Maguuma is a tropical jungle, but there's hardly anything tameable there. How about pet monkeys? Baboons or chimps or something...

Just a thought!

There should be more variation in the kind of pets in the game, like a flying giant insect or some 2-legged pets

Hmm, maybe a gorilla would be a nice pet to have, it would kind of look like a bear. Then for the maguuma area also add in a black panther or a leopard, just a variation of the lynx skin. Maybe adding Cobras into the desert would be nice also...

I think the pets fit the lore of the game. I couldnt really see a monkey or a chimp in this type of game lol. Flying insects sounds like something from the Impossibe Creatures game.

Maybe the current pets fit the lore of the game but there aren't many animals to tame, they should add a different kind of pet not a variation on the ones that are already in the game

I for one would like a tameable Pikachu. HOO-HAH!
Pikachu I choose you!

I'd like a flying animal though. Or a mount .

My warthog is fine.

Good Idea, I'd love to be able to tame a gorila, and grow it into a huge hearty and call it "Kong"!

Like a pet Yak or horse would be nice... get the horse in Kryta... in different colors... have bays, chesnuts, blacks, and greys, but it would probably take a lot of programming to get that. OR you can choose their color when you tame it.

I said gorilla because it fits in with the sizes we have now. Horses and yaks are bending the rules there. I think you need to be reasonable when you put up your suggestions.

I wolud like to see a grizzly bear which would be a variation of the black bear skin. Also a turtle, where you can get outside Lion's Arch, or any area that's near the water.

An remember the Old Mac quest, where you had to get food of Joe? Why not be able to tame a devouer? That to you would be cool, an it fits the game.

What animals shoot at range? All pets seem to be real world animals (with the exception of the unnatural size of both Dune Lizards and Spiders, and the simply weird Moa Birds)

I'd still be very happy with a siege wurm pet of some variety. ;p

For a smaller pet, though.. hmm.. jungle..

Some kind of large snake? A python, say? Not -quite- a wurm, but..

And moa birds are pretty clearly just a variation on an ostritch or emu, and have you seen how big komodo dragons get? Pretty good-sized..

The monkey sounds like a good idea, but he can only throw so much crap at one time....

I want some sort of Hawk or Eagle or something. While it's not attacking, it can sit on your shoulder, and fly off when you start to attack. It can hover around, and zoom in and peck as it's attack. Com'n, that's hot, huh? ^_^

Hmm "Animals " already in Tyria, that would make great pets ? *dream sequence begins..... Devourers(Hey Old Mac's got one) , Spiders(Tree, Needle etc) , Dryders , Skales(Why not, they aren't "intelligent" creatures),Imps(Fire, Ice etc) and finally for Balthazars Sake !!! MINOTAURS !!!!

And by all means a Ranger Menagerie(kennel/pet storage) so we can have more than one pet(Good idea for a gold sink, Make it a one time fee of $500g to initially store each pet & make it cost $100g to switch pets.) I don't want to give up my Lvl 20 Melandru's Stalker just so I can try out another pet. Mayhaps, allow/limit Rangers to a maximum of 5 pets in the kennel and one with them(Total of 6 pets, can only have 1 out of kennel/with them at a time.{Although I'd love to have 2 out,but that brings up balance issues etc.})

Ok steppin off my crate.

i think a type of gorrila would fit, and ya id like some kind of a ranged pet and a pet that flys (just hovers but would still look cool), also more pet dmg types and mroe variation between pets so its not just cosmetics, like lets say.

Warthogs: ?% to dodge attacks (cause hes small)
Bears: more hp and armor
Dune Lizards: Ranged attack, 10% chance (or lower) to inflict bleeding
Spiders: Ranged attack, 10% (or lower) to inflict poison
Moabirds: attack faster
Wolf: Higher Attack Damage

or something around that, just a thought

Hmm... Gorilla would be nice. But why make it look like a bear? They already have bears. If they add a gorilla I think it should look like a gorilla...

If it looks like a bear and growls like a bear it must be a gorilla :/

Why yes. We spoke of giving pets unique skills. Monkeys could poison and blind by throwing feces. Damn, that was good thread.
