Infinite timed aura's on pets

[Terin01]

I am using this on a mage pet and beast pet both have suspend minion rank 2 just get an aura on them then suspend them then aura doesn't have to run anymore around them they will have it for as long as they live no matter how many times you pocket them, can be useful for pet tanking.

Anyone able to confirm?

I've had this happen on my pet as well. Sk pet.

Works on my shammy pet

I have had this happen on my pet but never....ever thought anything of it until I read this post. I have also had this happen with bard songs. Not sure which one(s) can't really look into is since my guild doesn't have any active bards atm.

So any buff that goes in the song window is potentially capable of staying on a pet infinitely?

Has anyone tried using the cleric heal over time Sacred Elixir? It seems like it would be a very easy way to have constant healing without having to dump mana into it.

I just assumed this was well known, i've been using it forever. But yet it works. Get as many auras at once as you can on a raid and suspend your pet. Then pull him out later when you are soloing and he has them.

Most often used when casting your 10% damage mod aura on your pet. I suspend him immediatly so it bugs and acts as a permanent damage mod. It no longer affects the pets around him.. but who cares, you are soloing.

Sounds good to me. Will poke Fry or Vyper.

i noticed this first when i used the shroud technique of loggin shrouded to keep pet .. then i went thru a series of spells i tried to get to work on my self like hots , panther etc... of course no go.. but wouldve been nice to haave 1.2k a tick hot perma ..

It didnt work on yourself, but has anyone tried specifically casting it on the pet and suspending it?

Did you bother reading the first post?

Yea, I read that post. I was referring specifically to HoTs and the response from bigluvbsg wasn't clear, so I was asking for clarification.

I don't care if it didnt work on himself... I wanted to know if he was referring to the pet or himself the player.

I don't usually post indescriminately because I've seen the flaming that goes on. If you don't see how that above comment could be misinterpreted, then I can't help you.

**edit** a few typos

Doesn't work (the HoT) like that for pets. I would think the only reason it works is because aura's don't have a visible timer, so when the pet is unsuspended it doesn't have anything to refer back to.. and never fades.

Good point but shamans do get an aa ancestral aid.. i only up to version 2 of it , clicks for around 800 a tick .. displays like aura what you think on that, ill try that in a few

good idea... let us know how that works

Cleric/Shaman ward may also stick if you can try that.

Excellent idea. This would trivialize any events that require curing, if the pets could be healed in addition to just a MT/RT setup. The fight would take longer, but it's something to be considered, that's for sure.

Edit: ok maybe not Trivialize, but could add dps without having to worry about healing them from a dot.

once i logged back on the pets hot aura showed a timer so nogo on that , now the ward im not to sure about will have to see
