Ok so it didn't actually run away - but:
When I activated it to see it in F10 view (cool steed) I had to hurry back to another zone. So I did. When I zoned into the new zone my Holy Steed was nowhere to be found. I called and pleaded and even waved a few carrots and sugar cubes in the air - no deal.
So I figured hell - I would just get another. So I tried to cast the spell again and NOPE! Apparantly I cannot cast another Holy Steed. Wonder if my old one is running free and wild somewhere in Elldar Grove?
Ok - Spell stats are:
Cast time: 5.0 seconds
Recast time: 0.0 seconds
Delay or something is 0.5 seconds.
So - why does my Combat Spell icon still show as QUEUED? And I thought pets etc would zone with you?
