Guild Wars 2

I think (and truly hope) that this is the right place for this thread. I am posting this on behalf of the entire MOO guild on NSP, and this is for everyone to show their support of dolyaks as the new ranger pet. It would be primarily pretty tanky and be the first pet with a reasonable F2 knockdown/charge skill. To avoid making it over-powered it could have a long recharge such as that of Flesh Golem’s “Charge” skill (about 40 seconds, or even make it 60 seconds). If the model is too large, then the size could be reduced to the size of a smaller Festive Dolyak. Anyway! Feedback/support/criticism for it goes here. Thanks!

i want a lion before i would want a dolyak

The Dolyak would be a great addition and a Norn favorite for obvious reasons. I agree that a with Chicken Fro on the stats recommendations.

Another slow pet that can’t land a hit? Na I’ve got dozens of those…

This would be awesome for MOO, for the obvious reasons, but this animal is a landmark for all in Tyria. I also agree with stats as stated by LeggoMyDrago. Diversity of choice is a players best friend, and recognition by symbols are a guilds best friend.

As a member of Moo and a Dolyak fanatic I support this.

We have way too many pets that roar,claw, jump, pounce poison etc..

A nice solid charge with a head butt is a welcome change an an awesome addition to pets for Rangers.

Considerimg the dolyak calf wintersday mini, the season one wvw mini, and the dolyak finisher; this would be the perfect completion for this year. It is a standard for Tyria, especially world versus world. But with the constant presence of dolyaks everywhere, why would rangers not learn how to tame one. They don’t have to be lightweights in the damage department. They hurt when I fight them in wvw. Obviously the stats would be up to the developers. Headbutting, or dropping medkits from packs, or other skills could be developed for it. Creativity is open for this one. I vote yes on dolyaks.

I, Axxon, give my vote for this addition to Guild Wars 2. Even though I main a warrior, the Ranger class has always intrigued me, and I was considering to create one. Being a memeber of the guild which Chicken Fro leads, I have heard his desire for the Dolyak as a charmable pet loud and clear. I will kindly ask that this request be at least considered.

I agree, a dolyak pet would be awesome! I highly encourage ANET to support this idea!

This is a great idea. Dolyaks are a staple to this game. I would love a Dolyak pet and then turn into a dolyak and then pull out the dolyack mini. Basically This is idea is very much a goal of what this game is about which is to have fun. I strongly urge Anet to put this concept into play.

Agreed. Rangers, NEED dolyak pets. I support the stats recommended by ChickenFro.

I agree with the stats that ChickenFro provides for the dolyak as a charmable pet. Dolyaks are all over Tyria already and technically “domesticated” by NPCs, it would make sense that a ranger would be able to do the same thing. I think the dolyak would be a fun pet to add to a rangers inventory of pets. My support with with ChickenFro and I hope this gets considered!

For some reason I agree to this…idk if its the lottery I am about to win but I will say yes to Yak Rangers

I approve of this completely!

No ranger should roam dolyak-less.

AGREE TOTALLY i need me my dolyak

Yesssssssssssssssssssss….. Dolyak pets OP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This should be a thing.

I love the idea. Anet plz.

I, Thebeginning, Approve of the idea that rangers should get a dolyak pet. It is over-due that rangers gain a new pet. And in my opinion there is a great deal of skill sets that dolyaks could have.

Not opposed to this idea, but I want a Griffin or Basilisk pet before a Dolyak.

Guys post this in the Ranger CDI topic in Profession Balance, it’ll probably be more likely to be considered then. Possibly in conjunction with a ‘make it actually mean something when a pet is there’ suggestion in general.

I also agree with having Dolyak as pets! Would be awesome to have them as companions

I, Godric, support his. As a Yaktain in MOO I feel it is my duty to voice my opinion. Dolyaks are a staple to this game, so it is only natural that they should be a tamable ranger pet.

I think the MOO players are onto something here…. Dolyaks would be a boost to a profession that would be interesting. Not only that, but offering new ideas to the pet selections itself would also stir up more play from the Ranger category. PLUS, not something that would need a lot of work to accomplish since the code needed for this is probably already there. This is an idea that could offer more pets from the land of Tyria to make an appearance on the Ranger list as well……

I throw my vote in for this as well but you don’t have to stop with Dolyaks either !!

Many F2 skills are around 40-60 seconds. It is not really long.
