I'm down with this. Having multiple toons and switching the tools between them is a bit of an inconvenience. Shared slots like that could do wonders for people.

I could see this being useful. I didn't have this problem because I'm a newer player and this was my first set, but I know several people who were irked over having to buy the unbound magic tools after they already had a set for a rather long period of time. People want the perks, but don't want to shell out more money than they have to. I don't exactly know how this could be put into practice within the store, but I like the idea.

As I'm still fairly new to the game, I think this would be really interesting. It'd certainly help me understand the lore more. How would this work, though, with all races? Sylvari are spawned from the Pale Tree fully grown. There is no such thing as a sylvari "child." THIS.

As a person who almost exclusively plays PvE, I'm not too concerned personally, but I can see how this would be a problem in PvP and WvW, especially given that pets are supposed to be a certain percentage of the ranger's damage. (I think I read that it's like 30%. I could be wrong, and if I am, please correct me.) Also, as someone who does utilize the Beastmastery spec for the purpose of boosting my pets, that is problematic. At the same time, I can understand how difficult it would be to balance that out without making the pets TOO powerful. It'd be silly to have the NPC pet dole out more damage than the actual player. Also, I know this isn't related, but since someone mentioned it, I'm excited to try soulbeast and see how it is. The preview during the PoF announcement seemed underwhelming, but I've heard good things from my guildmates. We'll see how it goes.
