Vanity Mounts (poll)

Cazador

i like that you’re adding vanity mounts. I’ve bought them all just to have. Can you make them anyone can res. It’s kinda dumb I can’t pvp on my vanity mount without vet. More people would buy them.

Maximus_Neximus

I vote yes. But they have to be vanity and not be able to be trained/leveled up.

Aayla

They should be ethereal like.

this discussion has been had and been resolved, you can res vanity pets in trammel. You cannot res them in fel as this would make vvv horses obsolete and so less people would join vvv which would result in more people trolling by pvping with blues not in vvv.


that said, if vanity mounts adhered to current vvv mount rules (20 essence of courage charges) with a requirement to feed it essence of courage regularly. I would have nothing against it, but somehow i can’t see the players who have purchased vanity mounts for... vanity 
being okay with that.

I think you should be able to res vanity mounts without Vet... but only if the pet hasn't be "leveled up" with the pet revamp training process.

Also, vanity pets should be capped at 150 HP or less...   We don't want them to replace VvV mounts, Because the mounts in VvV and the Crimson Cincture are the only two reasons people are even in VvV to begin with.

If they were like an ethy mount where they didn't die and you could just have them poof into your pack like a veteran reward one I'd be really interested in some of them. But if I gotta feed it, res it, stable it and all that I'll just use the veteran reward types. I don't even mess with pack horses really. I buy one when I need it and let it go free when I'm done. But I don't let them go without an inappropriate name

Well that’s an easy solution. Must be in VvV to res your mount. Any mount. Unless it is trained or if you have over 50 Animal Taming

Mervyn

That’s not a solution at all. VvV mounts disappear after 8 battle readiness losses from time and/or death. If people could just use vanity pets, they would have no reason to battle for towns for points. Unless like I said if the vanity pets went poof after 8 days/deaths. 

There is already a system to res pets if you don’t want a vvv Mount. It’s called veterinary, you require 80 vet and 80 animal lore, feel free. 

I have NO opposition to vanity pets being ethereal.

Since when did anything and everything have to be ran through the "Does this hurt PvP or VvV committee" before even being considered ? The fact that VvV is so delicate that "less people will join because of A, B, or C" speaks volumes on it's own.

Cazador

First of all VvV participants should be orange in ANY facet to begin with.(True OrdervChaos) but I digress.

requirements to res mounts and only mounts
Must be a VvV participant
Animal Taming less than 50
mounts can NOT be trained or be over 2 slot
Add Faction bandages back for any non VvV mount (something to farm) 250 per 10

..next?

Mervyn

sounds good to me

Merus

Here is my thought:

All vanity mounts should be ressable with a bandage by anyone anywhere, so long as they have not been trained.

VvV mounts should also be ressable by bandage by anyone in VvV.  The benefit of the VvV mount should be it’s substantially higher resists and hit points which make it decidedly harder to kill in combat.  I would be in favor of buffing this up slightly if needed to maintain the desirability of the VvV mounts over the vanity mounts in PvP.

Mervyn

So you can still troll pvp by pvping on a non vvv blue and just get your vvv guild friend you’re helping to res your mount? I don’t think this would help anybody. 

Skett

Why not make all 1 slot pets be rez-able by anyone with 100 healing, 100 mage, 100 anatomy, or vet 
Honestly I don’t feel any skill should be necessary just have to be at any stable (be nice if the stable vet worked though) 

would it really kill pvp ? 

CovenantX

Maybe the statuettes should give you the option when used,  to be claimed as an Ethereal mount OR a physical pet.

I'd be more likely to use them if they were ethys, I'm not interested in using an actual pet unless it's going to be useful somehow...  but that's just me.
