2nd Birthday Ideas?
raven214
Saphatorael
Even more minipets for an anniversary doesn't seem interesting, what can you do with 2 pets on one character if you can only display one simultaneously (most people should have at least 1 pet per character by new, especially with all those pigs from Canthan New Year)
As for an emote, not a bad idea, doesn't have to be /rank'ish, even just some new /dance emote (next to the current /dance and /dancenew would be nice imo)
Or what about some re-usable fireworks? As in, (de-)activating it just like a mini-pet, for some mini-fireworks when walking around?

If you are going to make some new minipets, then I'd like to see:
Green:
Wurm (It could run beside you and go underground and pop up etc)
Gold:
Bladed Aaxte
Smite
Shiro'ken
Purple:
Mursaat
Flesh Golem (The mob at Ring of Fire - not the minion)
Margonite
White:
Minotaur
Grawl
Kraken
Juggernaut
Just some ideas I had. Pesonally, I quite like minipets, so I'd like to see it as the birthday present. However something else visual, ie. emote/divine aura type thing might be good.

Unique skinned Warrior Weapon and 100 ectos.
but if it has to be a mini, a mini seige wurm will rock.

How about a mini Crag or a mini word of madness. Also a mini-margonite or a mini-guild lord! Those things are huge so a mini would be the same size as us!!
And with all these mini's around how about a mini storage!! lol!!
To be honest though, the mini idea is kinda tired. I would like something more original. Something that can't be traded and shows how long you been playing. Something like a special skinned weapon based specifically on what kind of character you are. Or maybe a tattoo or emote or the glowing effect based on our profession like boss monsters have. That would be cool!! Any other ideas are welcome. It's just that with mini-pets, everyone can have one and it doesn't mean anything except that you have enough money to buy really rare ones.

Please no new miniatures. It seems like all the new prizes are just miniatures.
Especially if you can just trade/sell them. That's not very unique.
I would much rather have:
A weapon aura that you could turn on/off.
A Divine Halo you could turn on/off (The God's have smiled upon your devotion)
A Unique skin for your class' Weapons you can turn on/off
A new set of Blank /Birthday Weapons that you can spawn, mod & Inscribe.
Access to Unique armor (Yes, I realize how improbable this is.)
Just SOMETHING IMAGINATIVE Not minis.

The idea of minipets was hilariously cool when it began but with the recent "pretty much everyone gets a mini-pet" event, I think they've lost that special something and have become far less wanted.
Instead, following the idea of an aura for a character's second birthday, maybe it could be a special effect which could be class specific e.g.
Warrior: flaming footsteps
Monk: glowing blue halo when casting spells
Elementalist: multi-coloured lights coming out of your hands
Ranger: bees/ butterflies fly round your character
Mesmer: purple spirals around body
Necromancer: dark twisting thorns circle slowly around legs
The above are some basic ideas but something like that would be far more interesting than another set of minipets.

I'm a fan so far of the unique armor, special aura, unique title, and the monetary gift doesn't sound too bad either.
Edit: Oh yeah and NO MORE MINI PETS.

I really wouldnt mind new minis .. they are usefull as merhant stop marks in inventory
mini Wind Rider, mini Nightmare, mini Dolyak Rider (!), mini Vermin, mini Sandstorm Crag, mini Tusked Howler
If you really want something diffrent, give us disguises (as seen in some missions), many people would LOVE to have look of Mantle Knight for example. (this also give us one great thing: whole armor set skin in one inventory slot)
Disguises could include:
(rare) Stone Summit Dwarf (comming with "So ... tight!" and "This definitely ain't my size! etc talk windows (alike drunkyard speech)")
(green) White Mantle Knight, Shaddow Army Warrior.
(Purple) Kurzick priest, Luxon Warrior, Echantted armor
(Blue) Canthan Noble, Istani Noble, Vabbian Noble
(White) Corsair, Kournam soldier (completing mission in which you use them as part of story would give you one piece if you do masters (or hard more) ), Canthan Guard, Lionguard, Ascalon Vanguad...
Also, disguises would be really cool for people that actually roleplay (now you wold be able to get "mosters" do actually emotes and such stuff) or wanna create machinishima (priceless for that).
---
if that is not plausible, give 2 year olds divine aura and reset their death count...

I think the disguises idea is great. Someone started a thread along the same ideas over Sardelac as well. Year 1 was the year of the minipet. Year 2 can be various disguises that your character can "wear".
White: Canthan Peasant, Vabbian Noble, Ascalonian Guard, Luxon/Kurzick Merchant
Blue: Tengu, Naga Warrior, Corsair, Skeleton Ranger
Purple: White Mantle Knight, Stone Summit Dwarf
Gold: Mursaat

I like minis. I personally want more of them. I have a horse right now but it doesn't look enough like a pony. It's too scaley and looks kind of evil. So, I would love to have more of them so everyone can get one that suits them right.
Mini Izzy that does cartwheels is a good suggestion that I heard.
Giving us access to the mini panda would be great.
Mini bear would be cool.
Mini hyena that makes the same sound as the pet.
Most importantly, I would kill for a mini penguin.

I would like something that is NON TRADABLE like an age emote like rank, excecpt instead of an animal, its a man/woman with a walker. LOL But seriously, make something that you can't trade. That way its more unique and personal for the character that reaches the 2 year milestone.
MSecorsky
Gaile, this is just a thought, but is it conceivable to have, for example, a "Signet of Miniaturization"?
One use only, creates a miniature of targetted ally/enemy.
Or... how about miniatures of the creatures from Chapter 4?

New character emote?
Sir Skullcrasher
I think a cool emote for being 2 years old would be great. Kind of like /rank but use /age and it has you flash something cool on the screen. I don't know what animal or animation it should be but it would keep players from selling their 2nd birthday items.

I would rather not get a birthday present at all than get another stupid wortlhess minipet.
actually come to think of it, if it's going to be character specific only then i don't want it. i don't even play my original char anymore, lol.
but the whole aura thing and emote seems like a good idea.

How about a box that randomly gives you stuff? It'll say bday present on it and when you double click you get something random. Either a rare weapon, minipet, 50k gold (+/-), gems/ectos (3-5 at most). As long as it doesn't give garbage like lightbringer scrolls and elixirs as the coffer of whispers does. That's the worst reward ever for grinding to get those gems. I'm going for diversity here. Mini pets aren't really everyone's thing tbh.
What I don't want:
A birthday hat
Special dance

No more mini pets please, can't stand seeing them anymore.
You can get them anywhere, see them anywhere and they are not special anymore.
I'm so sick of seeing them EVERY where. It's time for something new and REALLY special.

- birthday dance;
- special emote.
but if it must be a miniature...
Whites:
miniature minotaur
miniature maguuma hunter
miniature gypsy ettin
miniature kurzick juggernaut
miniature blessed griffon
miniature mursaat
miniature heket
miniature ntouka
Purples:
miniature ice golem

I can live with minipets on second thought, my oldest character is only 4 months old and if it'd be something that wasn't tradable (let alone something like a permanent aura or burning footsteps) I'd feel pretty screwed. I wouldn't mind something that gives you a couple of thousand towards Drunkard / Sweet Tooth titles though, going for these soon 
Hatamoto
all i can say is no mini pets i freaking hate those things.
Anything else i would not mine.
An Emote would be cool

Please no more minipets.
My oldest character just turned 1 a few days ago.
I shrugged at my Charr Shaman, oh look... another Charr Shaman.
If I'd have gotten a Bone Dragon I'd still have shrugged.
Come up with something I can't buy, something that the old hands in my guild can flash about and make me jealous for. Something that I can stare at enviously, muttering just wait until I get it next year - by which time of course they will all have something else to gloat about being 3...
Just not another mini.

I think whatever we get you shouldnt be able to trade

Over a mini, I would prefer something LIKE the divine aura for 2 year characters. Maybe a glowing effect like boss monsters have or a haze like the poison effect.
Guild Wars lacks special effects atm when it comes to character looks... these rewards would be REALLY cool!
Other people have posted cool mini ideas if that is what you insist on though

How about a mini-pet trader so we can offload the ones we don't want easily. I have 6 characters that are going to get a 2 year present and another 2 that are coming up on their one-year presents. That's a lot of pets I have no idea what to do with.
At the very least, some mini-pet storage.

the signet of MINIATURISATION is a nice idea !!! maybe that and something else for 2nd year ?

CLOAKS!
But seriously listen me out. Clocks would be awesome, with the ability to wear them over armor. They could be full cloaks or more like a bigger cape like King Adelberns Cape that fully covers a persons shoulders and with some unique designs. They could be used as capes instead and the design could be put on the cloak. And for Variety Clocks could have different trimmings, Colors, Etc.

That chaos dye idea is really ace, I think something like that would go down really well in the GW community. No more Mini-pets please, for playing our characters for 2 years we want something that will do something new not just sit around for other players to oogle at.

Mini pet can be cool but we have alot of them already.
A thing what could be nice, is an item, like the minipet, but it make you taking the appareance of something.
Like the halloween tonic or the Yuletide Tonic. The difference is the birthday present could be use illimited.
It can transform people in... well, it can be like the minipet... in anything you decide to put in the game. I would see a players transformed in Naga controlling his mini Bone dragon.
Actually, if we get another minipet we wont be able to use both of them.
I think the possibility are illimited with this idea.

Disguises.
Permanent items that take up a slot like that of mini-pet,but gives us the ability to look like that of a monster.
That would be great.
