If there is any type of aoe effect on the skill, warden pets are immune to it. So if you have the elite that makes shadow stab hit 2 enemies, that may be the cause.

Its must not be considered an aoe cos it still needs a target to be casted upon and not area on ground. At least it should damage the Chiron if it gets direct hit from the skill and not the spreading hits.

You da man, that explains everything. r/s wrath attack makes shadowstab hit 2. not a true aoe, but makes sense now.

same applies to scout's piercing arrow & reflective shot. Both do zero damage to warden pets & pet egg pets. Anything that hits more than 1 target is classified as an AOE. Thus making S/M's blazing energy & the warrior item set skill weapon guard much less pointless.

All warden pets are immune to "aoe" hits. So are pets from cavy eggs, and a few vanity pets. To my knowledge, the priest fairies are not immune.

I agree it is bumkiss that certain "aoe" hits require a target to fire, ie potws, piercing arrow, ss, cleave.

As a wd/s in siege it seems my chiron gets none of the defense benefits I have as it always gets hit for twice the amount of damage as me, both critical and normal hits, according to the combat log. So realistically just use single target hits on the warden pets, because a "class balance" to adjust their immunity would greatly affect pve far more than both wardens or players running with wardens would appreciate.

I think thats just magic attacks. I do remember Chiron having quite a bit of Pdef. But yeah, my fireball hits Chiron like it hits a level 1 bunny.
