Requesting Pet Reset Tokens!
Alot of players think pet reset tokens are a good idea, it would reset pets, improve the market and old bad pets could be reset to new good pets. There is also the benefit of the amount of cash it would generate for Ultima.

It's probably cause the dev team uses the word can't a lot in place of they don't want to.
A. Posters come complain they had a better pet and want a refund. They did not read the warning.
2. They do not want us to reroll pets 100 times to get a better one. We can tame them for that.
3. Unknown what this would do to a Bane or PP nightmare. They could end up at 4 and 3 slots when rerolled. (When Kyronix made the Wildfire Ostards to copy a Bane, they were 4 slot, the game mechanics would not let him exceed the caps. So he reduced their HP significantly to make them 3 slots.)
4. They don't want players to roll their blaze cus until they get a max stat one they can sell for 10 plats.
No conspiracies. Just reasons yall refuse to accept.
So what you are saying is they can do it? but they won't? hmm weird.
Pet reroll is a popular idea, but I listed some complications, they do not want in the game, there are probably 10 more issues that it would cause that players would come up with.
Another revelation, Working as intended, means works fine for now, maybe someday we will look at it.
But at this moment, that's how it works. So deal with it.
Yep, how would it handle pets that have had multiple generations? For example, WWs have had 4 generations, with Gen 1s being able to have up to 825 STR. I've seen a 807 STR Gen 1 WW that was still 3 slots, and all the later generations were capped at 760 STR, with Gen 4 WWs being 4 slots at higher STR values.
Well, this is can be changed, if the decision was to be made in this regards, can't it ?
Perhaps not for the existing pets, but for all pets that can be tamed from the change onwards, it could be made that, upon taming them, their stats could be saved so that, on these "new" pets, a reset token could be used, if needed...
What would be needed is then a way to tell apart the "old" pets on which the reset token could not be used, because their original stats are no longer known, from those "new" pets for which, instead, upon taming them, their original stats get saved and on which such a reset token could then be used... and this could be done adding a new feature, perhaps, to the Animal Lore skill... loring a pet could tell whether a reset token on it would or not work to reset the pet to its original stats.
What I am trying to say is, that "if" there was to be this need, and the Developers wanted to make this possible, I am of the opinion that it could be done... not for the older pets, perhaps, but possibly for the new pets which UO player were to tame from the change onwards...
And no, players want scrolls back also.
May as well make sword and armor re roll tokens if you don't get scrolls back.
Of course they could make a token to re roll a pet. They do not want to. There are many things they do not choose to do.
Liike I said, they chose not to do it.
