Title: Pets
Post by: shorty13 on October 26, 2005, 08:24:56 am

I hope the pets implementation is, well, fully implemented very soon.  It is an awesome idea.  We could have pet battles potentially, or just have a partner to follow you around.

Anyway, a good idea for pets would be:

Have random creatures (some better then others)  roam around yliakum.  If a player stumbles across one, they can take it for themselves as a pet.  Then, depending on how rare that pet is, another one will respawn there in 5min to a day, to maybe even a couple days for super rare and good pets.  Pets of course would be able to level up and get stronger.

Ideas for pets:
Lizards, tiger type creatures, lygers (rare), wraiths (rare), eagle, hawk, phoenix (rare), etc.

Also, there should be a rabbit of some sort, even if they can\'t attack, it would be fun haveing a cute little rabbit follow you around :D

This should go in the wish list forum. Oh and your creatures are way to common for PS, change the names to The Fire Bird of Randomness and you may have a winner.

Hey guys, try to find the differences between Harry Potter\'s Hippogriff and the Groffel (that pet) ;)

Hippogriffs aren\'t Harry Potter\'s either.

I do like the idea of us needing to catch our own pets, hopefully we\'ll even have to tame them before they obey us fully as well. But please don\'t make pet spawns like creature spawns .. always in the same place. *gets nightmares of players setting up tents around the rare pet spawn* Make them very random for the love of Talad!

That said .. all shall bow before the werebunny! *unleashes werebunnies in Oja Hills just because he is in a silly mood*

wasn\'t sure whether to put this in the wishlist since they said they have implemented it.
Pets should not become what spells became (being in the \"testing phase\" for eternaty and never being released to the players).

you have spells available, stop moaning

pets will come when Talad dercides you can have them, til then, be grateful for what you already have

Moved to Wishlist, where all suggestions and ideas belong ;) Otherwise, there is already a Pets thread in General Discussion.

Hippogriffs are big and deadly.
Groffels look like a merge between Griffons and hawks. And don\'t look deadly at all... They look like food, you know. Chicken and such.

But that may also be an advantage. If as suggested this pets would be \"Found\" they can be trained to be pets, but if your health gets low, then at least you can kill and roast them. This way they can also serve as food.
Well that is an extra option for the wishlist pets.

So like horses?
But usually when you use one as a mean of travel, you don\'t eat it...
1 because you need it to travel
2 it is big
3 horse used to travel or not as good as the \"eatable\" one

Another thing pets could be good for, not to screw up the convo already going on, would be gambling.

Kind of like cock fights, just more humane since it\'s a game, heh.

Ok, see... This is the kind of pets we need... Not some fluff-ridden groffels...

Fluffy pets are cliche ;)
