What a silly thing to do. To change the text and then provide a link to the actual text which is:
Golden Nyanco Signal Pet
This loyal pet keeps you safe thanks to its incredibly sensitive hearing and an ability to sniff out unstealthed enemies! With one of these faithful (and cute!) pets by your side, you'll never have to worry about others getting the jump on you.
I.e. It won't detect asssssasins or other stealthed players. Big whoop.
If you want to QQ then don't make stuff up at least.
Sorry didn't read the rest of the text after that first blatant lie you made so can't comment on the rest of the QQing.
I got a cleric to the 50 cap in full fenris before I quit the game. As a PvPvE game (which it is advertised as) it is inherently flawed in its mechanics across all classes and these problems will NEVER be fixed. They appear to be considered a part of the game. So the two issues:
1) Whenever you use a skill you lose control of your character and it becomes locked in place while it performs a skill animation. This ruins aerial pvp altogether for a melee class, you can see it referenced in the OP where he states "Not in range" or w/e. At the same time it's not a good idea for a player to lose control of their character while in the midst of battle. This is further epitomized by the Ranger class having to use "jump shotting." This basically means as a ranger you run around jumping as you activate your skills in order to cancel out the animation. The devs stated during my play time that this is working as intended. If you are clueless about this you can see a ranger doing it for a full fight at around 2:20 in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXttiRDWLN0
2) Aerial melee pvp is busted. There's simply no way to compete with a ranged class and there never will be largely due to the effects of problem 1.
In addition to these issues there are other reasons I will never come back to Aion. First and foremost, is the rifting nerf. All the pve'ers cried so hard about rifting that it's pretty much been removed from the game. This was completely unnecessary as you could level from 1-50 without spending much time at all in any of the rift zones. There were entire guides developed by players to explain this, but alas the crying continued so one of the game's features was removed. Not to mention that the game is advertised as a PvPvE game. In that phrase (PvPvE) I see that 1) PvP comes first and two that my PvP and my PvE will be all mixed up together. Well now only half as much as before and in the same fashion as every other game out there. I can do tear more stuff up on a WoW PvP server than I can in Aion rifting. Secondly, the fact that all the top end PvP gear can be obtained by PvE without ever killing a single other player. This is almost as bad as AoC.....need I say more?
TL;DR - Potentially a great game whose inherent flaws prevent me from ever playing again.

Funny, to me PvPvE means 3rd faction is NPC.
