how will the bans effect the rare mini pets?
jsshah1
With all the bans going round for duped items, some of the people who traded for rare minis like the pandas and the like must have got their ac's banned with the mini in their storage. If they cant trade the minis back into the market, there must be even less around. this may be ok for mini malyx and to an extent the ghostly hero caus they drop from chests/coffers so they will still be around but the asian pets and others like the roller beetles might not get relased again so now there mite be only say 10 nagas or what ever instead of the 20-50 there was originally.. making them even harder to get for a normal ammount of gold... do you think its time they relased them into the eu/us markets as well?

yes. there shouldn't be a minipet nobody could ever get except for ebaying.

As to the question you asked,
I think the minipet prices will go up a bit. The price on rare minipets tended to go up now before GW:EN, and because there's even less rare minipets around now, I believe they will go up in price.

I personally don't know why mini-pets were duped... if I were to dupe something, It would be Ever-lasting beetle juice. I think its SOOO much cooler to roll around a district as a beetle... than say "lewk aht mai meni-pandha1!!1!"

Gaile has said that many more NEW minis will be introduced into GW as a result of the Competitions recently.

Some other people have posted about items on the banned accts, and they're just gone. It's not that practical to grab certain items off of accounts and hold an auction or just release them to people at random. Some people are only temporarily banned too, and there are still things that need to be sorted through with the banned accts.
Although I collect minis without directly buying them (trade between guildmates), it'd be nice to see a few more. It'd be even nicer to be able to get a mini through a quest of some sort :P. The value of it obviously wouldn't be high, but it'd be amusing.

Those ultra rare minis are rediculous to begin with. Imho every minipet and every in-game item should be obtainable by everyone. It may be hard to get (Like mallyx) but it should not be impossible. (Like the Asian minipet giveaways)
I hope ANet will never do it again.

For most casual players it's impossible. I'm PvE and no PvP person wants me with them so a ghostly here is impossible to get for me.
there excuse im a stupid PvE noob who doesn't know anything about the fine things about the game. (They think PvP is the thing)
And for those asian pets those prices how do need to get them iff you pay a ridicelous 2200 ecto for a panda or some other nice pet.
I've played 5/6 hours a day, almost every day since the beginning of GW never that i've seen so much ecto in my lifetime

And causal players don't need status symbol items.

Mini Pets are useless anyway, imho

A nice weapon skin has a use, a Minipet does not ...
(But u can sell them for some fast cash to those "Pokemans !! i want em all !! " fellas^^ )

do remember that they may unlock things in gw 2 if they give you a weapon in gw2 for every minipet that you add to your monument, then people will complain about not being able to get the rare pets..
axe
LOL
the only reason why people want them is because they are so rare that they hold a certain prestige. If everyone could have them, nobody would want them anymore. How many people want a mini-pig.
If these items werent so ULTRA rare NOBODY would care to have them, like it has been said already they are just mini-pets which have no purpose other than to collect.

You guys are missing a very important point here. These Rare Asian mini pets are only released in asia... Which means that those of us on NA and EU servers CAN'T get them unless you trade/buy them. These minipets will give something fairly awesome in GW2 i'm quite sure, but none of us will get those awesome things. On top of that.. They are only awarded to people for PvP related stuff (mini something for winning some pointless tournament). I do both PvP and PvE, mostly PvE though, and have yet to be rewarded, or heard of, some super rare minipet that is ONLY attainable in PvE, and only 10 of them exist in the game.
The point is. Spread the Love ANet or don't bother doing it at all.

If you think a mini pet worth 1750 ecto will suddenly become only a few hundred thousand gold then you are wrong.
You just have to look at the mini onis which number 560 and they cost 500 ecto now. That is a common mini pet (560 is not rare) and it costs that. So trippling the number of say Vizu (26 atm) will not make them accessible to everyone, far from it.
Im pretty sure the number of gold buyers have increased due to the introduction of rare mini pets.

In regards to the second part i couldnt agree more. ANet is partly to blame for the commercialization of guild wars by making some minis so rare and unattainable.
I hear alot of talk about lost rare minis on banned accounts. What about the duping of rare minis? There may be more rather than less ingame today!
