    The Petite Sawfly? Either find one close enough to the ground that you can attack it or get one from another player. I think there are a few close enough to the ground they can be attacked by someone one the ground, but I don't know for sure.

    I got one that was close to the ground. I spent maybe 10 minutes looking for one that I could reach though, before one randomly cooperated with me.

    Anyone notice there Petite Sawfly getting stuck on uneven ground when attacking ?
    It doesn't have a problem following me but it seems to fly low when attacking ( sticking it's stinger out ).

    First while in City of the plume (you need to go here to get your bee) stop by the blacksmith,
    pick up a lvl 1 BOW and a few lvl 1 arrows
    Once there you should see a watchtower like structure, practice jumping and landing on the fence of the structure. Try climbing as high as you can on that thing, this will help you get in range of your target, if you are lucky the little guy will be kind of low and within bow range, if he is teh rest is done

    This is a problem that affects all flying pets attacking ground targets. It only happens on bumpy terrain. Try to position yourself so you're uphill from the target and the slope is smooth in between (no bumps sticking up). Then send your pet in to attack.

    When you reach level 30 and get your manta, you can attack from the air. That eliminates the problem, but reduces your damage.
