A better idea to the Jump First, EotB Second "strategy" would be to use Eyes of the Beast before you jump, so you won't ever get into LOS or out of range issues. I've also heard that flying pets WILL follow you down jumps, but this has not been tested. Besides, I don't like flying pets, and I've heard they take up so much room it's not even funny at higher levels.
