Got bad news for you...
I've spent 1.5h trying to alter the encoded Pet Data in the database, but with no luck. This is something we couldn't figure out how to do back on the old servers either, so it comes as no surprise.
The end result of this is that I'm exhausted, and completely out of ideas. So another Pet Wipe is inevitable since I doubt you want to keep getting one shot by pets in PVP.
However, I'll add a
x3 ZEN Rate multiplier this weekend so that you can easily get pets started again. I've also changed the Pet Meld time down to 10 minutes for this very reason. The multiplier will be active at 00:00.
I realize most people will probably quit at this point. I'm sorry I had to do the wipe of pets again, I really am. But there's no way around it to solve the problem.
I've tested numerous pets across all the realms and it seems to be OK now. The pets are a lot weaker than before (because they were overpowered before, duh), and they are now useable properly in PVP, and they deal enough damage for my LV115 instances. You won't find yourself one shot by a pet from here on out.
Should the pets end up being too weak this time around, we can easily adjust it next time by increasing their
base damage rather than their
statpoints since that's what caused the issue to begin with.
The server will be coming up in the next 15 minutes. Make sure to read the news in the Launcher, several more changes are listed there.
