who would like to have other animals for the Warden than just a bear?

AleriSadasIndoril

There are so many awesome pets in ESO, ZOS would only have to make them accessible, I would also buy them in the shop.
(My personal opinion)

What is your opinion?

Ragnork

yes

My argonian would like a fire breathing salamander... Or an ice one. Could be linked into the destruction staff passive.

Elrond87

yes

and ice balls for a spammable so i can be sub zero ha

Blutengel

yes

Love my warden, but I don't use the bear at all. I wish they would let us pick any animal already in the game.

TumlinTheJolly

yes

Also, sorc pets need skins!

Altaire

yes

Killer Wabbit...

Mr_Stach

yes

So WoW has glyphs that cosmetically change abilities. I think this system would be great in ESO. Imagine if Cliff Racers could be a Hawk instead. Or Shalks be something like this:

GoldenGirl

yes

YES, YES, A HUNDRED TIMES YES!

I feel like different races would have different guardians... an Argonian or a Khajiit with a bear just doesn't look right. (I'm not sure.. do all zones have native bears?)

I stopped playing my warden because I just don't like that bear. Give me a wolf or a tiger.. I would even spend some of the crowns I've been hoarding for it!

Nord_Raseri

I would like to have other animals than the morrowind creatures(floating squid, beatles, pterodactyl)

Mr_Stach

yes

So Lore-Wise it would make sense for the Animals to be more Grahtwood/Glenumbra/Western Skyrim centric per Warden Lore. But Wardens Released with Morrowind so we got Morrowind Animals. Except Bear. Bears don't really show up in Morrowind.

Danikat

yes

I'd love to be able to change the bear to something else. I'm fine with the just being a skin, I don't want the abilities to change or anything like that, just how it looks. When the grey bear was released with the Morrowind special edition I assumed it was the first of several options and I was looking forward to seeing what else we got, then it never happened.

For me a wolf would be ideal, because my warden is breton and the backstory I made up for her is that she trained with the Wyresses, who (if they summon anything) summon grey wolves.

I'd also love to change the sorcerer pets, and there my priority is anything which doesn't flap constantly.

SydneyGrey

yes

Everyone wants an alternative to the bear.
My vote is for a wolf. It'd be great if I could summon a wolf instead of a bear.

Mr_Stach

yes

Frost Atronach..... just sayin.

SydneyGrey

yes

There's an old Elder Scrolls DLC that has bears and werebears in Morrowind. I forget which one it was, though. My memory is hazy about it, but I remember fighting werebears there.

Bloodmoon DLC, where you travel to Solstheim, which is Skyrim Adjacent

Lugaldu

yes

It would be nice if you could go into the wild and tame an animal that you like best.

yes

Exactly this for Warden.. I wanted more of a Wyress feel also.

And a different sorc pet would definitely be nice... either a new (not obnoxious) summon OR create a skill line specifically as a non-pet sorc - unable to summon, but skills and passives adjusted to offset the existing performance loss for non-pet users.

Thank you. Perhaps it was more of a Nord island than a Dark Elf island. My memory isn't quite perfect.

Mr_Stach

yes

Well it's right in between Eastern Skyrim and Vvardenfell, so bit of a mix there

Where is the option for fewer combat pets?

I'd like to see fewer pets or no pets for any class, not if they are for combat. Cosmetic pets are great, but navigating around everyone's pets is a pain when in town and it turns one player into multiple players in a combat situation.

So my vote would be no pets at all for any class.

Not going to vote, because I would like it be relevant to all the Warden animal skills, not just the bear. I actually like the bear (as the skin, but his behavior bothers me quite often though).
I'd like all the Warden's animal skills to be customizable or at least changed to something static but meaningful for the continental Tamriel. The Morrowind theme of them is a huge mistake not just because they don't correlate with the bear (or the bear doesn't correlate with them), but rather the whole set of them feels completely out of place because we got the lore book about Wardens as Y'ffre/Green Pact/Valenwood related people, but somehow they cast Morrowind's exclusive animals???
Clearly, just a shallow half thought decision from someone who doesn't care about "those silly roleplayers with their silly immersion and lore consistency".
What about playing a druid/shaman from the Reach? Or a Breton from Wyresses? Or the actual Bosmer spinner about whom the Warden's lore book has been written? There're a lot of possibilities to play Warden's but they're all ruined by the weird Morrowind animals decision made by some PR manager.

Hurbster

yes

Or do what FF14 does and have the ability to adjust the pet sizes you see, although I suspect FF14 has a bit more client-side than ESO.

karthrag_inak

yes

Senche-cat instead of warden bear
Soul-shriven Dagi instead of sorc imp/clannfear
Soul-shriven Winged flying Alfiq instead of Winged Twilight

Mr_Stach

yes

I did a big Lore Post on Warden, check it out if you want, but Zos explained it away very Lazily:

"Wardens, however, appear all over Tamriel, with the most recent reports placing some on the island of Vvardenfell"

DreamyLu

no

Based on my experience since I play the game, I like animals, but I never ever use any of the pets I have, not even as "deco" at my home. So, in theory, I have nothing against it, however, in the fact, I will neither buy any in shop nor invest efforts in game to earn more, what is equivalent to voting "no". Sorry if I'm not really clear here!

Yeah, I've read your post a couple of days ago. Good one and might be very helpful to build up some lore for a Warden character that is not a Dunmer. One of the insightfuls is from me, by the way.

Mr_Stach

yes

Thanks! I appreciate it 🙏

drzycki_ESO

yes

A butterfly or a bird to replace that godawful squid

TwinLamps

yes

My lizard warden would like to have Saxhleel Behemoth instead of bear.

Mr_Stach

yes

My wife thinks the Baby Netch is cute

EozZoe1989

yes

if anything.. they need to expand on combat pets and added them to companions.
