My very first huntard question

[silverthorne]

Which is:

I understand that to learn certain pet skills, you have to tame a pet with that skill.

What I'd like clarification on:

Does taming the pet automatically teach you any unique skills it has?
Or does it make that skill available to buy at a pet trainer?
Or is there something you have to do with the pet itself to acquire the skill?

Pretty much, the instructions I'm finding say 'tame new pet; learn new skill; teach new skill to older pet (if applicable)'. But the 'how' part of the hunter learning the new skill seems to be missing...

When you tame the new pet, you have to fight with it a few times - I had two or three fights before it told me I learned the new skill.

On the other hand, I suggest waiting a week, because the entire pet skill system is going to be redone with the 3.02 patch which is expected next Tuesday. So don't worry about it.

I think you had to level it up. I don't know for sure though. I never really was that good with the whole pet thing. I just got a boar cause it eats anything and has that nifty charge move.

Also, how's your macro/mod working?
