Frozen Burn Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 So... love the mini-pets... and love me some Sally! Glad she was the first random recipe drop I got from cashing in the monster aethers! I also love that we give her a floating spere of water to survive in while she follows us! Aren't we nice?! 🙂 However, can we make the water cleaner and clearer for her and less murky? I am sure she would love to show off her beautiful slender body. Right now, she just looks like a steel ball that has wings and a snake popping out. 😄 I am sure Lusca mini-pet (maybe others too - I do not know) that would love to show off their bods in clearer water too? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudra Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Pretty sure Lusca doesn't actually have a generated body. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luminara Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 They should put Lusca in that "cement overshoes" bucket that the Family uses on Mooks, replace the concrete texture with a water texture and let it hop after you. 2 Get busy living... or get busy dying.

But the sphere of water doesn't even look like water - it looks like a steel/metal ball with a snakehead poking out. This doesn't even begin to look like what she is supposed to. This is the only mini-pet I wanted for any of toons, but this is just a disappointment because you can't see her. The water can be a little murky if you have to for "thematic" reasons - just not so opaque that we can't see her underneath. We all love Sally and want to celebrate HER - not a snake or worm head sticking out of a metal "apple." 😛 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me you write Sally slashfics without saying you write Sally slashfics XD (also, say that sentence 5 times fast) Jk, but yeah, there's no "body", the Sally we see in game is literally just the head and neck; the flippers were added to the mini pet because the devs thought it looked cute. Guess it was easier than rigging an entire body? Idk. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arriving in Loch Ness, she meets her long lost love and soulmate, Nessie...." ...

Guess it was easier than rigging an entire body? Idk. I would have swore I saw an outline of her body through the murk of the water. I just checked again and zoomed in really close - nope, I was wrong - it was an optical illusion (I guess that's a good thing?). I know the Sally in Croatoa is just the neck and head, but I thought the mini-pet at least had a body (like what i thought I saw). Oh well. If there is no body underneath like I thought, then making the water clearer to see her isn't just an ask for 1 thing and is more complicated than I thought.

(And when she died, which I don't think she can do any more, you can see her belly as she floats belly up.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See.... i THOUGHT she had a body and now reading you stating this, I am kind of remembering all of this from back on live ages ago too. I've only defeated her a couple times since Homecoming launched, but fully accept that i could be misremembering. However, just logged in and got lucky and found her!! I can confirm, when she dives, she does NOT currently show a body, flippers, or tail. This is all you see before she disappears - the bottom of her neck....

(Sorry I'm not tech-savvy enough to do a video.) Swim next to her. They stay in the water. The times when I've swum with Sally and someone came over and smacked her causing her to dive, I could briefly see flippers and tail as she dove. (Edit: Also, that lump you see in the bottom 2 pictures as she is diving? That is her body. Not her neck. You can tell from the 2nd picture because you can see where her neck attaches to her body as she starts her dive.)

Frozen Burn Posted March 25 Author Share Posted March 25 So, had my Sally pet out today and noticed when backdropped by a bright light source, you can see through the water.... So.... proof she DOES have a body to those that think she doesn't. And thus, back to my original request.... is it possible to use clear water instead of the murky water so we can see her in all her beautiful glory? 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The spot being shown seems to be the south island of the lake in Croatoa. Sally swims a figure eight (sort of) in that lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Rudra stated, this is in Croatoa, a hero-side zone. Sally swims all over the entire lake. It's a neat "Sleepy Hollow'ish" zone and the story arcs (lvl 23+) are quite magical.

I don't know. She may have been clipped into the ground for having swum through the land. Every time I witness her dive, she has flippers, tail, and body. And in @Frozen Burn's post 5 up, you can see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
