When does the next rank of Growl become available to you? I noticed quite frequently throughout the leveling process that as I got towards the end of the of a particular Growl rank, the resist rate went way up. In those cases, it's usually only a level or two before you can get the next rank of Growl (might require taming another pet and learning it from that one so you can teach it to your main pet). I went through something very similar on my Warlock when I was one level shy of being able to get the next rank for Torment. Fighting same level mobs was painful, but once I hit the next level and trained the new Torment rank, everything was fine.-I tink I made an angry poo-poo!
My ZAM Journal featuring my 2010 Custom PC Build BlogI'm pretty sure AP affects the amount of threat generated by growl. As for it getting resisted, I'm not going to pretend I know how (if possible) to reduce the chance of that happening.
Disengage I never use as I either FD (CDs not that long so don't feel like you need to save it for when things are starting to get bad) or drop a trap, reset myself, and send the pet back in.-Nowak - Active (Main - Hunter)
Darkmerlin - Active (Alt - Mage)
Stalknkill - Active (Alt - Rogue)Is there a stat or something that I can boost to help the efficacy of Growl? From time to time I am out fighting with my pet when I notice it is having a great deal of trouble keeping hate. When I watch for a while I will see that growl gets resisted. Unusually it's not that often but sometimes it can be several times a fight. It usually ends up with me either tanking or spending much of the fight with my back to the mob drawing the battle out.
Also, is disengage usually enough for dropping your hate a fair amount or is FD necessary? I usually save FD for when things are starting to get bad I am getting to much hate to survive where I would rather just disengage earlier on in the fight. FD just bugs me because of the noise I make so I would rather do that as little as possible.
Just for reference I am a level 41 NE.
