would be nice if pet would sit when I do.
Send this idea to the General Discussion Forum Monday about Noon Eastern so that someone at Blizzard will actually read it.
Or give back
https://wowwiki.fandom.com/wiki/Stay
“Stay” is a pet command that tells the pet to remain where it is while the pet’s master (a hunter or warlock) moves away. A defensive pet will still attack if something attacks it; and an aggressive pet will still aggro any mob that comes too close…
which would put the pet in a sit position.
Does it actually sit? I have never seen it and I use Stay often.
Its a removed command
Confused it with move to.
Found it https://wow.gamepedia.com/Pet_commands
says it was removed, but still in the pet spell book.
However, it just tells your pet not to move from a spot and stands in place. There are already models with sit positions and those would not require a new rigging, but all the others would be time consuming.
I just checked, it’s on the pet’s spell bar.
Stay is replaced with move to, which is a vastly superior ability.
It’s actually still there. But you are right about Move-To.
Move-to and stay is fun to mess with stealth. It’s easy to trick people into thinking your location is somewhere else by using pet as bait.
I use it sometimes to set up mobs for my attacks, generally to have my pet attack from the side opposite of me. Same set-up will work to pull a mob or yo-yo a mob 'twixt me and my pet. Also, I occasionally use it to get my pets cold nose to an unoccupied pc of floor and outa players bums! Embarassing…
