I have received two of these. I am unable to add either of them. When I mouse over, there’s a “miniature locked” written on the tab. Does anyone know why this is and how to unlock it?

Thanks.

You can’t right click on one to send it to your mini pet section on your hero panel?

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

No, nothing happens when I right click. “miniature locked” is greyed out. I’m new to the game and only have two other miniatures. I had no issues with either one of those. I even removed one of those two from the (preview) window in case that was interfering (on all of my characters).

Are you right clicking from inventory or in your hero panel? You need to do it from inventory. If it won’t add from there, then I suggest you submit a ticket to Support (look at the bottom of this page for the link).

I was clicking it from my inventory. I’ll submit a ticket. Thanks, everyone for your help.

I think miniatures get locked when there are too many of them in a zone (such as Lion’s Arch, for example). Try going out somewhere where hardly anyone is (if you can find such an area) and see if you are able to use it there.

I tried two different areas, Bloodtide Coast and Blazeridge Steppes, and it’s still locked. Thanks for the suggestion though.

If you have the mini in your inventory then you need to right click it and select ‘Add to Account Wardrobe’. This will unlock it in the mini section of the Hero menu so you can activate it and have it follow you all the time, on any of your characters.

Alternatively you can double click it, which will keep it in your inventory but also display it in the game world. This allows you to keep the mini to potentially sell later, but means you can only use it on the character who has it in their inventory and you will need to reactivate it every time you change zones.

I have contacted support and although the issue hasn’t been resolved, they have suggested to me that this is a bug of some sort. Will let you know of the outcome.

Presumably it’s not account bound? What happens if you sell that one and get a second one and try it?

Alternatively, you might have a corrupted file. You could try a client repair and see if that’s a problem.

Make sure you don’t have the mini in an invisible bag, move it to a different bag slot

I havent lvled a toon in a while, is there a lvl restriction on getting and using minis? I know some other items are gated by your current character level. What lvl are you?

No, no restrictions. My level 1 char still in the starter instance can use a mini. When we got the mini dragon, my alt account that has only level 20s could apply it to the wardrobe and then use it.

“miniature locked” will be there and will be grayed out until you add them to your wardrobe as Danikat suggested, then it will change to “miniature unlocked”.
That is just showing you the status of that miniature. FYI, if you add it to your wardrobe, you can then sell the extras you receive on the TP.

Two days ago, I wasn’t able to “add it to my wardrobe”, however this afternoon I was finally able to do so.

Thanks all, for all of your suggestions!
