Question to my fellow White Lions

[darthvidu]

Thanks to everyone for the replies, I'm playing right now and the way I see it, it's like this:

If you change your stance, the stats change but the abilities DO NOT.
If you kill your pet and resummon it, none of the abilities work at your command, but the pet will use the second stance's abilities whenever it likes to. You then get a "free" change of stance, by that I mean that if you change your stance it will work, with interface and everything.

Also, @Twyxx "I would have a rotation with my pet which would be Trained to Threaten to apply the armor debuff and taunt, then switch to Trained to Kill for the strength bonus for burst damage."

^ wonderful, wonderful indeed! Though I will need some practice to do it smoothly. Thanks

Im torn.

Pack Synergy, on paper, sounds like a must-have tactic. But the damn pet keeps dying all the time (you need to have an active pet to benefit from the tactic according to tooltip). Lately i have been using Brute Force + Lion Heart and i have been doing fine.

Lionheart is better than it looks, for sure. It's not physical so it ignores armor, has a pretty short CD and very cheap AP cost (unlike most of our abilities). I used it up to level 20 and it's not bad at all.

That combination is good too. That's the problem: You have 3 good tactics, but can only slot 2.

I guess it all depends on who you are facing. Against a premade, they usually kill my pet whenever they can, making Pack Synergy useless. Against pugs, i almost never have to resummon it so Pack Synergy becomes incredibly useful.

Lionheart is really useful when u have whispering winds. You can spam it in t4 and blow a bo up 2k at a time
