My first character was a Ranger...I've by far gotten bored with the lack of pets.

Probable ideas might include:

Mini Dragon
Differint Spiders
Bees? (3 Swarms were found in Presear)
Crocodile
Gorrila
Polar Bear
Wild Bull
Horned Elk
Goat

What are your comments, info, ideas?

Gaile confirmed again in latest chat log that there are many new pets. She has a list and is waiting for approval to release some of the pet types, and hinted it may be this coming week.

I would like to see a small drake, or maybe a scarab? Or a rockshot? Maybe an azure shadow? Something that was a monster that has somehow become a beast.

I'd like pets for all classes.. (that are secondary ranger of course)
I mean at least that they match their owner's primary.

My choices.

Mesmer : One of the floating eyes or Mergoyles
Warrior : Bull / Drakes
Ranger : Devourer / Worms
Elementalist: Imps of every element.
Necro: HellHound / Ghoul / scales
Monk: Smitting Seed / lil griphon / shadows

Yeah i know... but dreaming is free (at least for now)

What do you guys think? or what will you like?

thats a cool idea , but I thinkthe ranger should have the ability to still carry an additional pet.

Slug!

It would be neat if we could dye the pets too. Beastmastery would be so much fun with a horde of rainbow coloured pets.

Oh man I hope we get a little worm. You don't see it until it attacks. And it's only about 5-6 foot tall so when it attacks, it makes a little sqealing sound instead of a roar. Just to balance things out, when it burrows or unburrows, it knocks 1 enemy down, but when it hits, it's incredibly weak because let's face it, how hard can a 5 foot worm hit without a spine

....Lizard.....Dragon..... Dragons dont do that flicky tounge thing, i think a mini bone dragon smaller than the type like in Sanctum Cay. That would be awesome.

I remember one preview mentioning tigers in a description of the world's atmosphere... although it didn't outright say they were going to be a pet, I would not be surprised at all if a tiger was one of the new pets.

And considering how much turtles have been showing up lately (check out the ranger armor in the latest IGN preview), they're a strong possibility as well.

I'm gonna have to go with the pet rock. It's tough, it's versatile (can roll right through any terrain), and you never have to clean up after it.

I agree, i'd like to see, a falcon, hawk,eagle, and when they're not in flight they're on your shoulder. and when they come back from a kill, or after a battle you can give then a little rat meat to eat...<just had to throw that last part in>.

as far as the rabbit could be interesting, hell look what the rabbit did in monty python and the holy grail...damn..RUN AWAY, RUN AWAY..

I'm guessing they will have baby dragons or drakes, white tigers, bangle(sp) tigers, and maybe pandas. I say this becuase I think Anet wants to stay true to the Asain culture and wildlife to give it a true feel. I would be weird to have a gorilla in a place the looks like an old 1700's Japanese village 0_o

Birds would be a cool addition though that would mean more flying enemies which would make rangers a bit more useful then we are now far as combat wise. Were useful now in are own right but when a charr comes at as when were a level 7-10 at full charge and all we have is a bow...well you remeber my fellow Rangers. Just inmage how annoyed the warriors would be when thiers a enemy that they can hit...not a pretty sight. :P
