So, how did they accomplish overriding legendary pets with companion/boss/skill pets? We have been told for years that required animations are missing.

Nice update, more summoning pets in the interface as well which is very welcome.

Not sure what specifically was said in the past, but follower pets are the issue for missing animations, that's why they can't currently be used as overrides.

Companion, boss, and skilling pets have the various (combat) animations required to be overrides. Worth mentioning also that even then we still had a lot of issues with mismatching animations we had to resolve in development.
