Pet Buffs

Post by Logos »

I was curious which pets did which buff and so did a little quick research tonight.

Here's a handy flow chart for hunters:

Here's a link to a Machinima video explaining it all as well:

That's pretty nice. I'll have to keep that in mind...

Saved to desktop for quick referencing :-) that's very handy for figuring out what else I need to tame.

What about Foxes? They have a new ability:

Tailspin FOX - Melee Range - Instant -25 sec cooldown
Your fox twirls its tail around, kicking up an obscuring cloud of dust, causing all enemies within 10 yards to have their melee and ranged attack speed reduced by 20% for 30 sec.

And yet, they aren't mentioned in that chart. I would think this ability would be a priority on some fights. Anyone know who else provides this debuff?

That's Thunder Clap (http://www.wowhead.com/spell=6343) for warriors.

Druids can get the same effect with the talent Infected Wounds (http://www.wowhead.com/spell=48483), and paladins with the talent Judgments of the Just (http://www.wowhead.com/spell=53695). Death knights get this with Icy Touch (http://www.wowhead.com/spell=45477).

Hopefully all of our tanks are using their ability to slow down the enemies' attacks. >.>

Well, Infected Wounds is one of the casualties of my attempt to make a feral build that can do both cat and bear. So any time I'm tanking, I wouldn't mind a fox spinning its tail at the boss.

(There's a joke here about "fox" and "tail" but I'm sure that joke has been made.)

it should be noted that whoever made that graphic forgot/didn't know that warriors can commanding shout for the stam buff, but we have to choose between that and battle shout (str+agi). (so the silithid may not be necessary if you've got a warrior)
