This has probably been suggested before but a search returned nothing.
As a new elite skill for the engineer I would LOVE to see the ability to drop a steam minotaur. After our engineers have gone through Dry Top and rummaged about in Scarlet’s secret room it only makes sense. Any engineer worth their salt would have, at the very least, thumb wrestled Taimi for the chance to reverse engineer the one in Scarlet’s room. There may have even been schematics lying about.
So lorewise there is room for this and there are already other pet like elites.
