Tactical Information
Lore-masters should use this skill as much as possible to optimize their pet effect uptime. Lore-masters use this ability differently depending on their specialization:
- Keeper of Animals: Blue LM's will usually keep one pet out, so this skill should be used off cooldown, and pets should not be swapped
- Master of Nature's Fury: Red LM's use this skill to gain a Flank to be consumed by Staff-strike. Most LMs will use this skill right before they use that skill.
- The Ancient Master: Yellow LM's can do some different things with their pets, depending on what is most needed by the group. But, they should use this skill off cooldown, so make sure you have the right pet out when you want to use this skill.
