Q u o t e:
I'm sorry this happened to you. Pets are not meant to keep the attack speed they use when "wild"; the fact that they do is unfortunately a bug that the developer team is working on repairing.


There it is... so what do we have now? Pursuit speed? No doubt that will be next.

   Please read the second post in that thread, where I say that it is NOT the intent to make all attack speeds the same -- the "wild" speed may simply differ from the "tamed" speed.

Q u o t e:
YOU all our mis-reading her statement. The spiders have a 1.5 attack speed in the wild. They are meant to be 1.0 when tamed. The fact that they are now 1.5 is a BUG THAT THEY ARE FIXING. Everyone calm down. Although i really would have hoped that something like this was caught on the test server. Who were the hunters they invited to that anyway. Considering all of the ninja bug/nerfs that slipped thorugh on us.


Actually, you mis-read me -- I'm sorry. The fact that pets retain their wild attack speed is a bug. There is supposed to be a wild and a tamed speed (NOT THE SAME NUMBER FOR EVERY PET) and the developers are working on fixing that. Because the Spire Spiderling was changed as a mob, however, the Hunters with the spider as their pet also got hit with the change.

Q u o t e:
Ok, but can you be more explicit with this information? Are you stating that hunter spider pets' attack speeds being changed from 1.0 to 1.5 is a bug, and that this change will be reverted for hunter pets, making tamed spiders once again .0 attack speed?


No, that isn't what I'm saying. I do not have specifics on this particular instance and am not saying that the spiders will revert to the 1.0 speed. I will look into getting more information for you on this subject, however.
