| − | =Using the Pets Window with Masterminds=
| + | |
| − | This window is of particular importance to the [[mastermind]] archetype as it is the primary command interface between a mastermind and his or her [[henchmen]].
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | When a henchman is summoned, there will be a set of icons representing the current commanded state of each henchman. Commands can be issued to individual henchmen by clicking on the icons directly to the right of their name. Commands may be issued to all henchmen summoned by the same power by clicking on the icons to the right of each power name. Finally, commands may be issued to all henchmen by clicking on the icons to the right of "All Pets" at the top of the window.

| − | There are two modes of commanding henchmen:
| + | |
| − | {{clr}}
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==Simple Mode==
| + | |
| − | To activate '''simple mode''': While in advanced mode, click "Options" on the outer border of the Pets Window. Select "Switch to Simple Mode."

| + | |
| − | |-
| + | |
| − | |[[Image:PetCommand_Action_Attack.png|20px]]||'''Attack'''||This will send your henchman to attack the enemy you currently have targeted. Even if you switch targets, your henchman will still continue to attack the same target until either the target is defeated or another command is issued. After defeating a target, the henchman will continue to attack any targets that are nearby. If you issue this command without a hostile target selected, your henchman will simply default to '''follow''' mode.
| + | |
| − | |-
| + | |
| − | |[[Image:PetCommand_Action_Follow.png|20px]]||'''Follow'''||Your henchman will follow you wherever you go. If any hostile targets come into range, your henchman will attack them on sight.
