Pretty cool, but I still prefer the GW system.

It gives those who've been playing for a long time some kind of reward, but it's always something to look forward to, even if you're a new player. Plus, the gifts are randomised. Everyone getting the same thing makes it slightly less special, especially when everyone gets it at the same time.

I want a "mini-me", a mini that is a smaller copy of you, that actually changes armor to match you.

As much as I would like a mini-me just as most others would, assuming everyone had one the amount of addition processing power that the game would require would be catastrophic. Because at that point, not only would the game have to render each and every player, but it then has to do this twice, on top of running the coding required to determine which armor you are wearing a second time, on top of having to continuously check. When you change your armor, it only has to check once. Having a min that looks identical to you and changes armor would be a static variable that would have to change each and every second, thus requiring consistent checks.

I personally think it is a great idea, but I don't think it would turn out for the better in the end.

And, I think a Shiro'ken Construct would be a good idea for a mini, with a changing aura to represent each of the professions.

Yeah, I'm shocked there isn't an afflicted mini considering the volume of them you face in the Factions campaign. I also think a Tengu would be cool, especially when running to follow you.

I think it was a mini polar bear, and it was only that cause they could call it the Baby Blizzard Bear, and it was only for people who logged on that day.

A mini Livia would not display her most prominent features in the way she does. Just not big enough.

I would like a Mini Flesh Golem, size roughly that of the Destroyer of Flesh. But hey, I guess the matter is already settled. Let's see what we get.

Maybe someone already found the new minipets in the GW.DAT???

Or maybe, we could just, perhaps, once, get a present which isn't a mini?

Just an offer.

Good point on my observation fail.

Luckily, I had forgotten Charr Effigy, which is insanely cool. So:

Green: Doppelganger
Gold: Talon Silverwing, Siege Wurm
Purple: Smite Crawler, Flesh Golem, Charr Effigy
White: Nian, Olias, Margonite, Avatar of Grenth, Stone Rain, Master of Whispers, (Fenrir or Rekoff Broodmother), Spectral Vaettir

Please don't make the green a human/humanoid, I find those the most annoying. I would really like to have a dragon i.e. Mini Glint or even Mini Ancient Dragon
