I been doin these pettle battles for some time now and come to the conclusion that DODGE and MISS need to be removed. After countless battles that should only take a matter of minutes, because i have the stronger team, tend to take more time than necessary. Initially, yeah chance to dodge/miss etc makes a fight interesting to some extent but when you miss with a cooldown hit that says nothing in its tooltip of having a chance to miss is just stupid. Again i have just had a 4 round cooldown missing 5 TIMES on the bounce and it isnt fun, its stupid. If like with toons theres a chance to miss then at least implement pet talent trees so we can mitigate this crap. If an enemy pet casts a spell which reduces my chance to hit - so be it, but when that enemy pet has left itself open to an attack, i should be able to exploit that. I understand that this must work both ways, meaning, that i would no longer have the chance to miss/dodge but i dont go into a battle and soley rely on this farce to win.

Dont get me wrong pet battles are nice, new and unique aside from the daily grind which has always been WoW. Please dont make this any more tedious than it is.

To add i made this post out of pure frustration (im sure there are others like me) - Devs....sort it out!!!

I started Battle pets as son as it came live, after trying it on the test realms ! not only is it great fun it is nice to do something other than questing for a while. I just hate it when you go for that rare and forget to stop short or hit wrong key and end up with dead rare. ;( .. Still good fun though.

Should really implement Ranked Pet Battles and remove some of the excessive Luck Elements. Would make it a lot more fun to play.

its completely unfair that you have pets required for cheevs that people newly joined can NEVER get cuz their is no wat to trade nor win pets like from the Blizz-cons of years gone by. if you were to change that, so that ALL pets can be traded, captured or won or at the very least make all the older pets that arent currently available, available again for say 6 months so we ALL have a chance to access them.

@Celestiakiri: you could always pull a Dorothy and click your heels together screaming there's no place like wow 7 yrs ago :D

its not gonna work but neither is having a whinge and u can trade some of those pets just not the good ones you shouldn't get the anniversary pets if you didn't play during the anniversary its not fair to the ppl who played thru the crap changes and for 2 WE PLAYED THRU THE ANNIVERSARY its not fair for u to get them unless you played them since your whingin im guessing you didnt :) next time buy or beg for the game eailer because what your asking isnt fair to long time players like myself who had to deal with expensive mount costs rep grinding to be able to mount in booty bay stupid key bag mess ups and the rest of the very old not to mention having to pick the pets u decided to take out the day u played because they took more space then most things if yur a pet addict like myself problems that u obviously didnt have to deal with and i bet that to alot of older players like my self that would be the straw that broke the camels back as it were either buy the game sooner or be thankful u no longer have to carry the damn pets in your bag :D life is more fun when you enjoy what you have ..want only brings misery ..and apparently pandas for the little kids

@Kitsinopa: Not often i make post in wow forums but in your case i will make an exception.

I been playing since pretty much day 1 of WoW and like you have been keen to get things throughout my time. Your saying that new players shouldnt have the opportunity to collect some of the older more unique things becasue they didnt log in on a particular day or didnt buy a more expensive expansion ? What a load of crap....Im not new and my work means that i have to go away for long periods or even have to go to work at a moments notice, the odd seasonal/log in day i look forward to, half the time i miss. The thing is though ive kept my subscription up for months (prior to the contract mount crap) does this mean i shouldnt whinge about not getting things....i payed to play that day, just couldnt get on. So am i not 'entitled' to these extra pixels u hold so dear? at the end of the day we push buttons and its just a game. Why begrudge anyone anything within the game, even some form of replica that shows the dude 'didnt log in' but is happy with the same looking item. Ive spent a lot of cash on WoW over the years like most long term players and all we get back is erm well nothing. If someone who has acquired something within the game using their time, effort and resources - they should be able to do with it as they see fit.

I Just wish the helm u get from achieve that gives a 10% boost in experience could be given in a different way than a helm cause i forget to take it off in raids and parties i join, cause i forgot to un-equip it, maybe make it a buff item instead while your online or maybe an hour buff,

also the pet traps u get from the achieves, i think their in the wrong order and u should mainly get them when u catching and not from lvling them, i could all the world pets except 1 for zookeeper without the traps but could have used sooner :D

Not going to lie. I avoided this like the plague, Then a couple of nights ago, i was bored while waiting on a dungeon queue pop so I decided to try it out.

Now I am hooked. I canceled the queue and done pet battles. Now I am hooked on finding them and leveling my own lol.
@Melonbréw: Apparently that happens to many people; it’s easy to dismiss pet battles as light entertainment and simply not as a serious feature at all, particularly if you’re a raider or if you’re into seriously hard high-end PvP or PvE content.
But Pet Battles manage to catch those who dare to try them quite unprepared; Pet Battles are surprisingly deep, well balanced and a whole lot of fun.
