Do you plan on using this? =D. If so, will you unlock the pets through physically capping them and training them yourself or will you just use balth faction? ;-) or will you do a combination of both? or do u plan on just buying the pet unlock pack? =D what pet will u put in 1st? If your not even going to bother with it, then why not? =)

I personally will be capping and training them for something new to do =D. but i'm sure i will grow tired of that and end up using some balth faction to unlock too ;-). 1st ones im putting in are dire jingle bear & white moa.

i don't think paying for unlocked pets through the store would really be worth it, lol. especially since it just unlocks the "common" pets. (whatever common pets are considered to be, lol)

Hell Yes!

im glad that GW is getting around to the pet stable idea, where you can choose from one of multiple pets that you've tamed.

The addition of an entire island for this is a nice touch.

Asimo · Apr 20, 2009, 02:12 PM // 14:12

I thought I had a Level 20 Moa, but when I checked my current pet it was a Level 5 Jingle Bear ><

Might take the easy way out with Balth Faction =P (Depending how much each unlock is of course)

different topic. that thread discusses whether or not the menagerie will actually be useful or something. seemed like the OP was ranting just a little bit and complaining how pets are not a big enough part of the game to warrant having a whole island dedicated toward collecting them ;-). this thread discusses how u plan to use the menagerie when it comes out (whether it is useful or useless

).

I can probably spare a skillslot to bring Charm Animal on my Ranger. Guess I'll cap a pet, and just let it travel and level along on my adventures. As soon as it is level 20, I'll take it to the Menagerie.

If the pet isn't Dire or Hearty at that time, I'll unlock the 7th Tier with Zoins. Can't be bothered deathlevelling them or trying to evolve them in a certain way.

Who knows, maybe I'll go Beastmaster for a change.

Buying the pet unlock pack? Hell no! (Besides from the fact that i cant use the in game store, but that discusion got another topic locked and i dont wanna hijack the topic.)

I started this game 3 years ago on the basis that THAT was it. Extensions with new maps and skills was all we needed to pay for. Now they come up with 2 Milkcows (Pay for storage and unlockpacks) at a time that GW is WAY past its shelflife.

If implemented 2 years ago, they would have a winner, and if i _could_ buy it i would consider it. But its to late.

I gotta catch'em all...

For the skill packs, I already had all skills when they were released, and new campaigns added a few.
For the item pack, I got it because it would take a lot of time to unlock everything.
And for the pet pack... well, I just want them all, so if they add a way to quickly switch pets while in outposts like with Heroes, I'll get it. Otherwise, I'll unlock them the slow way by getting every single pet to Level 20 Elder. Doesn't take much time.

FalconDance · Apr 20, 2009, 03:12 PM // 15:12

Dunno. Been waiting four years for a pet stable of some sort, but I'm not sure if this is it. The idea sounds good, but..................

Shayne Hawke · Apr 20, 2009, 03:17 PM // 15:17

I plan on putting my existing pets in there. I probably won't bother with getting/unlocking any new pets unless some buffs are given to pets and I see that they're worth using.

I thought the highest tier was a level 20 pet at Dire or Hearty?

lewis91 · Apr 20, 2009, 03:40 PM // 15:40

Doubt it, for me pets in my bar is a waste of two skills. I might just collect pets as im going along, but im not gonna spend countless hours levelling them in the wurms in hardmode.

Lyphen · Apr 20, 2009, 03:47 PM // 15:47

Other than dumping a white moa, black moa, phoenix and black widow in there, no. And I'm certainly not leveling them.

Pets are useless, but I might aswell place those four in there in case I ever want a pic.

jiggles · Apr 20, 2009, 03:54 PM // 15:54

I aint gonna be using it. Pets are boring :/

mazza558 · Apr 20, 2009, 04:17 PM // 16:17

I'll probably collect all the (easily obtainable) pets and add them, then leave it at that unless pets get buffed to be useful.

Rak Orgon of Beowulf · Apr 20, 2009, 04:36 PM // 16:36

i'll use it as my main is ranger, and it'll give me something different to do when i'm bored. plus i can change pets on a whim for running a lamer Enraged Spear Ranger in RA.

I'll level them all though. Screw paying for pets.

I know its only a matter of time til someone suggests "We should get a title for all pets"....... /facepalm xD

based on their description of the menagerie, I don't think you'll be able to use Balth points for unlocking pets for use in PvE. I'm guessing Balth points will be used the same way they are used for equipment... to be unlocked for your PvP characters.

So, if you want to fill the stable for use in PvE, I think you'll have to train them yourself, though I could be wrong.

Gotta Catch 'Em All (+ train) or Zaishen Coins. Your pick if you're a PvE-er.

I'm hoping that in addition to just having the pets available, it keeps the individual names you give them, not jsut something like HoM armor when it mimics whatever you have on right now (Example, you pet is named xxxxx so whenever you take another pet out of menagerie, it automatically gets named xxxxx)
