Problem With Pets

Post by Keeker »

Got a problem with my pets...I brought a mature Ice Elemental up from the Mercenary Level and i loved it so much cause of the mana regeneration, i decided to add more elementals into my party, so now i have 2 ice and 2 fire elementals. I thought this would be a fun combo, but the three elementals i added in the second difficulty level aren't acting the way i think they should. the 1 ice elemental and the 2 fire elementals are not shooting any balls of ice or fire, its like they are attacking the mobs with mele instead of magic, and they are only doing 4-9 damage. their powers are working great, i love the fire elementals fire cone thing, but their regular attacks don't seem to phase any mob. is this a bug, or is it designed like this?

thanks for any help,

Are the new elementals still babies, or have you built them up?

I guess this is rare bug. I hve seen this...

...if your magic pets have completely lost their attack spells. :(
There is no (good) solution, try to resart the game (maybe that will help) or just get a new baby pet and feed it.
Actually in v2.0 my ice elemental has lost its spell once too - however in v2.2 i have never seen a pet loose a spell again (it's possibly less probable there).

...if you are used to switched the attacks of your party by keyboard, in that case redefine/resave your key configuration at every game session. A little better explained it is maybe here:
Another Pet Icon/Attack Bug!? (by key configuration) | Gas Powered Garage
Nethertheless you must watch the pet's attack spell yourself form time to time and reselect it manually by mouse.
Totally modded.

All four elementals are mature. I spent 4 hours feeding them rings of knowledge with the +opnauticus cheat because i didn't know you could feed em spells to grow :D

I just started a brand new game the on merc level with just 3 ice elementals and me and so far so good...i haven't gotten to amanlu yet so i don't know if it will work with the fire elemental but I'll cross that bridge when i come to it.
