It attacks like a normal pet, what am I doing wrong?
88 FIRE! An "anti-tank" projectile, accompanied by an AC-130 are on their way to ensure insanity.

    Switch off auto pet skill (right click on the hight lighted pet skill).

    I was only able to get marksman to range attack by clicking off autoskills, and set petmode to Auto(when i cast, it attacks).


    I was disappointed with the range, it's about half of my casting range.

    When I click on Pet Attack, or any pet skill, it just walks up and Melees.

    Am I doing something wrong? I want it to be able to range attack on its own when I tell it to attack, is that possible?

    Your pet is your tank, the focus of attention for mobs. Melee mobs will close in on it and your pet trying to kite away from them - and possibly loosing aggro - is the last thing you want.

    I plan on using ranged attack to do the "veno pull" in a FB, or in PvP.

    agro is a non issue.
