WotLK unholy pet and combat, whats blizzlike?

[caleman]

is the dk supposed to enter combat state when the ghoul deals damage to the enemy or as soon as we send it to attack? (before it reaches the enemy) i remember some discussion about this

You get put in combat when a mob is pulled by walking by it or attacking a neutral. That's how the game has always worked.

That's not what he asked about.

I'd also like to know an answer for this, because currently player gains combat as soon as his pet is sent to attack and it feels kinda unnatural and op. But maybe I'm wrong and it should work like this?

This server, doesnt matter if it is Blackrock or Icecrown or Lordaeron, all the servers work the same way. The combat may not be visible on portrait, but when a dk or hunter sends his pet to attack on arena, rogue automatically can't sap them. It says that target is in combat.

It isn't blizzlike. Dk's DoTs also broken, keeps him in combat for the longest time from all classes from any range, also not blizzlike.

thats interesting, the red text doesnt say entering combat?
