How long has it been since update that allowed us to use 5 pets at the same time? About 2 or 3 years ago? Will we ever get that number increased? I was grinding at Sycraia for over 50 hours, and every time I killed a pack of mobs, I had to wait a bit for my pets to pick everything up, or I had to “help them” manually. Since few weeks now I am grinding towards HP potion and at wolfs it is even worse. Waiting for pets to pick everything up all the time is just horrendous … I always have my pets set to agile, so they consume more feed, but lower pick-up time cooldown. Still 5 pets with 2,25s pick up time just is not enough anymore.

Can we maybe get update that allows us to use 6 or 7 pets at the same time? Or maybe change how pets pick up our loot and make is area based. For example, pet would not pick up just one item at a time, but all drops around 10m radius or something like this. Maybe lower cooldown from pets even more … there are many ways how to improve them, and I named just a few.

I just think that something should be done with this. Since that last update about pets from years ago, more and more players have better GS and we are getting new areas with a lot of mobs. Surely it sounds reasonable, to also adjust and improve pets and pick-up mechanic.

How about you guys leave those zones y'all clearly outgear. And go to zones that are designed for y'all. I bet you'll complain much less about losing a lot of karma PKing.

I will move from Blood wolfs when they add piece for infinity potion to other places.

Since those low level spots are the only way to get infinity potions right now I'm going to continue with my grind there. Trust me, once I get my drop I'm never going back to that dreadful place.

Stop blaming players for gridning in those zones and blame PA for this mazin idea that you can get rare drops only from specific mobs in beginner zones.

if you have 5 bird types on you will find that looting is not a problem because they loot from a longer distance than other pets. 

the time you spend lingering for the other pets to finish looting could be the time you spent traveling to other mobs and aggro'ing them.

give birds a try. 

Exactly this^

I even have this issue in thornwood to a lesser degree.  I would be ok with any of the solutions you offered..even a combination of those solutions.  I also will happily not grind the lower zones if I ever get my remaining pot piece.  It would be great if they permanently expanded the variety of zones where those pieces drop, however I fear they would let it negatively affect the drop rates of existing items in the other zones.

First off Sycraia is a ghost town, and you need 269 to be efficent at it.  There really aren't many people MASSIVELY out gearing that spot.

Second off.  The only reason higher geared players are grinding Kagtums/Ronaros/Sherekhan/Tshira/Manshaums is because that's where the Infinite potions drop, we are not having fun grinding there making 30% of the silver we could be making elsewhere, but that is the only place to get the infinite potion pieces.  Myself and all the rest of the high geared players are only there until the potion piece drops, then we are gone.  

Third, Elvia places, In particular Castle Ruins, a 3 man team doesn't pick up all the loot as soon as 2 members get a weapon at the same time.  Solo when you get a weapon at ANY of the solo spots even at 250 AP, you out grind your pets by a lot.

not needed, as there are classes that cant overclear that much due to shit pve balance. :D :D :D :D 

pets actually limit it somewhat.

Well I got my Kagtum drop yesterday, so I'm moving aways from wolfs.

It's a bit better at Sherekhan, but like other players mentioned, problem is even at higher AP zones.

Also one good idea someone mentioned on reddit ... New system where you have to combine specific number of T4 pets into one magical pet that would instantly pick up everything without any cool down. That way you value of T4 pets wouldn't go down.

That way we would get something that we want, and PA would get even more money from people buying pets and going for T4 to get that magical pet.

Just an idea :)
