Talk:Otyugh's Cry

Just affects pets?
The skill description makes it sound as if this skill aslo applies to random animals wandering the environment, moa birds, wolves, whatever. Is this true or does it just apply to pets? My ranger isn't far enough along to know. Not that affecting lvl 5 environmental animals is going to be all that useful, but it would be interesting flavor. --Squeg 02:42, 15 Oct 2005 (EST)


 * All animals in the area that aren't pets, yeh Moas Lynxes etc Skuld &Dagger; 03:29, 15 Oct 2005 (EST)

name
Anyone know why it's called "Otyugh's Cry"? There's a D&D monster of the same name, but the wikipedia article doesn't even have any source for it beyond that. They're just.. plant monsters, nothing about them suggests much in the way of armor or mind control.. --Nunix 18:41, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
 * The Otyughs of Final Fantasy are plants. The D&D versions aren't plants, and have thick hides. They're also aggresive and highly territorial, which I guess explains the (currently bugged) part about making all animals attack your target. -- Gordon Ecker 05:28, 9 October 2006 (CDT)

---a bug??---
I was trying to use this skill today since I was going to an area with a lot of potential pets (lynx mostly) and when I tried to use it (beast mastery 8) the lynx became hostile TO ME not the things I was attacking, I tried this several times and yes, they were not attacking the enemy, but me and my party......is this a bug???-cosyfiep

Oh, no.
ANet forgot to update the description to say within earshot! --68.142.14.33 03:01, 14 July 2006 (CDT)

about the bug
It was probably due to you targetting yourself, is my guess. you should have selected the foe you want targetted, even considering hte fact that its' a shout (which don't normally have targets). If you're one of those people who press "F" (default for target self), it may be why. --204.112.128.189 01:09, 25 July 2006 (CDT)

Is that pwnage or what? The worst skill ever, bugged. --69.107.125.202 19:25, 8 August 2006 (CDT)
