List of options below, separated by commas, enclosed in [ ]

Options

These options are the same format as used in the cast command, however only the following have been tested:

target=unitid

@unitid

Casts on a specific target without changing your current target.

Examples:

/petattack [target=target]

This will tell your pet to target your target's target (e.g. If you have a friendly target that is attacking a hostile target.)

/petattack [target=focustarget]

This will tell your pet to target your focus' target (e.g. If you have a friendly target on /focus, and it will attack their target.)

Notes

If no target is given, the pet will attack the player's target.

This will cause you to become PvP flagged if you attack a PvP flagged unit.

In Player vs Player, players use this as a method to get in Combat to prevent themselves from being Crowd Controlled by a Rogue's Sap.
