Companions?

How about a companion on your adventure? Such as a wolf companion that deals damage to mobs with melee attacks, maybe a chicken that throws eggs at enemy mobs, etc.
They would all have their own unique way of helping you during your adventure in the glorious world of Wynn.
They would all have their own stats and such, just like their masters. They would also cost 1 LE for the 1st tier and you can increase the tier in the same way horses do. They could all have on ability to their arsenal, which you could activate by right clicking the corresponding item in your inventory. An example is that you will get a bone along with the purchase of your wolf to activate it's ability, or a fish to activate the cats ability. There will also be a cool down for the special ability of your companion.

Example:Wolf
Strength:10
Defense:5
Dexterity:5
Agility:10
Special Ability: Extra damage for 10 seconds
Cool down limit: 30 seconds

 

You should get rid of that.

 

These already existed, in the form of pets... people donated to get them, and they were changed/gotten rid of, to fit the EULA.
But I guess paying in game cash could be a better replacement.

 

So by getting our 'companions' do we either buy them from the shop using real money, or naturally tame them? Also it's pretty pointless because we have pets. But if we could tame a monster naturally and it's free! but you need all sorts of requirements like finishing a very long quest or getting their hp to the capturing stage. That would be awesome

 

I do like this idea, but it feels like something is missing... Something about the image of 20 people all in Detlas with pets cluttered into the same area makes my skin crawl...

 

Well, that's kinda how it was in the beginning, back before EULA came in.

Oh. I didn't think it actually happened... neat.
Anyhoo, the idea of taming them in the wild (from yman14, see above) could be something. What if (oh, the lovely what ifs, everyone hates loves them) pets were invisible to other players? Though, that likely throws a wrench in a few things...

 

Well, it was only VIPs, but, yea.

 

Update yo security settings.

 

We would have to do a quest to access the person that sells the pets, just like the ternaves quest
