That's the link for the video showing a new pet named Snowball, as well as what looks like the new map expansion "Dead City". This clip surely made me pumped and going!

Thoughts?

Thoughts? Hmmm.. this hum, how to say..? It's a bit.. well... it looks...























Awesome!!!!!!!!

PS: I can see Samhayne pretty happy with that pet xD

[CriticalCyr]

Leave it to the devs to get excited about his tricks, and not his combat capabilities, lol.

Ahaha! Even I was wondering what boost would it give as its happiness bonus though I could not blame the commentator for his reactions, I would have felt the same thing ;)

[Astrocat]

The thing that I don't get with the new pets, is that they are even more expensive in platinum price, and they are weaker. I mean, our actual pets are better, and cheaper.

Great,I love the pet not sure if it`s a drop or for plat... :confusion:

Snowball pet will cost 25 platinum. :)

[CriticalCyr]

His Happiness bonus is you recieve increased damage by 5% and +5 Crit.

There might also be snowball egg drops from a certain winter goblin ;) more details coming soon.

Aesthetics. You walk around Kraag flaunting your one of a kind companion and showing how unique it is, but by the moment you engage in Elite runs- it gets back to the stable. :)

Let's see, so if ever it's 25 platinum and adding 50 for extra vanities and the new premium weapon type, I'd be safe with $10 plus a pinch of offers from third parties.

True, but that is not really good to do. I mean, new pets should be better and not weaker. :p
I'll definitely buy snowball to show off in a year or so, but the new Dungeon's pets, are not worth it. :( Well, Wrath has good stats and does look amazing with the fire effects, but, looks like you cant buy it with platinum, and since it's a legendary from the new dungeons, i'll guess we'll see it listed up at 999k+ in CS.

[Limsi]

Oh, do you have any links to any source of information where I can read about this "Wrath"? Thanks! :)

Edited: I have found it already, nevermind this post! ;)

[Bless]

*screams like a drama queen* But I called dibs on wrath!

[KingGiant]

Didn't anyone notice that the final Rogue skill is active in the video? Or is this old news already?

They could have at least made it look like a snowman rather than that monstrosity

We are in a Fantasy game, my friend.

[CriticalCyr]

It looks more like a snowman than any snowman I've ever made.

Is it the school holidays already? Snowmen exist in real life, make it look like a snowman, like the cats and dogs and other real life looking pets look like they should.

There hundreds of different kinds of animals in the world and all have different looks even if they are related by a certain category. Two dogs may be dogs, but they don't always look the same.
Snowmen can come in many forms. Two snowballs? Three? One? Coal for eyes? Some don't have eyes. Twigs for arms? Frosty had snow arms. What type of hat to put on top? Mine didn't have any.
They can be snowmen without looking like the same beside the other :)

[liondedan]

I don't like the look of the snowman

Finally a sensible answer thank you.

I agree however to me it dosn't look much like any snowman I ever saw. If they wanted it to look nasty they should have made it look like the abominable snowman out of the donald duck christmas cartoon.

[Urqui]

Hope this pet doesn't need to be fed since snowmen don't actually eat
Jk. I love this pet & hope it's in my stable soon:)

I wanted a Frosty the Snowman type from the old cartoon, but oh well we get what got and we got what we get. :)
