm used to Warrior shouts showing on-screen, but is it different for Rangers?

yes, I believe so.
don't know why, it would be more convenient if it did show. would be a good suggestion for Sardelac.

Isn't call of haste the skill which only recharges once it's expired?

CoH lasts 30 seconds. Recharge is 25. When it recharges, hit it again.

What could be put for the Call of Haste skill? "Haste!" or something? I can't think of anything sensible :P

May I suggest "Get moving you lazy mongrel, I don't feed you for nothing!!" as the onscreen graphic for Call of Haste?

I suppose 'Leerooooy Jenkiiiins!' is out of the question?

...well you are making the pet move faster towards enemies, after all...

ehhh when call of haste is activated..look directly at your pet..whatever it is.. there head is straight.. but when COH is used there head turns to the left..thus the shout was used.. and if there head stays at that posiition the COH is still in effect!

Err, I meant the icon that appears onscreen, then flashes when the duration is ending. Heh.

There is an icon that shows you when it ends. Seriously, its the skill itself. You never have problems with CoH because you can overlap...unless of course you get interrupted.

Since it is a shout, how come it doesn't affect any of your party list member's pets at all and only yours?

Brilliant people. What about Symbiotic bond or Call or Protection. Both last considerably longer than their recharge (SB can last more than 4x as long). Is there a way to know that i need to recast these aside from having an egg timer beside my keyboard?

or they could simply have pet shouts display as other shouts already do.
