The group that runs up against them can't kill them fast enough because smite clerics have sooooooo many tools at their disposal combined with decent ranged damage with 8 of them dudes doing it!

What?? You must be joking. Playing with a huge obvious bug the whole time and demanding a respec after fix? :roll:

Try to play a hunter with his pet and you will see what weak means.

@Hulkgris: He talks about intercept fix which reduced incoming damage by 70%.
It's done when it's done. Thanks for your patience.

Hi Laza,

I totally agree with you regarding the playability of the summon spec SM, in it's current state it's unable to fight it's way out of a wet paper bag in PvE and worthless in PvP. I ended up having to respec mine to dark.

My advice to anyone currently using the summon spec would be: respec to anything else until pet buffs work correctly.

This post should be read by all new players (page 4 for updated info)

The author of this thread is no more here, so the post still have the "Outdated" tag in title. Need a split from page 4. I could update it then.

Well, in all fairness - bug or no bug - on live server respecs were given out if a major change was implemented that significantly affected the playability of certain classes/specs. The fact that intercept was bugged was not the players fault, but the staffs, and was - in the context of the server - not a bug fix but a patch (since the high intercept rate has always been this high here and didn't accidently change as far as I know).

So yeah, spirit masters should get a free respec imho.

In all fairness, buff on pet should be fixed now. I don't understand why it works with mob damage fix.

There will never be free respecs for bugfixes.

The only pet buff that seems to work correctly is the haste buff, I've not noticed any improvement from the others.

Fair enough, but the question remains whether this was a bug fix or not.

If you compare it to live servers 1.81 or even 1.69 - then yes, it was a bug that got fixed.
If you compare it to the server as is, then it was an adjustment that was made to change the effect of an ability. On live servers, this warranted a free respec for the affected classes.

My point was that, when in doubt, you should make a decision for the players, not against them (i.e. give them a free respec). There is a fair number of people on Uthgard that have no live-server experience; for them the pet bahavior was 'normal'.
