    - constant drain on mana (like -1 or -2 m/s, which would either drain your mana or negate any current mana regen) Good idea
    - a weak empathy (now engi heals can go up to about 100 or so, so maybe 20-30 or so per tick in PvE) Yes it would have to be weaker!
    - less frequent ticks (instead of every 3 seconds, maybe every 5 or 6 seconds) Make it so.
    - only affect wearer or a very small radius, like 1-2 meters (i know i said just wearer before, but i see no reason for the whole party to benefit a little - maybe heal party members for half of what it heals wearer for) Don't think they'd benefit much, it'd be like a doubly reduced Empathy.

    sorry, just brainstorming, i feel like i'm throwing contradicting ideas out here.

    EDIT:

    I feel like this would fall under the same category as "pet" but you would just "equip" the cultist instead. an attacking cultist is, in essence, the same thing as an attacking pet.
    to be honest, i would rather have a cool looking pet that drops than a cultist. but i wonder if the cultist would also turn into a mole? i digress.........
    I'm gonna digest too, Lelouch. Mole cultists FTW! We could have a new expansion for Shipyard - they've burrowed under the decks and awoken a creature that shouldn't have been awoken!

    tbh, I'd be happy with a pet who does anything besides circle me. sure, I loves me some vanity pets, but it would be nice to have active pets in the future. I hope STS plans to to do this at some point. but I think they should steer clear of puppies........

    Love the idea of a hawk! That could be really cool. It could swoop down and attach enemies!

    But i think we have a problem here.. To sell pets for plat as vanity is fine, but to sell PvE pets is going to alter the balance.. To keep game balance, those pets should be accessible for everyone, and not everyone has plat.

    The first step in the solution is to make pets 'droppable' (i hope it will be done in the next update)

    The second step - is to make those droppable pets PvE or just value adding

    My point is that they MUST be accessible for anyone - whether via drop or CSShoppe

    Peace
    Attack pets as a droppable vanity would be great, then you would see a huge increas in vanity farm ing lol.

    Strongly oppose this one - it could seriously unbalance PvP.

    Well I hate to be...idk anti-something. But tbh I've never liked the idea of a pet fighting. I like having a pet in general and I wouldn't mind pets with mininal stats (like 1 armor vanities and faces.) I simply wouldn't like pets fighting...just imo of course.

    The attacks could be disabled in PvP.

    Fair enough, your opinion I personally like the idea.

    well, you can already say the same thing about plat armor. but disabling for PvP would be fine too, even just for PvE i think this would be a good addition.

    "anti-something" lol.
    well, i try to look at it as another piece of armor or weapon. it's just another piece of "gear" to equip to give you an advantage over your opponent from my view. Also, 1 armor meant something in PL, but not here. The equivalent to the 1 armor you got from vanities there would be ~50 armor in SL, since that is roughly what it takes to reduce damage damage taken by one.

But, the outfit is a legendary out fit and Samhaye or the Spacetime Devs could choose the stats. If you don't want to pay for the outfit, you have to kill 1000 cultists ( in the Shipyard lvl ) and kill the mysterious figure 100 times. Sounds good right?

    Yours sincerely,

    Techquake
    Main issue is that paying 5 million is ALOT harder than killing mysterious fig XD make it 500 kills on mys fig then it would be an epic quest

    Great ideas, but most likely wont be put in :/. Attack pets for credits maybe.
    You had me up to that point. Now how exactly is STS steering clear of plat advantages (especially recently)? Miners pot? That is the biggest plat boost ever added to the game. Tradable rare pinks for plat essentially. If something, sts is indeed steering towards that very direction. Although the vanity pot sounds ridiculous to me, it's actually something I would no longer be surprised to see.

    (and just for the record: I'm not a heavy plat spender, but I very much dislike these recent plat changes. It feels like the game had been handed over from the developers and designers to the business people)
