Can anybody confirm the amount of Hunter RAP that is added to pet skills?

@Shagrat-Turalyon

you’re right, in beta atm it does stay at its current level in the stables, it levels to 5 levels below your chars level once you remove it. I just checked it out with one of my stabled pets.

just played around with my wolf in beta and in bm spec its furious howl is up 100% of the time. it has a 10 sec duration but a 7 sec cooldown. that combined with rabid and call of the wild is pretty tempting, just wish dogs did higher base damage.

Hope the raptors get a bit more loving before launch. Blizzard has admitted they like cats being (over)used though, so false hope :<

The Poison Spit change for Serpents is rather nice buff anyways :] Their damage alone was very lackluster.

There is a lot of balancing needed here yet.
Someone already mentioned the cat vs raptor as being very one sided.

Take a in depth look at bear vs gorilla now. The bear’s ability will do half the damage, cost twice the focus, and lacks the bonus threat when compaired to the gorilla. Oh yeah, and it can only hit 3 targets. With the bonus threat and multiple targets, the thunderstomp should really do less dmg.

So again, I hope Bliz sees that, and I hope they’ll work on it.

I think the change to Crocks makes them a viable AOE tank pet again

Bears and Gorillas and Carrion Birds rock now.

AoE pet tanks FTW.

I thought it will stay its current level while it remains in the stable but as soon as you make it your active pet it gets auto-levelled then.

Hi, sorry if its been asked before but.. If I tame a level 37 for example now (pre 3.0 on the live realms) and I have it in my stable, when 3.0 goes live would it just ding upto 65 then or would it just stay at 37?
