About that new Pet elevator code

There is new code in I5 to allow pets to follow their summoner through elevators. A nice change considering the single summon Pet change. Well that code works both ways and therein lies my tale

I was running a gangwar mission with my Bowfender. I can into a room and fought the 3 Skulls I found near an Artifact object. I was waiing for End to recover. When I found 2, no 3, more Skulls behind me. OK I thought I has missed them when I entered the room. OK I fought them and I was totally exhausted. So I run back to the back the cooridor to recover and not attrack any aggro. I saw another group of Skulls run into the room, but exit the room and start running towards me.

OK I come to realise that this is one of the new Enemy Wave missions. I'm at no END so I head back to the elevators so I can recover. After I'm back on the previous floor, I hear an elevator ding behind me. So I turned around. The elevator doors open to reveal the 3 Skulls I just ran from. Shocked Jumping Jimminy!! I proceed to have a running battle, kiting this way and that, waiting on End so I can get a shot off.

As a Zloth remarked when I told him in game, "We need be careful what we ask for the next time."

I have to agree, that does

I have to agree, that does sound fun. Using the elevators to escape bad guys has always been kind of a cheap tactic.

that sounds kinda kewl! And adds a need for new tactics.
