Pet Attack

Pet attack is a skill type. All Pet attacks are Ranger Skills linked to Beast Mastery.

Pet attacks are useless without Charm Animal because they require a pet.

The unusual thing about Pet Attacks is that the ranger uses the skill and the pet does the melee attack. The damage type depends on the pet type.

So skills that involve the target attacking should be used on the Pet and skills that invole the target using skills should be used on the ranger. (note Spiteful Spirit in this context)

They are used in a similar manner to shouts; they have no casting time and can be used even while you are in the middle of using another skill. They are considered "attack skills" for things like Tiger's Fury, which disables non-attack skills.
