pet buff checking

Post by Jon100 » Thu Nov 06, 2003 6:49 am

Is there any way to check which buffs your pet currently has up?

(Aside from /pet health and string checking)

Given that there are now buff icons in your UI for your pets buffs, your client HAS to know what those buffs are, to report them, so yes, it is possible, but whether it's available atm is a different matter.

Wouldn't /pet report and a little string handling couped with some #events do it?

not quite sure what you want...

/pet report health is easy enough to type...or you can look in the pet buff window now to see the pet buffs. What kinda macro do you want?

Correct. I would like an easy way to check what buffs the pet currently has inside a macro.

I have meant to that for some time, but havent gotten around to it, Ill do it after the patch the 16th I think... its quite trivial... something like $pet(buff,xxx)

For the time being you could just make a /pet report health call within the macro and have events extract the current buffs on the pet.
