Pet injections?

What would people think of the idea of pet injections that would drop around the world or could be purchased from the crown store?

The injections would just offer a small boost.

These boosts could be:

Magicka +100
Stamina + 100
Health + 100
Weapon Damage +100
Spell Damage + 100
Physical and Spell Resistance + 50
Stamina Recovery + 100
Magicka Recovery + 100
Health Recovery + 100
Tri Recovery + 50

Well you get the idea, basically you would use your injections on your non combat pets, and whilst they are summoned out your stats would gain the small boost from the injection.

They would drop in all zones, so the crown store is not necessary, the only advantage to the crown store would be it would save you farming them.

You could also make them tradable so it's another way to get the pet injection you want faster.

You can change your pets injection at anytime by using a blessing stone that would also drop around the would and be tradable.

If you have more than one pet (most people do) you could use different injections on each one and use the pet for the best situation required at the time.

Of course these would only be usable outside of PVP due to being unable to summon pets in PVP zones.

Anyway I could go on and on but I feel I've said enough to explain.

What do people think?

Please leave your feedback below. ☺️

    No it would essentially make them mandatory <+100 weapon/spell dmg> to raiding and you would have to render X8 pets + X4 regen pets all running around.

    Pets should just be Roleplay pets. They are fine, they don't need to be stat sticks too.

    Are pets not already out in trials? I don't really do trials so I wouldn't know.

    Not really, raid addons even go as far as having the option to auto-dismiss them. The only pets out are Sorc/Warden pets <And other skill based/proc based ones> would appear. Not too many non combat.

    I think it's a bad idea. Just as bad as the trial activity finder. This one because it would basically be a pay to win and probably also impact the trial fps, which is already low on consoles, and the other one because there already are potatoes in pug dungeons. Imagine how bad the situation be in trials 👎

    nope. pets should be cosmetic only. there's already too many people with noncombat pets, combat pets, and assistants constantly out.

    Guys where on earth are you getting Pay To Win.

    There would be no advantages over the injections, everyone has pets, you could even make it when you find your first injection you unlock an achievement which unlocks a cute mouse pet.

    What is wrong with having pet's out? They are adorable and part of the game.

    "The injections would just offer a small boost."

    Gaining any advantage with real money, regardelss are those are stat buffs or gear, over those playing who might otherwise need to spend time progressing in order to unlock said items or even more, are behind a paywall or unable to get them by playing the game is conisdered pay to win, period.

    "They would drop in all zones, so the crown store is not necessary,"

    The thing with the drops is not excusing you at all.
    Gaining any advantage with real money at a faster rate is pay to win. Period.

    Then just have them drop in game only if you feel that strongly, going by what you are saying then vampire bite and werewolf bite is also pay to win as they are also on the store.

    I couldn't care less if they where on or off the store id be happy for them to just drop in game.

    As I will never support any kind of pay to win.

    Yes they are. YES they are. Same as Experience, research, and Fortifying meals.

    I think your definition of pay to win is very different to most.

    I would never consider ESO as pay to win.

    The water for non combat pets having a bonus was already tested. Right now ZOS is doing the math to see if it is profitable to add more.

    No, pets are an abomination. These changes are nonsensical, sorry. If it's an account-wide buff like the pig pet that gives +5 inventory space, then OK, that's something I can dig. However, it should be unlock-able in-game.
    The Bristleneck War Boar's buff should be obtainable in-game imo. Maybe make a new item to give to a pet, like an Aetheric Apple (Aetherial Dust + Apple), for example.

    Note: That item does not exist, just a made up example.
    Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 25 DLCs. 41 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game.

    I'd be open to it. Not gonna lie I'm that guy who refuses to put away his pet during raids. I spent a lot of money on crown crates collecting Netches. You will NOT separate me from them.

    Sounds like more calculations to slow the server down, no thanks.

    And how is it pay to win? Plenty of in game pets to be had. Go farm Nchulefwhatever and get a robot pet, or buy the pieces for a few k.

    Pets are fine as cosmetics, its kind of asking for another enchantment slot. I get that it would give some more meaning to the pets, but I feel like I'd end up running something for the stats and not the looks. That goes back to them being more fun as cosmetics.

    No. Just for one reason: this would look awful - all players with same meta-pets.

    Even if such pets existed, I would not be using "an advised build-pet". My pets are extension of my character's story. My Imperial is always accompanied by a Daedrat. They escaped Coldharbor together, see? And I will not changethe Daedrat to some else pet, even if it will buff my damage or whatever. My Khajiit has a new Boar - he has a lot of things to carry. And so on...
