Small bug with pet AA buffs : EverQuest 2 Premium Discussions

I didn't notice if there was a previous post on this or not. If so, then you have my permission to call me names.

I use my scout only buff, "Minion's Zeal, 13.9% melee crit chance bonus", on my tank pet. Here is how.

Bring up your pet (one that has extra AA buffs for that pet only) and your diety minion pet.
Cast your pet buffs and pets AA buffs. Now, when you click on any of your 3 main summon pet icons your main pet will be removed. But if you look at your diety minion he still holds onto ALL the buffs. Now summon a different pet and target him. You will notice that all the buffs automatically transferred onto him, including buffs that you can't outright cast on that type of pet.

I assume these steps will work with any combination of pets as long as you have your little diety minion. It appears to only work with the EoF diety pet, if I summon my pet Hoo'lah it doesn't hold any buffs.

Nice, can anyone confirm this?

Bug no longer works as of last update.

It doesnt work on deity pets anymore, but still works on Anas Mechanica Case (that pet duck, 10 minutes to do quest).

Nice one merald. Finaly some of use of that annoying duck. It works.

Can i get some yays then

This also works for necros with their undead charm. Get pet up for specific buff, charm undead mob, kill main pet (charmed pet still holds the buff) get out the pet you want to have the buff, then can kill off charmed pet and the buff stays. Granted this is only helpful when there are undead mobs around to use.

As of GU36 they changed those buffs to be passive spells meaning they are no longer cast. You cant cast them on different pets any longer. nice while it lasted though. Quacker Yig had a purpose, now that purpose is gone...
