Ripmaw is the first 'Mythic' item available in Arcane Legends. More will follow. If you obtain a Mythic class item there is an Achievement with associated title and vanity banner rewards!
This new pet is a bit of a prelude to the Kraken Isles Expansion, coming in February!
That is awesome!! thanks for the preview sam! so any insight on how this pet interacts with the player? like will it move in circles around you or sit still like other pets when you not moving
Not around you, but he does move in circles!Quote:

cool but too costy wtf :( its a lil poor though graphics and stuff
The shark is cool but for a mythic pet, I kind of picture a 7 foot tall muscular gorilla lol ala Perfect world Free to play PC MMORPG. Their legendary pet cost $250 and was a huge thing that protected its owner like a bodyguard. He was incredibly stronger than the pther pets :) You don't get to see Ripmaw's actual body that much from what I saw except when he jumps. His price is very mythical too lol.
I expected a bit more but he is quite nice. I won't be buying him at this price I don't think but who knows.
Yo the price is unbeliveble 250 plat is basically $20 + tax for a shark that you cant take home
pet granting +15 str ; +3% reduction nd sme regen like flapjack is doesnt seem like mch of mythic. nd 250plat is a way too big for those stats.
i wud b glad to buy at 250p if a pet grants +40str ; +150armour ; +15%dodge nd (crit or dmg or regens) minimum :-D.
a mythic stuff should hav a great stats XD
Nobody has posted yet how much his attack hits for. So far I've noticed that the main difference between the rare, epic and legendary pets are that they each have a fixed damage stat depending on their level. For example, legendary pets at level 20 have 88 damage and 11% crit. I wonder how much damage and crit a level 20 mythic pet has.Quote:

Yeah, for the price Ripmaw is a tad lackluster. It's supposed to be better than legendary... At least add a damage mod of 10% to its happy buff, and up its damage stats a bit..Shiloh bites considerably harder and is also a single target attacker.
As it sits now, I don't think it has enough value to a player to justify the expense. The arcane ability doesn't seem to do anything visible to the naked eye, the pet hits like a wimp, and although the happiness buff is great, it kinda needs a damage component to be "mythic".
Too costly. Plain and simple, and for completionists like myself this presents a huge problem. Ive done every offer available, so nothing left to do but pay cash. STS please lower the price.
In my opinion, u can go ahead and give a mythic pet legendary stats, and give it an incredibly high price. mythic should have something special and not just be a better class, that gets boring. So why not give it the legendary stats (or a tad better), but give it a special feature, like say maybe never ending happiness.

They can't win. If STS boosts the stats, then everyone will complain that the best pet can be bought for plat. LOL
Nice name you gave your shark. LOLQuote:

Shouldn't something mythic be something players aspire to possess? If the pet was arguably the best for every class, a world drop and a plat purchase item it would really be a home run for something "mythic".
They could make buying the pet grant an egg, rather than the pet itself. That way they can be bought with plat and gold. Everyone will have a chance at getting one then.Quote:

If a Ripmaw sold for 1 million gold, but cost 250 plat, everyone with a credit card would jump on the bandwagon until the market was so flooded with the eggs that the price would plummet just so sellers could recover something.Quote:

I like the pet so far. The happiness bonus is awesome. The arcane ability is not very exciting to me compared to other pets, but it fits the theme of the pet. The passive attack seems pretty good.
One thing I noticed is that the pet attacks REALLY slow compared to other pets. Because of this, I do think his damage needs to be bumped up a bit. Either that, or get his attack rate up to par with other pets. Being of mythic quality and having a price tag of 250 plat, this thing should not be doing significantly LESS dps than any other pet.
this seems like something to go in PL that woulda come out during humania
I do like the str as a rouge. Just keeps me alive a bit longer without using pots.Quote:

i thought malison's plat count was a bit high. ripmaw's is overkill lol
Nevermind :)
Was the Shark based off of Saints Row's shark gun? Reminded me a lot of it.Quote:

i hope sts wont make this pet available in next expansion plus wont be lootable!!
The way I see it is an extra expensive Plat "Vanity" to have. The one's with the funds can buy it, but shouldn't be OP in the least.
That way it never becomes a necessity.
Yeah, Bod! You are looking right at the essence! Its more a vanity than battle-breakerQuote:

UPD
Shark does stun, but for a very, no, really - very tiny time.. And does not affect even minor bosses
doesnt seems to state it in screenshots at post 10 and post 12...Quote:

If the shark would give something like +50% chance to reroll for better loot rather than that +14 STR, it would worth something.. But now.. Sorry, it won't be my companion.
The only things to spend my Plats are still the vanities, inventory and character slots.
Predicting the future.. Almost.Quote:

And... Do you think this post (or others like it) influenced how SpaceTime went about making Ripmaw available not only in the stable, but also in egg format?
