Pets are in dire need of a cosmetic rework.

Starlight_Knight · February 2019

Sorc pets look awful - big flapping about headach inducing chickens.
Warden bear is boring. grey or brown. wow!

There are models in the game already of harpies that can sit still when not moving, and different colour bears...
I know people want all kinds of crazy weird pets like kung fu donkeys and space turkeys instead of bears and big flappy things but just some different colours will be fine.

With the Morrowind added "special" tab in our collections i really didn't expect this to be the home for that one singular Slate-Grey pet skin for what has now been over a year.

Please can we have some cosmetic improvements to pets. Thankyou.

Give them skins
Make them transparent and un-targetable for friendly players.

The old horses are in dire need of rework.

I agree. I think it's time for this. I would also add that bound armor needs a rework too. I'm glad they changed it from what it used to be (despite it being awesome for either morph) because it made everyone look the same, and I know it doesn't need to be activated anymore, but I feel it needs some kind of effect even if it is just slotted. Maybe some ethereal purple effect that lightly fades in and out periodically.

Not only that, older motifs and areas also need a polishing up.

Cosmetics are the least of their problems...

EphemeraCrawford · February 2019

But they seem to spend a bunch of time on cosmetics because $. They could at least make something so requested available, even for purchase.

Dramatic downscaling to make dear flappie wings a pocket/pixie healer would be lovely.

Yes. Need a wolf Wild Guardian. For reasons.

Exactly. For ZOS, endgame is playing house and dress up. They don't seem to care about bugs and performance anymore.

I had the same thought when I recently got a close up of my imp. The quality isn't great. But the flappy one looks ok I think for what it is. Some half naked flying demonic woman following me around isn't really my cup of tea though.

Personally I think what they need is perma elemental atronachs.

In the single player games I never used the daedric summoneds and there's no sorc like daedric magic except for bound weapons, which ESO doesn't have. So sorc is a big fail on evoking familiarity with the single player games.

Ele atronachs would make sorcs significantly more appealing.

Not boring. With glowing eyes or a nice big glowing rune on it. Prefer the eyes myself.

Love my bear. LOVE!!!

Was grey an odd choice for a "premium" skin - a colour which most people associate with age and uselessness? Yes. Yes it was. Add it to the pile of very odd choices made for this game.

Clearly they had plans to offer more skins but the "premium" geriatric bear wasn't popular. I almost never use it myself and almost never see it on anyone else's bear. When something fails that hard, it's common for a developer to put on the breaks and re-evaluate.

The extra tab hasn't been removed though they're probably still considering offering others.

flappy bird induces migraines. I would love to use it, but refuse; regardless of third person camera distance, the damn bird is always flapping in the way of everything. Add a few in trial/dungeon scenario, and sometimes i just leave.

I dont care how zos change it e.g crown purchase or some achievement. Please, oh, please reskin this awful bird.

Kelanthras · February 2019

Yes! Pretty please! Especially the sorcerer pets need a revamp. The only reason I don't use them is because of how they look.

Put them in the store, even with the crates, different skins for different season motifs. @ZOS_GinaBruno please!

I prefer the old ones to the new. The new ones look like anorexic show-ponies that would collapse after an hour of running. Then there's the auroran knight one that looks like it has a severe case of everywhere-edema.

Sorc pets are a disgusting eyesore that should be reworked completely. At absolute bare minimum, the flappy flaps should at least STOP AND LAND. Why are they constantly flapping!??!!?!

Kagukan · February 2019

Skins and/or polymorphs for sorc pets would be great. I am all for it.

Odovacar · February 2019

Or at least let them take on the skin your character has equipped to make them look a little better...they're so super ugly.

They do look dated but you can replace them, you don't have to use an old horse or an old motif.
