Default How fast are Kuunavangs being Dedicated?

As we all know kuunavang was a special collectors edition minipet, well, WAS given to everyone who purchased the factions collectors edition.

A TON of people are dedicating these everyday as I have come to believe, and it only becomes more scarce.

What percentage of the unded kuunavangs do you think will be dedicated in the next year? What percentage are dedicated now? Will these become expensive and scarce in the future?

Your opinions!

I've dedicated mine. The merchants won't dedicate theirs knowing how much more rare and coveted they may be. The rest just don't care.

1 dedicated and sold it ages ago and 1 undeded on another account and will sell it when the time is right or I need money.
As more get dedicated the price will rise Unless they go back on there word and release a few Kunnys now as minis.

Sorry, but this seems like a bad ploy to try to scare people into wanting to buy a kuunavang before its "too late", so that people, perhaps even the OP themselves, can make a killing selling their stockpiled kunnavangs.

Simple form: The OP may be trying to combine powertrading and psychology for personal profit.

EDIT: looked through the OPs posts, and indeed, found a post of him trying to buy an unded kuunavang a few weeks ago. What a surprise, huh?

/agree with above post. why post about just kuunavangs, and not rare pets in general?

Looking through his posts again, he's obsessed with fobbing off some average demon fangs.

Well people are going to be in for a shock going by what's been said. It doesn't matter which mini goes in the hall, as long as you have 20 of them to fill it up.

well, after paying cold hard cash for my CE to get my sweet little dragon, he was the very first pet to get dedicated in my HoM. I have absolutely no plans whatsoever to sell mine. He's just too cute!!!

This was more of a discussion than a question, so I moved it to Riverside.

/agree. Even if this weren't the direct intention, I know that a lot of players can have be influenced on decisions made here. This would only be more sure to happen if the thread gets discussed more.

Kuunavangs are overpriced already, imo. I don't think I'd waste the money to get one.

Not really any idea...
But I know that if I had one I would dedicate it.
So if everyone is like me, I'd say it wouldn't be long until every single one was dedicated...
(sadly when I chose which version of GW:F to get, collectors didn't yet have the Kuunavang mini... and when it was added, it wasn't like I'd go out and get another copy of GW:F, just to get the mini... I chose wrong because I didn't know Anet would ad a mini back then, and I don't have enough gold to get one)
IMO Kuunavang mini have always been worth a lot bacause of the way it was added, and since there aren't many of them ingame and the dedication have been introduced it's price will sky rocket (along with other rare minis).

Anyone can go buy a Factions CE and get a Kunny. I doubt they'll run out any time soon. It's a legit way of buying gold. Buy CE for xx $, sell Kunny for xxx amount of gold.

For that, you'd need to know how many were given, etc. How many will be dedicated in the next year is pure speculation. I'm sure there will be a grace period after GW2 starts and then players will decide what to do with theirs.

For me, I sold it 15 minutes after it was released and then bought it later on the cheap.

You can still find them. I don't think they make them anymore, but you can certainly still find them.

Well, sooner or later there will be so few of them that they will cost millions.

They were not considered when making that Devotion monument.

No item in the game, even if its something just for looks, should be restricted in any way.

Hard to get, super extreme requisites... once every 10 years... whichever the conditions are, no item should be limited so only some can get them and then no one more.

That also includes pre-order weapons. There should be upgrades two or three years after the a preorder, and then allow people to buy upgrade keys in the Shop to get them if they missed them.
