Bat Lore Pets

[Snarky]

Yep.  Lore pets that are bats.  Or real ghosts.  Like the ones in auras or Dark armor.  Really, we need ANY Lore pets that Magic and/or Dark power users can look at and say "yes, that fits my theme"

 

Magic is one of 5 Origin types.  Looking at Lore Pets you would almost think it was not in the game.

 

If anyone suggests unicorns so help me I will....

I want corny old school ghosts that look like the classic guy under a sheet with eye holes but it's a little see-through. Bats are cool too, but I'd like to see more than 2 bats on screen. Make it a big ol swirling ball of bats and a big-arse bat buddy or something.

 

Also, a swarm of bat-sized flying unicorns!

+1 to Bat lore pets as well.  Please add Rikti Monkeys as well, along with Rikti Monkeys as a new MM pets too.

Long ago, I mentioned having a new pile of Lore options that don't tie us down to CoX lore 🙂 

 

I think the best option would be that you design the look of your pet much like you do your toon. OR you can use what's already there. OR the Devs can add new ones like bats, werewolf, mummy, vampires, other mechs, snake people and so on.

 

I also suggested a new pool option called The Partner pool where you can summon a partner/pet that you can design via the editor and pick which style of that partner will play (tankish, blasterish, and so on).

 

I don't know what direction this game is going but I haven't been super impressed with a lot of the adds that HC has made. The work and quality is good but it hasn't been for me. Maybe this Lore idea will happen

Bats would be good, yeah.

 

Speaking of magic origins, I want Fairy/Pixie lore pets, too.  They could even use the existing models from the Fairy pet prestige powers.

more magic option: delve into the halloween door monsters for undead pets of zombie & mummy for one side of the tree and ghost & vampire for the other.

 

nature pets: Devouring Earth, or maybe some beast pets using the models we have in the vanity pet & beast travel powers?

 

natural: I know we've got more soldier NPCs in the game than Arachnos, Council & 5th Column...... why not some more generic soldiers using the Spetznaz Commando models to give extra military support to merc MMs or any other military themed character?

 

unnatural:  Hydra, because why can we drop elemental storms or frosty orbs, clockworks or demons, rikti or robots, Arachnos or Longbow... but not big blobby loogie monsters?

to be clear, i am not asking for more powerful lore pets.  no.  you could take the weakest lore pets, reskin them as Dark Armor fear aura ghosts, or bats, make the damage lethal and/or dark and i would do dances around my coffin all night.

Agreed.  Speaking as someone who frequently takes Robotic Drones on certain characters for concept even though mechanically they are not great, I just want more concept-fitting options.

[gameboy1234]

I think we should get some of the newer Halloween monsters to be lore pets that you can summon.  The Ancient Vampire would be a great addition, he is so cool and suave.  Also toss some Witches in there please.  Making some sets that just duplicate existing powers but with a different skin would be great too.  More types of "Robots" that just do what other pet sets do would be keen, as Stormwalker mentions. 

 

Or you know lore pet customization.  Just let us pick which pets we want to appear, regardless of powers.

Yup. This was my intent as well with earlier comments.

 

I think the key is customization. It's still one of the best parts of this game. Have the ability to pick other Lore pets and maybe even completely customize the look. That would be ideal.

 

The next level awesome would be having the ability to have the option to design your pet/lore pet etc from scratch much like our toons in the costume creator. Have that costume creator (or as much as we can) for our Lore pets.
