Pet roles in PvP?
So, my question is this, let's assume I tamed a dragon and I want to use it as an element of surprise when I'm outnumbered or trapped. Since we can't shrink animals, how can I use pets in PvP? And would it be wise to transfer an agressive pet like dragon from my tamer to my main character or I should make a Pvper Tamer and use them with him?

Re: Pet roles in PvP?
That was what I was getting at with the Nightmare rider template discussion. You need a certain degree of animal lore and taming to control higher end pets.
With 80 Lore and Taming it is possible to assume command of dragons, Wyrms, and Nightmares though you have to feed them alot. I chose a Nightmare for this so you just have to jump off say all guard me or all kill ,feed it, then jump back on.
Other then that you'd have to bait them out by beforehand commanding the beast(s) to stay then casting invisible on them leading the combatant into a place where he would be cornered by it then give the command to kill. That's only one tactic, give it some thought and you could think of others.

Your pet will only listen to commands if it's controller has a high taming and animal lore skill. So you can't just transfer stuff.
Your best bet is to make:
Magery
Resist
Meditation
Eval Int
Wrestling
Animal Taming
Animal Lore
Even then... pets are slow, players on mounts are fast, it's actually difficult for pets to make a kill. And you're a sitting duck against more than 1 person.
