I did just think of one kinda sad thing about the wardrobe pet system, which of course, will probably just effect me and be another ‘one of those things’, I guess.

Many of my pets don’t swim, but they are my favorite pets. For those characters that like to use pets that can’t swim, I have another pet that I carry, and when I hit water, it’s as simple as opening up my bag, and double-clicking on that pet to bring it up. When I get to the surface, I use the other pet again.

Of course, ideally, it would be nice if they’d go back and put the effort into letting those other pets swim, but profit margins, and that’s what we have.

Now, if it’s part of the wardrobe system, it’s not going to be easy for me to find that other pet and change it on the fly. I’ll effectively have to skin my pet from a list of many pets.

I’m sure others have thought of it, but it just hit me while I was swimming around waiting for SB and switched to the Halloween Asuran Pilot from my favorite holiday puppy pet. I suppose I could solve the problem by now skinning everyone with a pet that happens to be on my favorite list ‘and’ can swim, but that’s boring. And I really like the puppy with my Thief, and the plush griffon with my Ranger. Oh well.

I had a similar thought, was wondering what would happen with a non-swimming pet. Maybe we’ll be pleasantly surprised if we can chose an underwater mini.

“Whose Kitten is this?” – “It’s a Charr baby.”
“Whose Charr is this?”- “Ted’s.”
“Who’s Ted?”- “Ted’s dead, baby. Ted’s dead.”

I think they showed us a screen shot and it just had one pet. But, it could have been an early build, and they thought of it, but I’m not going to hold my breath…as it were.

It’s not very likely, but we’ll see.

“Whose Kitten is this?” – “It’s a Charr baby.”
“Whose Charr is this?”- “Ted’s.”
“Who’s Ted?”- “Ted’s dead, baby. Ted’s dead.”
