Do you like devourers?

Lonesamurai · Mar 30, 2009, 11:56 AM // 11:56

they are cool, I'd have a pet Devourer, but I can think of other monsters I'd rather have as a pet

kostolomac · Mar 30, 2009, 12:10 PM // 12:10

Only the giant one, he is pretty cool.

thats more of a mount than a pet

Eragon Zarroc · Mar 30, 2009, 01:33 PM // 13:33

the devourer mount is pretty cool. i like the skills and the power of it. the only bad thing about it is the fact that it forces u into 1st-person view, lol. it can get kinda annoying. especially since the devourers movements are quite jerky.

Pinkest One · Mar 30, 2009, 02:29 PM // 14:29

Race them,what?

Erm...another pointless thread

+1 for post-count i guess
EDIT: *rubs eyes*I get it now you meant "race" as in species,i really should finish my coffee before posting.

OT: Who couldn't love one of the first little buggies you meet in pre!

moriz · Mar 30, 2009, 02:35 PM // 14:35

devourers are the cockroaches of GW: once the charr and asura invent nuclear weaponry and annihilate tyria, devourers will take over the world!

I meant all devourers.

Snograt · Mar 30, 2009, 03:06 PM // 15:06

I hate Devourers.

I hate anything that pops up.

slowerpoke · Mar 30, 2009, 03:11 PM // 15:11

a scourge for players in early prophecies

kazi_saki · Mar 30, 2009, 03:13 PM // 15:13

haha! Devourers are awesome as pets. They sting and sh*t yo.

Issac · Mar 30, 2009, 03:15 PM // 15:15

I think their cool

MithranArkanere · Mar 30, 2009, 03:54 PM // 15:54

I don't know. I have tasted mandragors, skales, ibogas and drakes, but never devourers.

vandevere · Mar 30, 2009, 04:00 PM // 16:00

Do I like Devourers?

Yeah... Batter-fried, with butter-lemon sauce...

Other than that, meh...

Kind of aggravating, the way they pop up out of nowhere the way they do...

Yeah, thanks for that

I think I've seen one too many of them. But seriously, what's there to discuss?

Painbringer · Mar 30, 2009, 04:17 PM // 16:17

Nothing beats them especially when you are playing a warrior thumping away on one for the first time since crossing from pre and wondering why it is taking so long to hurt it.

I would love different pets esspecially with skills

For a moment, I was prepared to write, "It's not April 1 yet".

I like how the Siege Devourers look. But in general, they really have butt-ugly faces.

Game-wise, I can't stand them. They popup all over the place in Prophecies just like scarab beetles. Popups are nothing but a huge annoyance in Guild Wars. They are overused as a gimmick to setup a cheap ambush. I can tell that they only exist to just slow down players from getting somewhere. ArenaNet stuffed them all over the chokepoints in the map so you can't just run past every monster spawn.

As an aside, I noticed that ArenaNet likes inventing monsters that waste a lot of players' time. Like the Incubus in Eye of the North that just repeatedly fly down, then leave, then they repeat this (annoying) cycle over and over until you kill them all. Or how Margonites have that boring Abbadon's Chosen skill that is basically designed to annoy players, especially since they will often merge it with Abbadon's Favor for cheap infinite healing.
