Beastlord warder's are no longer called warder's, now they're pet's. Bug or intentional? I miss my warder.
This happened to me as well, and it happened on beta. So far, I'm the only beastlord in my guild to notice it. I submitted a /bug report and a petition. GM tried to fix it unsuccessfully but said they're escalate it to the Dev Ops team for them to see if they can figure out why it happened and they can't change it. What race are you? FWIW I'm Iksar.
This happens if you suspend the warder. It will return as a pet. If you tell it to leave and summon a new one it will be warder. The same should happen if you suspend it and summon a new one.
This is incorrect. Mine is a pet no matter what. GM Spoom went as far as to rename my warder back to warder, and when I summoned a new one it came back as pet. I have logs for basically all of beta I can go back and look to see when it happened there but I believe it will happen somewhere around when they pushed 64bit there.
