Pretty sure, you can only get a skill once so you can't have it on your bar twice. Try it and let me know!

well thats the thing i dont want to lose my current pet. i have to get a different pet and give it to the dude to get it. but then that makes me think i need charm animal to do it. or maybe he doesnt give me it because i already have it... =/

I think that's the case. I read somewhere else that someone did this quest and only ended up with a low level kitty that they didn't want. As they were part of the great bear hunt I wasn't paying too close of attention.

I don't think so. I believe I read someone charmed another animal and it replaces your current one. So if you charm a lvl 3 bird, your lvl 11 goes away and you start the lvl 3 bird. Then they get EXP and gain lvls.

If we are talking about the quest that Master Ranger Nente gives you in Post-Searing just outside of Ascalon, I already had a Melandru's Stalker (level 9). He didn't take it away or nothing and I got the skills and exp (for free).

What I would like to know is why do you have to keep the charm pet spell all the time The pets already yours and if you remove the spell Poof your pet is gone I would think comfort pet would be fine for keepin you pet with you. then your not wasting a spot for charm pet that you can't use because you aready have a pet

Well, a pet that is around your level is a very powerful sidekick. There has to be a price to pay. Although IMO Charm Animal and Comfort Animal could be combined into 1 skill.

you cant even attempt to tame a new pet if you already have one charmed. you have to give it to the tamer before you can attempt to charm another

I agree with both of your ideas, Lasher.

Actually I think Revive Animal is better than Comfort Animal: beastmastery is quasi-useful and healing a level 15 pet for 20 hitpoints is laughable.

No way. If you want to use one of your abilities, you can allocate a skill spot for it like the rest of us. You should be glad you don't have to keep recharming your pet and that it doesn't drain energy to keep him charmed (This is how it works in some games).

Fire doesn't rain down from heaven whenever mobs approach me just because I'm a pyro, I have to put it on my skill bar AND actually click it AND use energy.
