WoC Mini's? - Guild Wars Forums

Daddy · Oct 04, 2011, 04:57 PM // 16:57

War in Kryta had them, why wouldn't the Winds of Change?

ErrantVenture · Oct 04, 2011, 05:08 PM // 17:08

Don't forget that WoC isn't finished yet and the all the GW:Beyond content won't be the same/offer the same rewards.

Daddy · Oct 04, 2011, 05:14 PM // 17:14

Yes, but mobs in WiK could always drop mini's as well as greens, and to my knowledge, no WoC mob has dropped anything more than a green.

You know, if you consider the high value items you can get from zaishen strongboxes, zaishen chest, hall of heroes chest, WiK minis, coffer of whispers, etc.... it tends to be too much about having a lot of luck, which means farming...

I don't care about luck relying, but i guess the game is already enough about farming...It would surely be a good idea to have minis, but 95% of players would just want them to instantly sell them for big amounts instead of the mini itself...

**cosyfiep** · Oct 04, 2011, 05:55 PM // 17:55

we have yet to see the last part, and there is NO repeatable content so far (like the wik bounties)....so I doubt there will be minis---but since anet has done things that make no sense before---
(greens??? all I get are jade bracelets!)

Dewshine Wildclaw · Oct 04, 2011, 06:07 PM // 18:07

Can't say I wouldn't like minies too, but even if they did drop or something I wouldn't get any, I never got any of the good drops in WiK, I never got any mini from nick, I never got any good from strongboxes or such, never got that dumb polar bear... I would be kidding myself if I thought I'd had the luck to get anything good drop in WoC be it any of these new greens or some mini. Bitter rant done.

Wouldn't mind the addition of minies in WoC, already plenty of minies in the game though so perhaps that's why we havn't seen any.

Yol · Oct 04, 2011, 10:59 PM // 22:59

Wasn't the reason for giving tonics as 6th birthday presents that the live team didn't think there were any more decent models left for mini-pets, and that they thought there were too many different mini-pets available? I'd be very surprised if any new mini-pets were added to the game from here on.

Konig Des Todes · Oct 04, 2011, 11:33 PM // 23:33

Ugh, don't we have enough minis? (And greens for that matter...) Also, what Yol said.

You're killing the wrong foes. You wanna kill the MoP, not the Jade Brotherhood.

This ^

No objection to having WoC mini's in the game, but I just KNOW I'll never see one myself. I farmed HM Falken like a madman before they nerfed his rewards (all-human DwG teams)... and I never once saw anyone get a mini.

I've also farmed the HM Wanted quests since they started - repeating each one 7 times using different characters, and again - never seen a mini. (I use drop-stealing heroes though, and these days I only do Greves and the "Kessex triple" run. But still :-P

I have near-religiously farmed for Nick every week, using two accounts for 10 items every time. No mini's there.

I keep trying though - I would love to get a mini Yakkington, or a mini Izzy (to keep, not to sell)... but I'm not holding my breath...

Bright Star Shine · Oct 05, 2011, 11:10 AM // 11:10

More tonics might be cool though...

Everlasting Afflicted tonic anyone?

I would say everlasting MoP tonic, but there are costumes for that...

Also wouldn't mind Everlasting Togo tonic or Kisu or something like that.. But I wouldn't care that much..

**cosyfiep** · Oct 05, 2011, 11:25 AM // 11:25

mini afflicted would be cool.....always wanted a mini afflicted rit....

no tonics please---I have been selling (giving away) the ones I got for birthdays---like minis better.

(Konig Des Todes: and the mop dont drop anything for me...only the stupid jade seem to want to drop)

Daddy · Oct 05, 2011, 02:35 PM // 14:35

(I know that I'm not the only one thinking this) Yes there are quite a few mini's in the game, but not many available. My hom is 42/50 with all 50!!! mini's dedicated. Now I know that is not too impressive, but just for a sec think about how many mini's have been dedicated if each account just fills out 1 hom....... Yes that's quite a few. So why would there not be a new group of minis. WiK had what 3-4? I don't think I'm asking for a lot, but it would seem that there should/will be WoC minis.

**cosyfiep** · Oct 05, 2011, 03:23 PM // 15:23

there are 6 total mins from the wik (3 from the gifts and 3 that can drop)
but yeah, I can see your point daddy---I had filled 3 characters out for the minipet monumnet before it went account wide--so lots of duplicates (the wallows were good for that).
I would like to see more minis....there are still a bunch of enemies I can think of making into them.

Dewshine Wildclaw · Oct 05, 2011, 05:33 PM // 17:33

I see your point Daddy, also would be nice to potentially get more of the minipets for the HoM without buying them.
That there are not enough good skins left to make minipets of is stupid reason.
and... minies > tonics

Kamatsu · Oct 06, 2011, 01:00 AM // 01:00

Question has been answered to the best of the players ability to do so - ie we don't know & WoC is a 3 part story and not finished so is still possible mini's will be introduced in 3rd part.. and as this thread is now degenerating into a wish's / suggestion / ideas thread/discussion... (Q&A is not the place for this)

Thread closed.
