Mini pets question - Guild Wars Forums

Yuna_Koas · May 05, 2006, 09:07 AM // 09:07

1. I didn't merge my accounts and they say u can get a mini pet if u have played gw for 1 year. im 10months player and so will i be able to get a mini pet for my original gw account or does that only apply to merged/factions account???

D Fault · May 05, 2006, 09:49 AM // 09:49

It applies to all accounts.
Once a character is one year old you will get a mini pet on it.

Ison Daya · May 05, 2006, 10:12 AM // 10:12

You seem to be slightly confused about how this works, if I'm reading this right.

A single character gets a present at 1 year, not when your account hits one year.

But what chapters you haveshouldn't affect it.

Smaug · May 05, 2006, 11:54 AM // 11:54

how do i get a mini pet if u have been playing for 1 year?
does it automatically appear in your storage/inventory or do u have to get it from somewhere?

P.S. i havent had GW for a year yet so forgive me if this sounds noobish...

You'll see a birthday present in your inventory. Double click it and you'll see a mini-pet in your inventory.
Outside of towns, if you click the mini-pet in the inventory, it will pop out and follow you around. Every time you zone you must pop it out again. If you die it will remain where you fell until you rejoin it, but you can put it in inventory and out again to bring it to you. Here is mine

Mega Storm · May 05, 2006, 12:14 PM // 12:14

Do you feed them? Do they die if attacked if they are seen in combat zones?

Thanks in advance, just wondering.

Edited due to a post that explained some of my questones while i posted this.

fiery · May 05, 2006, 01:32 PM // 13:32

Can't feed them, can't be attacked or can attack.

Merely something to follow you around.

Willy Rockwell · May 05, 2006, 01:44 PM // 13:44

Merely something that forces you to type while running, answering the same questions over and over. *sigh*

Grooben · May 05, 2006, 01:51 PM // 13:51

Wait...I've had the game since retail, as well as my character since retail..so..what?

I'm all sorts of confused. I hate mornings, nothing makes sense in the morning.

Olfin Bedwere · May 05, 2006, 02:27 PM // 14:27

Type /age and it will tell you the age of your character. I don`t remember the exact date that retail came out but I`ve had the same character since the WWWE which was about 6-8 months before retail.

Grooben · May 05, 2006, 02:31 PM // 14:31

This is a little secret, one nickname of mine is Groobles..

..I have a Gulch named after me, suckers! So even if I don't have a mini-pet, I have a gulch.

Mordakai · May 05, 2006, 02:38 PM // 14:38

Just because I can't let it go, if you enter a Factions CE retail key you'll get a special Kuunavang dragon "toy." (They're technically not "pets", they don't attack, take damage, or do anything but look cool.)

You can trade toys, sell them for gold, or give them away. They are stored in you inventory, and come out to play when you click on them. They are only seen outside cities and outposts (explorable areas), and you can only have one toy visible at a time (although you can own and carry as many as your inventory allows).

Mega Storm · May 05, 2006, 02:42 PM // 14:42

Thanks all for the answers. I have a Necrid Horseman now. He's cool

Bai · May 05, 2006, 02:46 PM // 14:46

I heard that some people were buying the Kuunavang Dragon minipet for more than 100k gold!

Djvandal · May 05, 2006, 04:50 PM // 16:50

alot of the minipets are breaking the 100k +ectos mark as many as 40 ectos i have seen

Djvandal · May 05, 2006, 04:51 PM // 16:51

oh and retail shipped on april 26 2006

Dracus Steelbow · May 05, 2006, 07:44 PM // 19:44

So can the pet thing be used only once? or can i click it as many times as i want that day? And can i get anything in the game for example Glint, or one of the Heroes?

Do you have to have Factions for this? I only have the first Guild Wars. I have had it for about 9 or 10 months. Will I get one in 3 months or so even if I do not have Factions?
