Guild Wars 2

On my ranger I just catched a wolf in Lonar’s Pass and in doing so I had to
kill the whole pack + wolf pups because I got close.
How likely would a wolf kill his whole pack + pups for a complete stranger I was wondering..
With the upcoming expansion I think its something worthy to think about;
what can a ranger/druid do to be accepted by some dangerous potential new jungle pets?
Improving on this AI can make it much more rewarding to catch a difficult rare pet if your chosen approach /strategy succeeds.It can also provide a new interesting way of survival in the jungle.(If a % of the same NPC species as your pet, can turn into allies on the map while the rival counterpart animal might start to hunt you too )
Much more interesting than just walking to a juvenile beast and pushing a button to catch it for 100% certain imo

In the first Guild Wars, you had to channel a long activation skill while it attacked you to charm a pet. If it had interrupts, you just had to try again.

yea I can remember that from gw1 too,which was slightly more exciting than the passive juvenile creatures we have now.Although I think with improved wildlife behaviour they can truly make it an exciting experience.Very suitable for this expansion in jungle setting I think

Some time ago I watched a documentry about a man who became “part of” a group of hyenas. They accepted him as one of their own. But the interesting fact was that, hyenas were more likely to become hostile towards each other (towads their ex-leader in the documentry) rather than this man. I guess it’s not about the race/skin color/physical features as much as it is about whether you behave according to specific rules. We should learn from animals.

Very interesting Oulov,
Perhaps for each species there could be a ruleset and the ranger has to discover how to blend in best.
The better the ranger succeeds at this the higher the chances to catch an Alpha wolf instead of juvenile wolf for example..catching pets becomes a game by itself.While the ranger will gain another way of getting through the dangerous jungle ;by following the rules of the most prominent species in the area(yet there is still a chance that some turn hostile or perhaps for some species you have to prove yourself through combat before you can become allies,by fighting the alpha wolf for example..then all the ranks below will become allies if you win)

Yes please!

I just wish our pets would kittening grow up. It’s been 2 years they should be full size by now.
