Guild Wars 2

Stumbled across a mini tiger that isn’t so tiny, I want it!

Does anyone know how to get it?

Lol looks like a fake pic to me. Let me guess you used a tonic or endless cat tonic, took a screenshot in that screen then used some photo shop skills? :P

Lol the fact that it’s a totally different mini in the selection box pretty much proves my theory.

If you look just right of the ghost mini on the 5th row you can see the tiger icon or you can go ingame and see it yourself.
Also paul minis in the selected box dont change if you dont have the mini unlocked.
As for how to unlock it I guess wait for the next gemshop update?
Oh and also the mini tiger is about half as high as my max size sylvari so maybe it really is that size to an asura.

What he said

Hopefully they don’t change the size I love it lol and yes I have smallest Asura possible

It is that size in game preview. Man that is big.
I wouldn’t mind a standardizing of sizes for minis earlier ones where too small, the latest ones are getting too big. Lots of work but hey after the release what else is anyone going to do?

actually the mini is rather large when previewed. I noticed this the other day, as I was looking through minis and previewing them for my ranger.

Yeah. I saw that mini that’s not so mini and I wanted it badly. So cool. I hope that’s it’s real size and not a bugged preview.

LOL! I freaked when I saw this last night. I scream GIMME GIMME and toss grabby hands at my pc screen. I think they just haven’t resized it yet. Which if that’s the case… what a buzzkill! I love me a giant tiger “mini” ;_; <3

It’s a bugged preview. It happens to me all the time.

Nohhhhh! Hopes and Dreams shattered so quickly. v_v

It’s a gemstore mini. Coming soon.
Dulfys notes from a datamine Up coming items from August 11th
They had no image of it at the time of posting though :P

OMG this thing is huge and my char is set to the smallest.

I was under the impression that if you get smaller or ‘shrunk’ via spells or effects, then when you preview minis in that panel, you appear smaller than the minis. Thus, effects like the one you’re seeing.

It’s just perspective and programming.

No doubt. But when I previewed it I wasn’t under any shrunken effects via spells or effects and the mini wasn’t mini.

Hmmm well I did notice new tiger ambients in the beta map so maybe this is related to HOT. Dare I say it (just to stir the pot some :P) the 1st of incoming mounts!?

Lol so it looks like an incoming mini with a bugged preview. WTG!

I hope it stays huge! Then we can all pretend to be Rangers … or circus tamers, as I note the outfit my guy is in tonight.

I’m guessing more bugged than anything. Though it would be awesome if it stayed that size. But unlikely given how some have already complained about the size of the mini dragon. . . .

Mmm maybe this bug has revealed a new avenue for ANet to monetize, massive minis! (as oxymoron as that is). Seems people like the idea of it in any case.
Would be a bit problematic in combat… maybe a option that auto scales down minis in combat?
