Should eso get more variety for warden pets

wilykcat

The current pet is a bear and there is no pet control bar. There needs to be pet control bar that has pet abilities such as taunt, remain passive, guard, normal, heal pet, revive pet, tame pet, dismiss pet, rename pet, ultimate, role select, pet's skill line, and information display.

Besides a bear we wardens should be able to tame other creatures like foxes, dreadra, senche raht, wolves, spriggan, and many others.

World of warcraft and guild wars 2 have pet controls and combat bars. Eso should get one too.

LunaFlora

Definitely yes

sure would be nice.
and i would love to summon more combat pets with my wardens. though there'd have to be a whole extra skill line for that.

is dreadra daedra? if so that doesn't really make sense as Wardens worship Y'ffre, not a daedric prince.

and what are pet controls and combat bars in guild wars 2?

Nah. I like bears

What I want is more skin options for the bear. The system is already in place, adding a grey option to the standard brown. I'd love to see more options available for bear colors that are already available in the game on wild bears - honey blonde and white especially. No need to create new skins since they are already in the game and seems like a nice profit for the crown store. What's not to like?

Yes please

Yes, please. I don’t like bears so I don’t care how many colors ZOS might make available. A bear does not fit at all with the Morrowind theme of the class either. It should be a kagouti or nix ox. Ideally, there should be different cosmetic sets of pets for different regions selectable by the player.

Soarora

Maybe?

I like gw2's system and it'd make warden more distinct but at the same time I'm not too sure about it. You can already direct your bear and tell it to stop fighting and I think more commands on top of that could get overwhelming. What I would really like actually is something like gw2's advanced classes system.

Sounds like you want to make really big changes to the pet system. Not all people like big changes.

I would like to be able to reskin it, but nothing more.

This, most of the statement for the poll, has nothing to do with the poll. The poll is not about a pet control bar.

BTW, there are commands for the pets which include calling them back. The default seems to be to hold "Y" and then press the left mouse button to attack or hold "Y" and press the right mouse button to call back. That pretty much takes care of commanding the pet.

But again, this thread is not about commanding pets.

I think it should be a Kwama Warrior and not a bear, that way it fits with the other creatures in the Animal line since they are all themed off of creatures from Vvardenfel. But that would upset many a Norn lover I feel, so we can't have that~

Yes please

Yes. I’ve long campaigned for removing the Morrowind specificity from warden visuals. I understand the tie in to the chapter back when the new class was a big selling point for the Expansion sales model, but it’s long past time to move on. Plenty of people would have an interest in nature magic on characters what would never even have seen a shalk, or cliff racer, or netch.

Since early beta, NPCs have accomplished the same with totems, and launching crows at people, and summoning wolves in addition to bears, and other alternate visuals which could be applied to Warden skills. Let’s get rid of the inherent class connection to a zone.

i agree and i think animals from regions where people actually worship Y'ffre like valenwood, summerset, and high rock would be much better.
like thunderbugs instead of shalks and crows could replace cliff racer.

optional would probably be best, but the morrowind fauna is weird for wardens

This, and I want it for Sorc pets too. We have a bunch of different Scamp skins, at least one other Clannfear skin and the Verminous Fabricant seems to use most of the same assets as the Clannfear too.

AzuraFan

Definitely yes

Yes to more pets. But while a pet bar would be great, I'd be fine with what we have now, but with more pets to choose from (each one could have a different type of basic attack effect).

ESO_Nightingale

Yes please

We have had a lot of these types of posts in the past and as far as i know, we've had no official responses regarding them unfortunately. Hell, I'd literally pay money on the crown store for more.

Artim_X

Reskins and audio for different animals yes. Everything else is asking a bit much for a single ability.

Braffin

Definitely yes

As long they aren't getting flapping abominations, which make people sick, more variety is welcome.

phaneub17_ESO

Nah. I like bears

My bear should wear a hat and tell me about forest fires.

DrNukenstein

Yes please

I'd try warden out if they replaced one of the bird morphs with a wolf as a melee spammable.

Like D-Swing, but the cast animation is a wolf mauling your target. That would be pretty cool and in character for the class.

Skullstachio

Definitely yes

There should definitely be a pet control bar, but at the same time, it could be its own weapon skill line with something like a conjurer/summoners stave, complete with a few abilities that can be used alongside your other skills that affect your own class based summons alongside the summonable pets in the independent summoner weapon skill line.

There is a good opportunity here.

SandandStars

Definitely yes

Maybe Warden gets a Cliff Racer pet, which when equipped, makes Screaming Cliff Racer move 6 times faster, making it a PvP spammable that could actually be used!
