Pet Implementation Suggestion

This isn't really a post where I suggest most of the "improve pets" ideas, as those have already been sufficiently covered in my opinion.


However, I wish to combine two concerns.

1) Charm Animal takes up a slot and does nothing.
2) Pets are too uncontrollable.


I propose having Charm Animal pop up an options menu similar to this:

1. Attack my target.
2. Defend my target.
3. Stay close to me. (Also serves as retreat from battle)
4. Attack at will.


This will also allow speed for viability in PvP. Example: Charm Animal in slot 8--to cause the pet to attack your target, you merely have to hit 8, 1.



Of course, there are other concerns, but I think this would be good for both implementing commands on an already limited number of hotkeys available and also adding the control interface so many want.

You really need to check the other threads before posting. This has been suggested about a million times. Not the popup menu but the idea of commands. You should add it to the other thread.

I actually did see that and took two of the concerns from it to post here. Though, looking again, I suppose it could go in there. Thank you.
