Mad King's Guard Minipet

It's been years since the last minipet release. How do people here think anet will release it to the public?
Edit: Yes, obviously they are giving it away at the art contest. I'm asking if people here think anet will release more in other ways.

My thoughts:
-Art contest only making anyone who wins it instantly ridiculously rich
-In game reward like a celestial animal
-In game reward like a polar bear

They're doing it through the art contest. They already announced that.

So....option 1

If it goes #1 think about #3 and add a decimal place and you'll be on the right track. 20 of these would make it the rarest player obtainable miniature in the game which is why I think it will be available some other way, possibly #2.

yay, another minipet :

- useless for 99.99999% of the community
- not customized to the person that really deserved it (or automatically dedicated or impossible to trade or anything)


thanks for spending your precious time on such things anet, don't tell me anymore that you don't have enough time for skill balances

People are silly, paying $lolarmbraces for a minipet x_x

I'm hoping we see something like option 3, but we'll see \o_O/

Majority of highend plp do trades involving these types of mini. Next titles are useless for large majority as well, there for epeen nothing more, sounds like you are just jealous

yeah it is silly. i vote for option 2. but when you can Only get a certian mini buy spending that amount for it what else can you do to get it? not all of us can be talented.

more than likely just option 1 that way it is actually a valuable prize to be competed for.

Ooooo. Well Delo doesn't care for this mini... He's lucky and dumb so he'll probably get one for 500e.

Who knows, it may appear in some way during the Halloween event. A-Net did say they were working on new stuff for Halloween, so it's a possibility.

I doubt it. I think they've said there will only be 20 and the 20 will only be for the contest.

Nothing's happened one way or the other yet but...

Wouldn't it make more sense to give the winners Armbrace stacks? Here's to hoping they don't go this route.

20 unded would make them the second rarest mini in the game. Still gets beat out by kanaxai in terms of unded left in the game. Should still be worth many thousand braces

Your a fat noob who wants my zhed.

I see nothing wrong with only 20 of them being in the game. They are prizes for a competition, giving them out for other stuff detracts from the original competition. On that same note though I wouldn't have a problem with them giving them out every year like the roller beetles.

Umad? Even if you had the last unded zhed in GW i wouldn't buy it off you. No way.

I doubt they would release it in any other way besides through contests, which really sucks for all of us non-artists, but whatever. There need to be some rewards in the game that can prove that you have some specific skill at something (or at least a large enough heap of money to pay for that image).

I lol'd and promptly disregarded your post.

Move along, folks, nothing to see here.

Thanks for making a useless post and focusing on exactly what I wrote, versus what was obviously implied. I'll help you out and post "mini pet that was from a contest." No one cares about 4th year bday present minis or gift of the traveler minis.

"highend" people are the 0.00001% of the community I did not talk about


why do you feel the need to talk about my "jealousy" ? do you feel too "highend" for people to criticize your e-gold makers ? (see I can do random trolls too)


you didn't understand anything, so I'll try to rephrase so even id... people like you can understand : "Why is Anet wasting time on a dumb mini (that will end up being powertraded to death) instead of spending their time on important skill balances ?"
