Been thinking about this as I considered how to prune my stable, and with the changes coming to how rares show up, how we tame them, and what I imagine will be used for the coming Spirit Beasts... it feels like the golden age of rare pets is past us, at least from a rare hunter's point of view. Now the new pets are great, and I'm glad we have them, and I like the new "hunting" mechanic, but it just feels like a bit of something has passed us by. Perhaps it's because there are so many (especially the basilisks 0.o) and perhaps it's because the new rares are protected from other players, but a bit of the thrill is gone. Might also be because there have been just so many that you just can't get excited about new Spirit Beasts in the same way now.
Again, I'm not complaining about what we have coming in the next two patches (Tues and the 25th), and I certainly appreciate Noah's work.
But I do feel that perhaps we've passed an era where things just quite aren't the same anymore.
I do however, intend to track down Portent until I get the color I like...
