Pet Stance "passivemode" broken

[Stark]

Can also confirm hunter pet passive mode is not working right. Sometimes the pet does use growl, claw but other times it won't in passive.

Needs to be set to defensive to always use abilities if they are on auto. Also pet regen out of combat is the same as NPCs.

Same problem, most of the players use passive stance for more control. Hope this will be fixed soon. For now the best way is to bind pet taunt.

Yes regen is broken and it gives us a slight advantage. Pet stances are a bit broken as well.
But!
There are more things to fix in first place , this bugs are not crucial. If you put pet on passive and keep spamming attack button, then he will use all his abilities by cd. Or just make a macro when u send pet to attack to put him on defensive stance and other macro to follow and passive stance(just like you have binded the attack and follow buttons).
The really broken part of the stance i find crucial is that on defensive stance pet attacks like on aggro stance.

Looking for a fix to this one soon Nost pet passive mode, as people described, is very broken- pet will not autocast focus using abilities. Renders the stance useless and most pro hunters prefer to leave pet on passive

Same thing, passive bugs mean using it on passive is very clunky and manual and it slows things down.

Can't set to defensive because it acts like it's aggressive sometimes and just goes for mobs for no apparent reason, without me aggroing them or anything.

Yup pets stances are broken for me too. Defensive works like aggressive, it attacks nearby mobs on itself. And on passive it doesn't use abilities itself. I can spam Attack while in passive or bind/click those abilities but otherwise it won't use them.

When in defensive mode, the pet immediately attacks any unit that aggros. I believe this is wrong. When in defensive stance the pet should only attack when you or it is actually hit.

check this video about pet regeneration https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Vu9cYszCG4, it should be 10% when pet is out of combat

Pets are super bugged. As a lvl 38 hunter this is what I've encountered so far:

Defensive stance bug - Pet pretty much charges anything that's about to aggro it. I thought defensive stance meant that your pet will only start attacking after you take damage. Also, sometimes after killing a mob it runs away to a random direction and aggros another creature that is pretty much 100+ yards away (sometimes not even visible). I pretty much have to spam the follow button all the time.. Really really annoying.

Possible bug with pet resistances - I have yet to see my pet resist crowd control from another player although I've leveled all resistances to maximum. Not even a single time.

The health regen thingy - It only takes like 10 seconds out of combat for your pet to regen from 1% to 100%. I haven't used mend pet once.

Please fix these asap. The class is pretty unplayable right now.
