The tamed Animals issue
The pet system's mechanics are so silly in this game. Why pets can recive fall damage and randomly jump off the cliff and die? After months of this game being released. Why they are being sent to the conquest battles, its an immediate death for them. Even if you dont attack they get drawn in the battle and try to kill everyone which leads you to be focus by multiple enemies. When I try to save the bear using the long range weapons and skills it still gets killed because all the enemies focus the bear. Its seems like all their purpose is to kill him. All the issues could be fixed easlily:
By disabling the pet presence at conqyest battles
Disabling the possibility of taming elite animals
Creating a system of pet commands (at least a command to stop fighting or to focus a target or simply follow the player)
Disabling the auto fighting mode and
Making the animals less vunerable
I have no idea how something so incredibly obvious but very frustrating can still be in the game.

And why would you want to disable the taming of a elite/legendary animal???

They are fantastic in conquest battle: Tame a legendary creature, bear especially, and add the 100% Health + 50% damage for Pets perk to a bow. They'll slaughter everyone nearby.

I do agree with your other ideas though. Disabling auto fight especially (via a command). Even a "stay" or "attack" command would be useful. I'd really like it if I could have the pet disappear after a while, and call them back when needed, just like the horse. Pets consistently block doors and get in way of sight....ugh. They've screwed up assassinations and bow shots more than once for me. It's frustrating enough for me to untame it and kill the stupid thing, lol.

Because at the time I didnt know that elite animals respawn. Losing such a rare thing was even more harder to dealt with. Again it was only just one of various possible solutions.

I rather wanted a possiblilty not to bring the pet on the battle. At the time the bear kept dying (Obv I didnt have the bow) and I the only option to keep it alive was to change the difficulty.

Since the time ive decided not to use the pets anymore and just simply reset the perks. The game surely became a lot easier for me. Btw I just finished it yesterday
