Quest Followers (Pets)

[vlad198401]

Of lately, I noticed that low level quest pets (namely, amazone and stan; 3 kings were not checked) became very weak and cannot even kill a wolf on start map. I dismissed them and join them once more, but the situation did not improve.
I remember for sure that amazon could solo-kill bow- and sword-stan, wolf, spider, etc. For killing these low level mobs she was more than enough.
So that's the question: were Quest Followers (Pets) weaken deliberately or is it some kind of bug?

low lvl = low lvl pets. I don think that you need pets for make xp on that levels

Dave, you are like good politition: you read the question, then you answer some other question.

My point is that now these quest pets cannot kill even wolf. But some time ago they could, and you could leave them unattended at least on start map. Now it is not possible, you have to watch them, or they are killed by wolf, stan, or spider.

UPD: the 3 kings also cannot kill anyone now.

no blad I dont think . Always that I played they coud kill how max a wolf, ni spiders or stans. how you want 1 stan kill another stan?

Damn. Dave, you are so stubborn, really.

I tell, at least 2 weeks ago quest pet amazon could kill a wolf on start map. Now she cannot even hit/injure it. I checked 3 kings now. They also cannot hit/injure even little red spider. Even injure.

I am trying to help don't be ungrateful.

Ok I tested it , yes Amazon is doing 0 damage so must be bug how you were telling. But you coukd read too , Stans never killed others stans.

Thank you for checking and your efforts, Dave.
Hopefully this bug would be corrected.

Upd.
Today on start map saw the situation: yellow archer (from the piramide, hireable for 150k) was doing zero (0) damage to stan.

What could be causing this?

The answer is no. None of the monsters were changed. The monster as a pet (all pets regardless of whether it is a "quest pet" or not) has the same stats/abilities as the monster you are fighting. Well, mostly. Pets don't have the same range as monsters. All pets have the same range, whereas monsters have various ranges, and range is the only difference between a monster and a pet.
