This makes me sad. I spent months trying to get enough laurels to buy Goedulf so he could run around with my new character as I was leveling. Had I known this was going to happen, I would have spent my laurels on Ascended accessories for my level 80 instead. I have also been subjected to the conflicting message of “Volunteer to move to a higher population map” while simultaneously not being able to display my mini pet “due to rising player population.” This completely defeats the purpose of having minis. I would appreciate a return to the old mini system, or at least being able to see my own mini and the minis of people in my party. Please bring back minis in a usable capacity! Thank you! I appreciate your hard work in making this otherwise awesome game!
