Putting a pet OP enough to far surpass sns in crates is not a viable solution IMO. This game is already turning into pet legends. A single pet should never been allowed to make or break a clash like nekro and sns do. Throwing a pet into locked crates that far surpasses sns would only strengthen the foundation on which pet legends is being built. The gap between the maxed out and the legendary users is already wide enough. Instead of further widening it, STS should focus on making pets and gear to bridge this ridiculous gap. However I agree with you on the fact that the reign of sns has lasted far too long.
@original post, it has been suggested by multiple people to put sns or a equal pet in locked crates. I agree that the current sns users have had more than their fair share of fun with sns and its time toake it available to all, but throwing it in regular locked crates seems too easy of a solution. What I would suggest is that it is put a special kind of locked crate, one that drops only from elites (to clarify, elites would only drop this locked crate and no longer drop regular ones). We have been complaining about how annoying it is to loot a locked crate after a 10 minute run and 2-5 ankhs and this seems like a reasonable solution to me.
Another solution that occurs to me is to make it craftable. This will be done through sheer hard work, with none of the ingredients being tradable. My suggestion is as follows. The first step would be to get the recipe. This would be done by looting a parchment of similar rarity to the ones for the nekro quest from EVERY elite boss of arlor, from brackenridge to planar tomb 3. The final step would be to collect 350 arena chests, 1000 planar fragments and 250 dragkin teeth and some amount of the currency of the latest expansion (Rage of Rengol). I understand that this has no story line, and I leave it to sts to create that, but here is my suggestion regarding the sns issue.
Sorry for the long post and thanks for reading.
