I thought I had to share this....the strangest experience I have to date playing GW
I was with a PUG in Kryta doing the mission to get into Lions Arch, we are going OK until the last battle across the swamp to the boss dude and the Necrid Horseman, where we we get it wrong, get spanked and all of us bar a lvl 9 Me/Mo die. there are only two sorcerors, the boss and the horseman left. We think about bailing but decide to see if the Me/Mo can get anywhere near us to rez.
Somewhere along the way we recruited this warthog thing called Oink. I'm not sure where, but the lil fella has been tagging along, and is still not giving up the fight. For some reason the undead don't recognise him as a threat, so go back to being passive, despite the continual head charging of the lil fella Oink.
He takes out the first Sorceror...and then the second, now we are all ROFLOAO at this point and someone has christened him the 55 Oink.
Not content with this, he proceeds to attack the Necrid Horseman and batters him to within an inch of his un-life, allowing the Monk to Rez us and we take the Necrid and the boss man down and complete the mission.
So I'd just like to say thanks for saving our azzes to the 55 Oink...not only did he complete the mission for us, but made me laugh so hard I had to stop playing for about 10 mins afterwards.
55 Oink !!

Hehe that's hilarious 
I love that little pig, I named my own pig Oink as an homage. Now I have to change it to "55hp Pig". Thanks for the story!

Oink is an NPC that follows you for the bonus - which you didn't activate - so he continued to follow you.

and he is invincible.
He saved my butt a couple times in that swamp

If you talk to oink in battle, he'll respond to you in english!

It's a pity that Oink isn't one of the henchies you can take.

I still think aidan should have him as pet...
Mister Overhill
Don't know why, but warthogs seem to fly under the radar a lot of the time. I thought oink was a hoot the first time I went through there, so when I made my latest character, W/R, I chose a warthog as a pet. A lot of times it seems that he is the only one in the party that doesn't take damage.

Oink is eternal. Oink never dies. Oink FTW!

Oink is the pet of Chuck Norris.

Oink is Balthazars warrior... infact he gets free trips to the Fissure of Woe... you should see that pigs fissure armor
Jetdoc
Kryta rocks for that mission and for the Divinity Coast mission. In both you get super-powered NPC's that distract the undead and don't steal drops from you.

I had a similar experience once. My team got killed in the mission, and after we were dead Oink started killed all the enemies around, so at least we got revenge although we all died :s
I took 2 screenies of it as well:

no its aidans pet
but nothing stops him from changing after he noticed how strong and unbudgable oink is
Besides I really wished that as a hench you could get a beastmaster ranger and that some of those skills get beefed a tad... I so miss a consistent knockdown
. All the good ones are so conditional.

Oink is seriously my favorite character in the entire game. That pig is awesome and one of the reasons I got a warthog as my W/R's pet. I named him Mr Fatty (a running joke with me among my friends), and he'd be right up there tanking with me. He also enjoyed humping one of my guild mate's legs, but that's another story. . . .

why else do u think spirit of blathazar has a pig head brandished on his chest armor?
now every warrior should salvage their fissures/15karmors and go craft a 1.5k platemail to pay respect to the invici-oink!

Hmm, my Dire Moa Bird vs Oink?
From that story methinks Oink would pwn my bird. Btw, there IS DEFINITLY something going on with AI detection of pets. For example, in a B/P build group for tombs, out of five pets. My bird is ALWAYS first to die, and if anyone has that warthog, it is last or close to last to die...
So umm... They can only see tall pets? lol guess my birdy aint worth more then a platter on Turkey Day, eh?! *thinks about raising a wittle piggy.
LOL. enjoy.
