Guild Wars 2

I like vanity pets in my MMOs, but sometimes it can be a drag to pop in my inventory screen everytime I log on or go to another map just to have the pet appear before me. Is there some chance this could be remedied real soon?

Read last Wednesday’s blog post. You may be pleased.

It’s being remedied on the patch on the 9th.

I just did. Man, it has been a while since I last read anything on the site. Thanks.

Hopefully it will be remedied the blog simply talks about being able to activate and equip them similarly to outfits, however that doesn’t guarantee that they will auto-activate and stay activated (see: dying and waypointing, entering water, and other ways of despawning mini-pets, unintentionally).

You may have missed this part of the announcement:

‘Once equipped, there is a show/hide check box that summons and hides your currently equipped miniature. When shown, minis will appear next to you in every map you travel to with no further work necessary to deploy them.’

From the blog post.

“When shown, minis will appear next to you in every map you travel to with no further work necessary to deploy them.”

I think I hear an echo….lol. ; )

Call me skeptical.

True. I guess we will all find out in about 3 or 4 days. =) Any implementation will be better than what we have now, though. I always forget to put them back out. Well, almost always. Lol.

>Mini ON
>sudo Mini ON

yep…

It’s okay to be skeptical. That what you’re not disappointed if it doesn’t work out. I just think it probably will (which means I’ll be disappointed if it doesn’t lol).

I would have posted that faster but due to infractions I have a cooldown between posts. I typed it and didn’t look at the thread again until I posted. lol

Same here! And I even bought that mini from the TP specifically to always show off….

Next step… make them KEEP UP with you! Sometimes it seems to take up to 30 seconds after you stop moving before they come sauntering along.
