One of the Elite Mission in Factions, Underworld, FOW, or one of the areas in the Domain of Anguish. All Areas are accessible. No monsters spawn and you have free run of the area. Your goal is to run around the area mapping it. 4-5 chests spawn in random locations and you can open them for free. You get a least one gold and a very good percent on the remainder of the chests to get gold as well. Happy B-Day!

I think we need something special to commemorate our birthdays, not just a bunch of cash or weapons we could get any ol' day. Even with something as simple as the minis, you can only get them yourself on your birthday, with the small exception of the occasional special event. But then the people that would just prefer some cash or weapons for their birthday just sell their minis and put it towards whatever they did want so it works out.

/r/
mini Griffon (or any winged creature)
mini Tengu (probably coming out next DotT i hope?)
mini Rollerbeetle (more common version for the 'not-top 100' racers)

minipet storage is easy; make a new tab in storage. 1 slot for each pet and put 1 pet in there (like stacks for materials) to make it accessible by account anywhere. (explorable areas get a new button or inventory slot to use mini pets in battle). Collecting made easy.

Im going to put in my two cents and say:
No new mini pets as the 2nd year b-day present.
I have nothing against mini pets and I wouldnt mind collecting new ones as they became available. However, something different would be nice, such as the idea of disguises (for one example).

Now I know that the ability to map instantly to any city you have already been sort of negated the point for mounts in this game but.. i still think GW is missing mounts. Lots of other online games get them... star wars.. wow... I want em.

You could work out how they would work, I have faith in anet! Maybe they would move a little slower than sprinting.. (to keep runners from using them). something.. that would be ubber cool.

I do realize that this would probably take alot of time on the developers end as well as req a new build of GW. But it would make me very happy when I turn 2.

before anyone laughs at my suggestion, remember, its my birthday wish.

We already have stripping Rangers... we don't need a friggin' DONKEY SHOW... bleahhh...flashbacks of Clerks 2. *shudder*

I'd love to have one minipet off yourself x] I'd love to have my lil motoko running around in her fow armor. But maybe thats just too much =P More armor storage!! A BUNY! A freakin mini bunny rabbit I say!!!!

Priest Of Sin · Mar 08, 2007, 12:21 AM // 00:21

Heh, it'd be hillarious if on your 2nd Bday you got to get smashed by Gwen again. *fond memories of getting ker-ploded in the beta*

stiffler · Mar 08, 2007, 05:46 AM // 05:46

If they go ahead with the 2nd year BD present the actual gift box item will need to indicate that it is a "2nd year" present to avoid scammers trying to pass of a 1st year as a 2nd year.

Tide to Go · Mar 08, 2007, 09:12 PM // 21:12

Adelbern may haps?

And the toymaker obviously wouldn't work since they said minis will never be customized.

Introducing, Toymaker Fred! Just show him one mini bone dragon or any other rare mini, then sell it and buy another for only 100 gold! Making players rich and killing the economy in only a matter of days!

There should definitely be some sort of command like /birthday or something that you can only do at 2yrs old.

Mini Cat
Mini Snake
Mini Dog
Mini Me

Mini Alien
Mini Spaceship
Mini Weapon (follows you around and shoots or attacks enemy but deals no damage)

Mini 4-leaf Clover

Cpt. Silverhawk · Mar 09, 2007, 02:04 AM // 02:04

I think it should be something that shows your "Rank" or "Title" on your armor. Maybe a medallion or something like that. It would be nice if it was something that was functional as well and that you can't sell. Make people "earn" it. I still have my first two Characters from when the original came out and I think they should be rewarded as such.

Just my 2cents.

Well duh! It would pop up a message that says "Happy Birthday"

that's it.

Yeah... Happy Birthday. Whee.

Gib Resahp · Mar 09, 2007, 09:10 AM // 09:10

Don't have read every page, but was this idea posted already : ?

As most people love miniatures why not implement an ...

Signet of Miniature

just like Signet of Capture its a Signet you can just use once.
And you can use it, to just make a minipet of any target.
So you can make a mini pet of your favorite NPC, monster, yourself, any player,...

1. This would make those highly demanded miniatures like Panda (which costs >300 ectos) available to anyone who want one, just go and miniaturize a panda.

2. Its very personal, cause you choose which miniature you really want.

3. It brings the miniature hype to a new dimension. Collectors now need hundreds of miniatures.

4. If this idea isn't implemented for the 2nd birthday, then maybe for the 3rd ?

I really like this idea. it doesnt take up inventory space, it cant be sold and its unique. And the player has to undergo some kind of quest to get it, if he wants an extraordinary one. Only flaw...it doesnt glow

The pet should be customized.

I alos see the problem that players who bought a mini shiro fe payed a lot of money to get one and feel betrayed now. Also the CE owners.

Edit: Another idea for a new emote: juggling with balls in the professions color. Of course glowing balls

or not only balls, but knives in the case of assassins, spiral-thingies for mesmer, ankhs for monks, skulls for necros...

Jongo River · Mar 09, 2007, 04:20 PM // 16:20

I imagine mini-pets go through some re-modelling/simplification or at least need a different script to control their actions against the "live" version, so I'm not sure how realistic this idea is. That said, the obvious way to avoid upsetting CE owners is to label "captured" pets white. Green versions would still be more valuable.

zknifeh · Mar 09, 2007, 05:12 PM // 17:12

if more minipets, i say id love to have:

Mini Bladed Aatxe (been dreaming of 1 since minipets ame out) pref making it same size as mini titan, since real aatxe are so huge

Mini smites would be cool 2, so would be the siege worms
mini griffons
mini lich

and definately more storage (pref all cahracters)

emotes would be cool 2, the thing id love is something like dropping the urn/spear in factions and when they were dropped u had this "spirit" rise up and do its emote, that would be cool thing to have IMO and the emote should be of ur character for example

viper008 · Mar 09, 2007, 06:28 PM // 18:28

Mini Heket.......................

Katrina Sandstorm · Mar 09, 2007, 08:17 PM // 20:17

Common white miniatures:

Purple Uncommon Miniatures:

A Mini Nightmare of some sort! Could swap with the ice imp maybe =]
A Mini Creeping Carp - Yay! ! !
A Mini Djinn of some kind eg. Water, Overseer!!! =] =]!

Gold Rare Miniatures:

A Mini Gwen!! =o =O !!!! =} =}!!!
A Mini Dead Sarah Ghost!! That would be so amazing =D

Green Miniature:

A Mini Sanctum Cay Butterfly! ! ! ! ! ! This is a MUST have mini! We need the flying butterfly mini pet! I cannot wait till April so I can recieve my butterfly miniature!

Thank you very much for reading my suggestions and I look forward to seeing the mini butterfly in game soon!
