Pets

I understand that we already have wybels, But I feel it would be interesting to tame coyotes and ocelots. they could do damage to other mobs for you, but should have a relatively low attack speed and health. They could be bred like horses, but only once (you keep the parents)

 

Could be a pretty cool idea if we could level up the pets, too! And maybe get better ones the higher the level (or maybe even from quests?).

The pets could possibly scare enemies, give you a few extra hearts and maybe even attack with you! Giving pets a reason to exist would be very cool IMO.

 

A fourth oversuggested addition, cool.

 

Thing is if the pet gives the killing blow you won't get xp or items.

It's barely suggested tho

 

tamable pets have been suggested way too many times

 

Not really

 

I did a bit of looking around, but couldn't find any. Sorry!

 

Maybe they could work like vanilla pets do, If the pets kill them, the xp drops for the person?

 

Maybe but you need to make sure people won't be able to afk farm.

 

Yeah, that is why I think pets should have a rather low health.

 

Wait so like you tame mobs around in the world, or do you buy them from merchants..? The first option sounds cooler imo, but if they die whilst in combat, they shouldn't respawn or else it would be OP

 

Yeah, I was leaning more towards the first option, but they would not respawn. Maybe their could be trainers around the world as well to upgrade your pets, and give them a skill similar to your class?

 

I honestly dont know why this suggestion has so many "Nays" but i'd like to see a little bit more detail and effort into the suggestion :)

 

Well they have, I've seen at least six or seven suggestions for pets that fight.

 

Over what time period? Seven threads isn't that much

 

IT doesn't have to be oversuggested to be bad.

My opinion about this suggestion is that it is an addition that doesn't fit the game. Mobs are there to be hostile, not to be available to be tamed. Wild coyotes are wild, they will always attack you because they're hostile.

 

imo it fits perfectly, it can be used like D&D companions where you don't tame the hostile mobs (that's kinda stupid I agree) but you can get a passive mob that either gives you a passive buff or helps you fight.

 

I feel like mobs fighting for you wouldn't be good but passive buffs like speed or regen (not while you're fighting) would be good.

 

EULA, Only donators would be most likely able to use this. Granted normal players can get pets with the Monthly crate, But Vip+ and Hero can just Get unlimited Pets over time.

 

The thread don't say anything about it being for donators only
