The reason why pets can't be ordered around is mostly due to the fact that way way back in the day, it began causing crashes galore. Not sure if they -fixed- that or not... but now, the 'order' command is a vampire ability. Go figure >P

well, unless your pet is really well trained, I doubt its going to listen to you, and most of the time, I don't think it's going to understand you. Now a command animal skill for the scout tiers, would be neat.

Some 'pets' don't need to be trained, ie: religion familiars, or even -sentient charmed critters-. But some commands even a dim witted pet can understand. ie: *points at Zelos and says, "Sic 'im!"*

You guys are focusing on something completely different... I'm talking about using pet emote as like
petemote wags his tail and barks at Daklore.
A young dog wags his tail and barks a Daklore.
They woudln't get RPXP and you wouldn't get it for interacting with them unless somebody else was in the room like it is now.
I've never been fond of ordering pets to do things... But it might be nice if they had spells like the mobs that we face. The system randomly generates spells based off your religion and class... I dunno just a thought

All dogs would be slaughtered by Daklore. As for a petemote ability, it'd be nifty, sure... but that's what -smote- is for. So ha! Granted, you have to have your own name in it, but even someone with a hint of creativity could use it to do this.

Unless its a bug - smote isnt a standard user command. I just tried it this morning and get the "Huh?"

SMOTE has to be granted before you get more than "huh?"
petemote could be cool.
I'll have to check on purchased pets to see what profession they get assigned, but I think most of the familiars get *your* profession and should be randomly casting attack spells (if you have any). You might not see any messaging if you use battlespam. Maybe I'll have them do a "Master, I'm out of mana" if they run out of mana. Anyway, I'll check on it because I do think at least some of them should be casting spells.

on the grounds of religion familiars... Compared to you, a black widow (a fighter)... I'm -not- a fighter, damnit. But hey, it seems to get the extra attacks anyway. Not like I have any attack spells worth using -anyway-. I still say Smote works good enough for a 'petemote'... or hell, even a normal emote for the inventive. But that's just me.

maybe they should have to spend a certian amount of RPXP to gain the petemote control then?

Sure, let's set it at 150,000 RPXP... or more.
