      At this point I almost feel like it would be ruining a core traditional piece of ESO. I would be as upset as I was about the animation changes in U35. Some things should remain intact.
      My #1 wish for ESO Today: Decouple achievements from character progress and tracking.

      I just think we should be able to get different summons. A few different choices so it’s not all the same. As a common courtesy in towns I dismiss my pets and only use them in combat situations or when questing alone.

      Edit : doh I meant to pick the opposite in this poll disregard my answer for the other

      Can't stand the sorc pets. They should allow us to hide all pets that are not our own.

      I often find myself moving to a different spot or shifting the camera in town because a sorc's flappy bird got right into my field of vision while I was browsing my inventory or something. It is rather annoying and it happens at least once a day.

      They could fix it by making it smaller and increasing the distance at which it follows the player.

      Maybe not a perfect solution for everyone, but it would help a lot if Twilights would land when person is standing still (outside combat). No annoying flapping in your face indoors.
      Might need a few minor tweaks, sure, but shouldn't break any game rules, mechanics or immersion.

      Many times I have thought about complaining about the players twilight's wings flapping getting in my vision only to realize half the time on my Sorc at least its my twilight's wings flapping and getting in my vision.

      Let us change the appearance, something like having an option in collections to slot one of are flying non combat pets to show up instead, same sort of system as changing the wardens bear skin to the stone version.

      Aside from an option to fix the visual annoyances, we need an additional option to disable the "ambient" noises of all pets.

      I always disable them when in cities / not in combat situations. It’s the first thing I do when I leave from combat areas / overland

      That's exactly what I do as well. If I'm in a crowded area, pet is dismissed (on PS4/PS5, it's in the character menu, scroll down and hit square on the summons icons). Only takes a couple seconds, but saves a ton of aggravation from others, as well as myself.

      Maybe make it, so the bird pet would be operating from inside of a personal player instance, staying unvisible for other players.
      Similar to when we keep opening chests or harvesting via treasure maps, only we- the map owners, see the digging with shovel or abundance of plants.

      Irrai is a Winged Twilight who is found in Vastarie's Tower in Grahtwood.

      AND is quite a nice model size - so ZOS have a design ready to go, as it were.

      The Twilight, AKA Flappy Bird, is the most annoying thing in the game except for bugs that stop a trifecta run...

      First off, it's HUGE, it's constantly getting in the way of everything. I go to hit X on something and I jump up and down like an idiot several times in a row because my Twilight is mating with that object.

      Next, FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP...omg...

      Next, it dies all the time in PvP. Aoe ( stuff on the ground ) kills the Twilight that's in the air really fast. Makes sense...

      Next, it won't stop attacking. I can recall it ( mostly happens in PvP ) and it immediately says "nope, I'm Angry Bird now...me no stop attacking!"

      Next, it won't go stealth. Again, in PvP, I use an invisibility potion, but it doesn't work on the Twilight. To make it even more messed up, it won't stop attacking people. They can find exactly where you are because the Twilight is saying " hey everyone, this jerk who summoned me is over here, come kill him...teehee."

      Also, High Kinlord Rilis ( the boss from Banashed Cells ) wanted me to mention that the Twilight "Hums off-key."

      There's more, but I digress.

      I think the birds should be much smaller. The animations are fine but they are so big that they block my view at times in combat. Plus they get in the way of others in the group.
