Hi Anet,

I get that some items are available only in BL Chests. I’ve bought a lot of keys over the years but lately I’m noticing that some of the items are single use account additions that have no alternative use. Minis in particular.

Why not upgrade the Boost Powder to consume any mini that is both account bound and also unlocked. (that way there are no horrifying accidents)

It’s not that I don’t have enough boosters, I do, but it would allow people to feel like they are getting value out of something that is expensive, premium content.

Thanks,

Say what? Convert an extra mini into a booster? I think I can safely say that there is zero chance that they will code a way to turn a mini pet into a booster.

If you are willing to turn a minipet into a booster then just delete it. It obviously didn’t mean that much to you.

Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.

I think you’re missing the point. I actually don’t care what they turn it into, but I don’t like that some of the items you can get from a BL chest are single use items that have zero value and zero use after you get one.

I don’t think someone would be very pleased if they paid 125 gems for a BL Key and got a Mini Snow Owl, Mini Hawk and Mini Raven when they had all 3 unlocked already. If you’re going to sell keys, I think it’s reasonable to expect at least a baseline return.

Turn them into boost powder or repair kits of teleport to a friend – or make them usable in the forge.

I don’t care what they do, but I think they should do something just on the principle.

As the proud owner of 14 mini-Jennahs, I would rather be the proud owner of 14 XP boosters for my alts. :P

Many alts; handle it!

I would think a more reasonable request is to make them all forgeable. Then you can buy cheap minis and combine in the forge and try for one you don’t have.

You mean I could shove 4 Jennahs into a toilet and get, maybe..

Nah, you’d get an exclusive Crying Logan Mini.

I have always just sold any extra minis that I got on the TP. I’m pretty sure they can all be sold there. If you can sell for cash why would you bother to waste on a booster? O.O

Since when did this business of being a hero become being a business?

Soooooo your first thought is that you’ll get your hands on a mostly naked Faren……mini.

Verrrry interesting.

Having 2 of the rarest mini and not being able to sell one is frustrating, I agree.

Some cannot be sold nor forged, such as Jennah and most of the minis from the BL chests.

If not convert your excess mini pets, then maybe they can make a new npc that you can trade that extra mini pet for an item of your choice?

I wasn’t even thinking of Jenna since that does not come from the BLTC chests, just add all of her to wardrobe, problem solved. I had 14 of them at 1 point and just threw them in there.

All minis that I have got so far from the BLTC chests have been tradable. If there are indeed some that are not they need to be made so or something like this idea added in the least.

The current set of minis from the bltc chests are not tradable. A previous set that had the SAB minis were not tradable or forgeable. I got a mini Bee Dog that I ended up deleting as I already had one and there was nothing I could do with that mini.
