Discussion Trainable Pets - tamers opinions wanted

[Xeno]

There should be possible to make rideable Tigers i think? That pets used to be mounts?

I think there is an ethy tiger so I would think since the graphic is there, you could make the regular ones mountable, right?

I could very easily make all tigers mounts.

When they were first released on Heritage they were added as mounts because that is what we thought they would be.

I simply need to remove that line. I don't see an issue doing this because if some weird imbalancing issue comes up I can simply add it back. No harm done.

Please do this Dan. I'm a huge fan of adding increased functionality to otherwise largely ignored pets.

I dont have any ideas on how to change pets, but i would like to see more of the rare spawn tame-ables.. even if they are just horses, llamas, unicorns & the norm.. with new hues and a new name, maybe a little tougher.. and make some spawn 1 time a month, some 1 time a week, and some 1 time a day. Collecting mounts and pets is a big deal in alot of games. it will breathe life into magincia, and create a demand for stable slot increase tokens

Also, would it be at all possible for the animal lore screen to update in real time like the training one does? So you can see pet skill gains rather than keep loring hoping to see a gain?

+1
Also would be great if can open more than one pet lore at time. For example to easy check the diffrence without make snaps or reopen previous pet

I was thinking of having certain mobiles, like horses, have a rare chance to maybe spawn in a rarer color.

Maybe every now and then the rare white jack rabbit can be found scurrying across the snow touched parts of our world.

Turning other tamable creatures into a "Cu like" color hunt would breathe so much life into taming. I whole-heartedly support this idea and would donate to a GoFundMe if you need to hire a programmer for a weekend.

Adding new hues to underrepresented tames, while dropping some to 2-slot at spawn, would be such a fantastic change.

If not that, I could potentially code a little system message that fires off when a pet gains in skill, like players.

"Your pet named ~PETNAME~ has gained X.X in ~SKILLNAME~."

Months late to the discussion here, but:

Greater Mongbats

Seriously. I had a dream of charging into battle with Mongbattus The Destroyer when I first learned of the new pet system. Then I found they cap at 3 slots and my dreams were crushed.

Lets make these little guys strike terror into the hearts of other monsters. Give them 1 more control slot. Let them cap at 4!

 

[Xeno]

I don't know how many slots they train up but a 5 slot imp would be cool as well.

 

[Wild Elf]

I would like to see added slots to the grizzled mare. they are by far the most basic of pets and even an upgraded grizzled would be less powerful then a nightmare, but I would use one to add to the diversity of the game.

There are quite a few vanity/collectable pets that could probably get a 1 slot boost and still be perfectly within ranges.

 

[Wild Elf]

I would love to see that and even be willing to pay a donation to get it

None needed

I'll take a look this weekend at a few of the vanity pets that are capped and see what can be done to add a slot or two.

Most vanity pets on Heritage are exclusively obtained in-game and not through the store.
