Stable - What to expect in a future update?

[Anasinator]

Hey guys!

I have talked about this before expansion and I am mentioning it again as long as there is no action from STS towards this subject.

Many players in AL have a lot of pets (over 100) and it is a real struggle to go through them to pick a certain one each time we have to change the pet. I know that the pets you rely on the most are usually level 46 so it is easy to find them on the top of the list but sometimes we need a certain one to use it for a certain boss (for example, Kelvin) or when leveling a newly obtained pet. It is not easy to keep scrolling down the stable during a fight trying to find Waldo!

In my opinion there should be a "Search" button in Stable to make it easy for us to find the pet we are looking for. It would be great also if there are sections where we can categorize our pets based on stats, skills or AA.

In the end, pets are getting larger in number week after week and it's getting messy in Stable. My pets are starting to fight each other! I think this should be considered as animal cruelty. We should do something about it, right?

What do you think? Are there other solutions you can suggest?

Thanks for the feedback. This is definitely something we are aware of and want to address. What if the list of pets in the stable was ordered by pet level, highest to lowest? Would that help?

I think it's already like this but if there was a way to personally adjust the order of our pets...that would be cool.

Yes, something like bookmark or favorite.

[extrapayah]

yes, zeus' idea is the best,

and maybe coloring to names / the box outside the name, to describe its rarity

also a better and detailed description to AA (duration, cooldown),

passive (both chance, how strong the passive is in number, and duration -> in example 10% chance of 20% armor reduction for 4s)
you might also want to try to describe them in icons which you put some legend (explanation) somewhere

anyway, outside of the stable,

1. a feature to call pet to get close to you could be great
2. increased mobility for pet, considering it needs to pick items, and also to catch up jumping players (with skyward smash, shadow pierce, and gale), and give pet immunity to snare/slow
3. AA in cooldown to not lock the pet, but cooldown is maintained, so you can't abuse it by reusing it instantly
4. button in HUD to rotate pet quickly -> could become a refreshing gameplay, could also be limited to 2-3 pets in rotation

P.S. blind breeze needs to be fixed, it is illogical that the current breeze can automatically pick items a lot way further than its attack range

categories would be great, (arcane pet category, mythic category...etc)

just clicking which category you want would save a ton of time.

[raxaxic]

I think adding pets to your loadout screens would be cool too.

I agree with this. Just like the way items in our inventory are color coded and ordered by rarity, I think the same should apply to pets. The arcane pets should appear at the top of your list and should be in red font, then mythic, then legendary, etc.

Then have a toggle button that goes from "All" to Arcane, Mythic, Legendary, Epic and Rare so we can narrow down the list -- the same way such a toggle button appears in the auction.

And make us be able to check/uncheck what loots our pets picks up!normal/rare/epic/legendary.

Pet level, highest to lowest is already implemented... So I doubt it would help the situation much. My suggestion is alphabetical order. Seems the most logical.

Alphabetical order in addition to highest to lowest level rarity categories would be nice too. Anyway I stopped buying useless pets because of this issue

[G-M]

So then this?

Order first by owned/unowned
then, by pet level
then, by pet rarity (highest to lowest)
then, alphabetical by name

[KingMartin]

The last proposal sounds nice. I was about to propose custom loadout of pets (we mostly rotate 4-6 anyway) but that sorting could also work. Only one has to level up special-purpose pets for fast swap (eg stun pet).

[Excuses]

This please.

There are some pets with low rarity that are used a lot too. And alphabetical order will not help to keep the favorite pets on top too.
Just let us make an order of pets.

[Jazzi]

So then this?

Order first by owned/unowned
then, by pet level
then, by pet rarity (highest to lowest)
then, alphabetical by name

This seems fine. Ofc an option to just "push" a pet up and down the list and practically make it fully customizable would be best imho. If this is not feasible your suggestion would do just fine

[Ardbeg]

So then this?

Order first by owned/unowned
then, by pet level
then, by pet rarity (highest to lowest)
then, alphabetical by name

can we please have an option to display the original name? it s getting harder and harder to memorize all the pets on different toons...

[Zaizor]

I'd still like a way to sell or release certain pets back, that I bought in error, as a joke, or as a noob and now have no use for them. That'd be nice. OR, make a custom/favorite list, where I can put my frequently used ones together and I don't have to scroll through the lesser used ones.

[Kakashis]

So then this?

Order first by owned/unowned
then, by pet level

This could work, but custom ordering by the player would be even better.

[Ardbeg]

I minus one this! If you name your pet you should remember it!

with 125 current named pets and some more on alts it really gets hard for example to discuss pet features with other players.

[Motherless_Child]

Maybe first sorting by "how often used" would be a start because I have pets that I never use that are still above other pets that I always use which requires scrolling and searching to get to them and it's a pain when doing this during battle. Sorting by "how often used" makes sense because when you acquire a new pet and your character is already capped you will more than likely not find yourself leveling that pet, but you still use it more than you have used most pets and it is still located somewhere in the middle or near the bottom, like slobber for instance.
