Raining Cats and Dogs: More Transformation Options


Recommended Posts

So we're seeing a lot of new additions to the Prismatic Aether costume rewards, and I wondered to myself what other possibilities could this new cosmetic system be used for? Perhaps we could expand the amount of 'Animal Travel' forms we have access to!

Right now we have the 'Coyote Travel Power' and 'Panther Travel Power', but there are so many models that actually use the same animation rig as many other quadrapedal models in-game. So, what I'd love to see is maybe the addition of new forms available in the Aether vendor that fall into the category of 'Canine Travel Powers' and 'Feline Travel Powers'

For Canine Travel, we could have access to the 'German Shepherd', 'Wolf', 'Dire Wolf' and 'Black Wolf' models;

For Feline Travel, we could have access to the 'Lioness', Lion', 'Liger' and 'Spirit Panther' models:

I don't imagine these having a significant cost as they aren't able to be used in combat, but should still have the same travel capability as the Coyote/Panther powers, so a standard 10 Aether should suffice.

I could potentially see the selection being expanded in future, if new model textures are made, perhaps even smaller animals such as dogs, cats and foxes! But for now, I think the eight additions above would be a great starting point for more options.

If they are travel powers, I'd think they should be sold for inf at the START vendor instead of for Prismatics

 

I'm open to any form of implementation, really.

I only settled on the Aether system because they're mostly a cosmetic feature.

There are also two other animal models found in game; the 'Shadow Hound' and 'Wodan'

They seem to behave a little different to the Canine/Feline rigs as mentioned in the first post, so I'm not sure if they have a complete set of animations (they always seem to be in 'combat pose' for example). They could be added to the list of options, maybe as a higher tier reward?

More like falling, with style.

 Were that to ever happen, you just know there's going to be an owl form and a cat form hanging together as an "owl and the pussycat" joke.
