Zodiac Pet

When these pets where first introduced, I could swear I was able to call a given class of zodiac, e.g. newborn, adult, legendary, throughout the day to get which ever buff I needed so I could get a TP buff while grinding and then after that buff wore off call up another of the same class to get the buff I wanted for siege. A while back I noticed I can only get one zodiac class buff per day, so what is the use of having multiple types of zodiac pets?

It has always been 1 per age per day. You get 1 newborn, 1 adult, 1 legend per day. The use of having multiple pets is that you decide what bonus you get for that age for today.

Oh, and people who have more than 3 classes are clinically insane.

it would be nice to be able to use all your different pets each day. obviously cannot stack more than 1 buff of each age, or use each buff more than once, but PvP pet for SW then another pet for runs would be nice.
my r/p can outdps r/m. your name is stupid.

mages should stack dex. word.

Yeah definitely. It seems so wasteful to make all of them when you're really only ever going to realistically use one/two buffs all the time. You should be able to use different buffs every day.

I think this would fall under possible IS items:

Newborn Zodiac Reset - Frees up the selected Zodiac buff slot; MUST be an unused Newborn Zodiac pet.

Adult Zodiac Reset - Frees up Adult Zodiac buff slot; next Buff MUST be an unused Zodiac buff.

Legendary Zodiac Reset - Frees up Legendary Zodiac buff slot; next Buff MUST be an unused Zodiac buff.

ie, if you've used Star Amulet of Talent, you can reset that Adult Zodiac buff slot but you would NOT be able to re-use the Star Amulet of Talent buff. So if you had an adult pet w/ Star Amulet of Ability, you could get that 2% buff.

Newborn Zodiac Reset prevents you from getting the newborn buff from the same Zodiac species, ie if you use Pisces, you can't use Pisces again.

Being able to use 2-3 each day would be enough I think, and maybe limit them into categories and one from each or something. Cause only ones I ever use is the all attributes for sw and runs. And I have like 7 full sets. Seems like a waste to have made them all.

I have over 10 pets now (going for the dragon pet) but I can not remember what I selected for adult & legendary pets buff, what would be nice is to see something that would tell me before hand so I can best choose what pet to select.

there is an addon that you can set to show what pet gives which buff, can be found here Would ofc require you to go through each one and find the buff then edit ityourself, but could help you atleast find the one that gives which buff you want :)

Cenre, that addon was updated, it should show you what was selected for it without the manual process now.
A real sysadmin knows how to change the time.
If you make the same mistake while trying to make up for the previous one, you are doing something wrong.

As much as I'd love to say I offer consulting services, the scope of things broken is too large.

i 100% agree there shouldnt even be a once per day limit... if someone has put the work effort forth for all of them should be able to use them whenever imo.
hey a run started let me use these buffs, oh its siege time, let me use these buffs, oh someone wants to farm, lets use these buffs, the buffs arent game breaking by any means, but are very useful of course.

i guess you could still implement once a day PER PET too could work. i guess i could live with that haha.

anyone that has zodiac pets pushed off during a boss burn, probably would feel same way... all would love a second chance or even be able to use other pets if it did happen.

I think zodiacs are like angels and stuff now and they can't be removed by buff cap. At least I haven't lost mine in a long time and I've lost buffs that were after them. Lost w/m 60 elite though last night xD
