Default Un-dedicate mini pets

Ever want to sell a mini pet but it's dedicated at your Hall of Monuments? Sure you can still sell them, but you probably won't get as much for it. And some people prefer non-dedicated minis.

This idea came to me when my guild was holding a raffle and winners got mini pets, but they were already dedicated to a HOM.

I think that, for a fee, you should be able to un-dedicate mini pets. And, while we're at it, un-customize weapons. What does everyone else think?

Don't want your minipet dedicated? Don't put it in your hall of monuments. Don't want your weapon customized? Don't customize it.

We don't need to be able to un-dedicate/customize. If you think you're going to want to sell your mini pet/weapon, then keep it as it is. It's as simple as that.

I think the three warning screens or so you get WARNING you what will happen when you dedicate something to a monument should be enough.

Free Monuments of Devotion and Valor for everyone right?

Dedicate/customize serve a purpose and unless the fee is the same as the cost of a mini Polar Bear, you should not be allowed to reverse it.

Dedicate:

To commit (oneself) to a particular course of thought or action.

It's been suggested a LOT of time... and each action has consequences (think before dedicating/customizing).

Do you know WHY things are dedicated/customized?

No, why? Because then people would dedicate, undedicate, sell, and still have those minipets in their HoM. The only way this can be a good thing is if you can remove the minipet from your HoM. And if that is what this idea is changed to, then it must be that you have to have the mini pet you dedicated in your inventory, so that you cannot simply buy another mini pet of the same kind, dedicate it on another character, undedicate it on your first character, then sell.

Although an idea that would be loved by the poor, it is just poorly thought out. If you want to not get flamed to death like Solange, I suggest thinking through and not posting half-a$$ed ideas. Not to be insulting or anything but its the truth, and truth hurts.

What this thread tells me:

Buy a Mini Kuunavang, Mini Gwen and Mini Destroyer Dedicated, then undedicate them by whatever means, and enjoy the overflow of gold by reselling them.

GW already has the most forgiving system of any game of its type. You can restructure skill tree at any time. You can change secondaries. You can map anywhere.

Having one or two things like customization and dedicated mini-pets doesn't destroy the game.

I don't know... some of the replies here are as equally 'win' as the OP...

Oh, and the OP is a horrid idea.

What do you think is the point of dedicating them in the first place?

Dedication and customization should not be undone. Then people can easily buy them for cheap and undedicate/uncustomize and sell for higher.

So if every player had an option to remove dedication/customization, this would be an issue?

It might help to think before you click reply
