Guild Wars 2

The mini pet system in gw2 has a lot of problems right now:

1. Mini pets will disappear when you change zone.

2. They disappear when you died

3. They disappear when you get out of overflow

4. Or get into spvp

5. Or wvw

6. They will be move to collectible bank unless they are in a safe lockbox.

Basically to sum it up, keeping your mini pet up in gw2 requires a lot of micro managments. This leads to discouraging people to use them regularly….

Suggestion for the change:

Minis need to be treat like a piece of armor. When you equip one of those, they will appear automatically any time any where without the need to use them.

This way people can just use and forget about taking them out everytime they log on or worrying about tem going directly to the bank every time you collect your crafting mat.

Agreed. I’ve been wanting to show off my HoM minipets to friends I made in GW2 who haven’t played GW1 and it’s so tedious to have to open inventory and click my mini to activate it over and over after each rezone considering how many short instances there are in the personal story (the ones that involve just talking to an NPC and leaving the instance and then teleporting somewhere else to continue) and how often it sends me to overflow servers in cities and low level areas. I don’t even feel like using minis anymore because it becomes a chore to take them out everytime.

Agreed. I made a post like this but it was buried somewhere, I hope they implement this simple fix.

I totally agree! it’s annoying having to open my inventory and click on my minipet to activate it over and over

Like the autorelease idea. The safe box/invisible bags are fine as they are.
