Fetishes do not block Gargs from attacking, that was fixed years ago Gargs have a massive reach and can attack mobs they dont even appear to be engaged with.

The problems youre seeing with Gargs not attacking are twofold...

Firstly they all follow a rule of engagement that they don not attack until the hostile mobs have, so if you drop a piranha on a pack before theyve moved gargs WILL ignore them until the piranha effect has finished and the enemy mobs can move.

Secondly a few patches back Blizz made a change to Gargs that means they will happily continue to attack mobs off-screen, this change was made to force the player to resummon the Gargs as Blizz didnt want Gargs to be a passive summon once and forget them. although one Garg does stick by your side and continue to be a bodyguard of sorts.

Now knowing that the above is the intended behaviour for gargs it is possible to game this system and get Gargs on the right pack by moving beyond the pack you wish you to attack, its not always 100% succesful but it does help.

Personally i think this change was made to Gargs by Blizz because it will make the Necro appear to have better programmed pets making more people want to pay for the new pack, its also my opinion allbeit tin foil that they may be dumbed further yet

Thx for the nfo. I did not know this stuff.
