Should ZoS finally listen to players about the size of the Sorc's Matriarch/Tormentor pet?

✭✭Other (Leave explanation)Get rid of permanent pets. Make them last 8/16 seconds same as Nercos. This would also get rid of the double bar requirement. ZOS would also have to do something about the Wardens bear as well.
Maybe the bear would go on a rampage and be stronger while its out for one morph, maybe similar to necro smash only the bear goes running after its target. And another it does a protective stance between you and danger actually purposefully providing LOS the few seconds it is up. Mauls and stuns any enemy within 7m of you.

✭✭✭✭Other (Leave explanation)I don't think the size is the problem. I'd rather have them phase out if they get within X distance of a crafting station, utility NPC or some such. It should not be hard to make them just go invisible within a certain range of things players need to interact with.3 -

✭✭No, leave them be. They are fine.I'm against making them smaller. Sorry, but I like my pets the way they are.
Should they be disabled in towns and around wayshrines, crafting stations, etc.? Yes, as there's no reason to have your pets out when you're shopping, crafting, etc. Alternatively, add a toggle option to "Settings" to allow us to hide other players' pets (and maybe or own).1 -

Don’t mind too much in towns, tbh, but recently had the experience of a guild trial group with people with pet builds - and oh my god they were annoying! Kept having to move so they weren’t filling my entire view and so I could possibly catch a glimpse of what was going on so could respond & not die. Not the most positive experience.
This. ^
As a healer, I am usually at the back of the group - and so are the bloody flapping monstrosities, blocking my view. Smaller would be good, changing it for something smaller and not flapping constantly, even better.
A 'forced dismiss' around crafting stations and banks would be good too. Move out of the range and the pets pop back in, just like when the player enters water.Edited by AlienSlof on March 1, 2020 10:36AMBionic Crazy Cat Lady3 -
phoenixkungfu✭✭✭✭No, leave them be. They are fine.Pets in eso are in a terrible spot. Simply put sorcerer pets suck. Eso has made double duel bar pet sorcerer extinc. Now you want even more. If you cant beat a pet sorcerer now with all of the over nerf changes. Hand out eso 2019 nerfs has given you. Its simple you suck. Double bar pet sorcerer is the WORST SET UP IN THE GAME. It's not even close to any other classes. The class is honestly focus on the lightning staff skill line for damage...o wait they just nerf that.1

Have to agree, the flapping of the wings is annoying. Make it much smaller or change it to something that is not so distracting.2 -

✭Yes, please make the Matriarch/Tormentor pet smaller.I know this is by far not a new subject to talk about. I don't want to flog a dead horse but I never really noticed any official response from ZoS on the subject of the sorc's pet size (the flapper)
You do not want to flog a dead horse yet you create another thread on the subject.
For the same reason Zos did not reply to previous threads I do not expect them to choose this one to make a comment. It is just not that big of an issue. In the rare case, a pet is blocking our way a step to one side or another often remedies the issue. I say that from over 40 hours of playtime per week since the March 2014 launch of this game.
you're right, zos had bigger issues to fix, like iceheart overperforming

✭Yes, please make the Matriarch/Tormentor pet smaller.They should be a crime to have out in towns. Half the time I can't even side step because they're literally right ON top of the thing I'm trying to interact with. You don't need them in banks. You don't need them to turn in writs. Get rid of them.
literally this. THANK YOU. finally someone with sense. if necro pets are a crime, sorc and warden pets should be as well.

✭✭✭No, leave them be. They are fine.I'm fine with their size, the only problem is how pets block delivery points since not all players care to unsummon pets when they're not in combat.

From what I've seen on these forums, most people seem to be in favor of perhaps toning down the size of the flapper and most would probably agree they get very annoying very quickly.
I wanted to make a poll so we could get an idea just how many people would like to see something done about it. Please ZoS, if you could scale them down a tad, I'd be very happy. I can't imagine it would even be a difficult task to perform, but it would be a huge improvement to the game, in my opinion.
So let them know what you want.
I voted to make them smaller, because they are ridiculously annoying flapping in everyone's faces, even your own if they are yours. I tend to remove them whenever I am in a town etc, out of courtesy and frankly because I cant stand them.
BUT, that is not actually my preference. I would prefer both were reworked, in fact I think all "pets" should actually have a class appropriate range of skin options. I hate the look of both Sorc pets, they look horrendous. Even if we could colour the skins to match your character aesthetics, that would be a start.3 -

Tommy_The_Gun✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭It is not for me to decide. However, I can tell you that ZOS will do nothing about it, as they have double standards...
Look at werewolf pets that are untargatable and then at sorc or warden pets that still somehow can effectively body block in PvP and block interactions in PvE, when looting stuff or trying to use craft stations.
Lack of consistancy is stunning.0 -
Tigerseye✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭Other (Leave explanation)Should be some optional way to make them smaller, if you choose to.
However, even more importantly, there should be ways to make them look better and/or different (reskins).
Warden pets also need reskins, obviously.1 -
