Possible future For Bigger Pet stables ??

Unread post by wildstormz »

I know alot of people been whining saying it big enough...

But for a big pet lover like me...I don't think its big enough seriously.

When More new pet arrives it just driving me crazy, I really hate letting some go that i been waiting like 3days-1week just to tame the beautiful pet... It just hurts all those hours we waste to tame..

I really hope they could bump it to another 10slots at least.. Then i be really happy!


I hope you guys will all agree with me...We are getting more and more pets getting harder to choose from!

Once hydras arrives one day.... I bet everyone will be wanting tame all sorts!

I disagree. I think 25 total pets is more then enough. It's true, I'd love to just go on a taming spree, but at the same time I'm likely never going to use a lot of those pets, so what's the point? Over 30 just seems to be overkill to me. =(

I think 30 might be nice to have a round, even number, but any more than that would seem...superfluous? I know it's a personal view of mine, but I feel like too many stable slots negates the individuality of the pets themselves. If we don't have to choose between them, there's less significance placed on our favourites. If that makes sense. Anyways, I myself would not want to see stable slots exceed 30 really, but that's my opinion.

In all honesty. Stable slots are probably just going to get bigger and bigger with time.

This.

I thought I had two completely filled and balanced stables between my max level hunters. I was wrong. When I *really* looked at my pets, I was able to find some I wasn't as close to and could release. We don't really NEED bigger stables; we just need to pick out what we're putting in them better.

There are plenty of pets that I would love to cuddle with. ;3 I'm worried they'll throw some wild party in my stable though...

i haven't even filled up to 25 yet, i have about 21 i think, and even so, i don't really use many of them. I guess if there was an increase then 30 is a good number. If anything I want them to alter the stable screen so all pet slots are veiwable on a single page. I don't like flicking pages.

Agreed with Kalliope. 25 is plenty for me as well.

You guys don't understand... :( anything :( ... What if blizzard adds special feature that can auto random your pet in each dungeon/raid you go to. And comes from your own pet stable slots and that would make you use all your favorite pets and has random button to call out for!

But again you guys must not have deep feeling in pets... I know blizzard will never stop adding it will never be enough.

If they added more stable slots past like 30 maybe they could make it buy-able from the Blizz store? That way people who want to have a lot of slots can and those of us who don't wont have to look at like 50000 empty slots.

Just because I don't have to have a slot for every skin, really? I have as much "deep feeling" over a pixel pet as is reasonable. :| I have no idea why I would want to "auto random" pets, either. They're frankly there to provide buffs to the group or raid that the other members can't provide. I may love my Madexx, I may love my birds, but more often than not they are not useful to a group. I understand plenty. Just not the same things you do, apparently.

Edit - Hunter pets are a resource drain. I don't see Blizzard using overkill space on one class when they're having enough trouble with space every class can use.

More stable space could very well be a possibility. We'll just have to wait and see what Blizzard's opinion is on the subject.

I am content with the 25 slots we have already. I enjoy the fact that we as hunters are not permitted to fill our stables with just any scaled, furry, feathered, and shelled creature that crosses our path. It allows the choices we do make to have much more significance and meaning as life-long companions. As hunters, we have to separate the idea between what we love and what we desire. There's always going to be newer and shinier pets. We just have to decide whether they're worth the cost it takes to tame them.

I can't put it any better than this. Except I am fairly certain that some of my attachments to certain pets are beyond reasonable. ;)

I will pull a fifteen hour camp, and you better believe that pet is never leaving my stable, no matter how many new shinies Blizzard throws my way. :p

Only pet I've ever had to camp 15 hours for was magria and ankha >.<

While I still say more stable slots per hunter would be nice it is far from needed. I do refuse to abandon any pet that has served with me as they all have their memories. That's why I'll just rehome the ones I'm not so attached to; to my baby hunters. Even though they themselves will probably have irreplaceable pets.

EDIT: Honestly I'd prefer more character slots. That way if you truly due need more then the hunter cap. You can level up another hunter if its not worth leveling up another hunter for 25 slots then it wasn't needed as much as you thought it was.

I still can't understand how you guys fill those slots up so fast!

Checking now, I have 9 'main' pets total. I have a few others scattered around that I tamed to replace ones I haven't bonded with(namely one of each devilsaur, a few cats). I think that adds up to maybe 19.

I'm picky when I come to pets, because it gives me grief when I can't love them all. I don't play pokemon trainer and collect them all(although there's nothing wrong with that). When I look at a rare, or a random mob out in the wild, I think "Will I use this guy/gal?" If the answer is yes, I tame them and see if I can establish a bond. If they bond, if they get a name, they stay. Otherwise, they sit in my stables for a few weeks and then I let them go.

It's kind of a double-edged sword, though. I have pets that I know I love and use often, but I have so few sometimes that I feel like I'm not really a 'hunter' - or at least what people seem to see a hunter as, a glorified pet collector. I feel like I'm 'wasting' the space that we begged for.

Maybe the time will come when I feel as if I need more slots. But when I can barely fill up a page with pets I use on a regular basis, I can't justify saying "we need more". Someone else said it best - I like that we have to choose. Maybe I'm being a little too choosy, but I enjoy the fact that we can't have everything.
