Aurelius: The cloth I am using for Bandages amounts to a maximum of 5 gold a day. The talents I chose over Spirit Bond when playing as a BM earned me a much faster killspeed, and thus I gained far more than 5 gold a day while grinding. And no, it doesn't require me to wait until I am so and so damaged to get full use of it. Have you checked the best bandage? I can use it at 70ish percent and still get full use of it.
The point is, you can't say it's
useless because it's not. Scatter Shot while grinding as a BM Hunter? That could be classed as useless as well, since you've got pretty much the same thing on your pet in the form of Intimidate. I like Spirit Bond, you like bandages. Your cost in bandages (or lost income from selling them) is my repair bill and ammunition cost covered for a prolonged grind.
You can say it's not to your liking, or that you prefer to put your talents into something else, but when you say it's "useless", you make yourself seem narrow minded and really not on the ball. Wording is key, and there are a great many people not unlike myself who
would find benefit in it but would be turned off from trying it by such a vehement stance to the negative.

Bandages are cheaper than I was when celebrating the end of high school. Spirit Bond costs a massive 2 talent points that could be spent somewhere they actually did something for you.
2. Out of 61 on a level 70 Hunter. I'd hardly call that massive.

And I stay "topped up" anyway. It's nigh impossible to grind something and actually take much in the way of damage anyway, if you just plan your grindroute. When farming leather I got myself a massive killspeed, and didn't have downtime until I had filled my bags. And that's without Spirit Bond. I didn't once through those hours feel even the slightest need for it.
AoE. Adds. That momentary bit of aggro you pull on a caster who melts your face a bit before your pet gets things back under control. Never anything major, but adding up over time having it taken care of automatically is nice for some people.
Lastly, you're getting out of hand with the accusations of laziness. There's no ******* way
I would ever read through 4 pages of thread titles to see if something was discussed here 2-4 weeks ago. Behave yourself. You've enjoyed a certain amount of leeway with the, "Ya, that's North for ya," but now it's time to get real and get back in touch with reality. Don't like the topic? Don't click on the thread. If you
do click on it when it's clearly labeled as a topic you don't want to see because it was covered 4 pages ago, try to be an adult about it and recognize that if it's not on the first page (maybe second), it didn't happen. (Excluding, "Wut is teh best pet!?!?!" threads, of course.)
