psizone.8437 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 https://www.buffed.de/Guild-Wars-2-Spiel-17072/Specials/Secrets-of-the-Obscure-Vorschau-angespielt-1426749/ Had to use google translate since I don't speak German but this article from before launch mentions more pets being added after launch but I can't find any other info. "While Waldis will get a magical land shark at launch that simply swims through the earth, more pets will be added after launch." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kharmin.7683 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 As a ranger main, I don't really want any new pets because they really wouldn't fill any niche that isn't already done. I'd rather the existing zoo be fixed/adjusted first, but the competitive crowd wouldn't like it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each expansion has brought unique pets that did something that wasn't done before. No amount of fiddling with older pets is going to do that. 4 hours ago, kharmin.7683 said: I'd rather the existing zoo be fixed/adjusted first, but the competitive crowd wouldn't like it. That's coming on the 28th. I'm hoping we get one or two more throughout the year with the story updates. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CETheLucid.3964 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 I hope we get one of those beefy Pummel Spiders from Nayos. It looks like a proper tarantula. It could be the first melee spider. I hope we get that and one more personally. Land shark 🦈, pummel spider 🕷️, ??? 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beddo.1907 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 My guess would be no pet they could think of, that would work lore wise. Most enemies so far are sentient and the new map didn't have much usable wildlife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a fan of the human hands on each spider digit. I get it though. Pummel spider. With the hands that can make a fist. They'll pummel you. Heh. This is what being a crazy inter dimensional demon realm explorer is like I suppose. 🫠 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oahkahmewolf.6210 Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 (edited) Generally speaking, there are certain pets that do not fill a niches currently at this moment. Buff Pets Quickness Resolution Resistance Super-Speed Stability Alacrity Damage Reduction Damage Enhancer Barrier Provider Fire/Shocking/Magnetic/Dark/Light Aura providers (Snow Moa will provide an Frost Aura for players on November 28th) Non-Condition CC Slow Condition Combo Fields Dark Water (healing seed doesn't count from current pig) Light Field Extra (Misc or Ect) De-buff for Anti Mobility (as in denies Teleporting, Movement based abilities) Ability to provide a teleport for player similar to Mesmer, scourges and Thief Ability to reflect Missiles Boon-Removing (unleash trait-ed does not count) There's more that I am thinking I just post accidentally early Generally speaking, they make pets have something we don't normally have already, whether its a certain damage type, Condition or even utility. With the recent expansion we got a CC shark that can consistently provide hybrid damage with its autos and consistent Torment from its F3. So I wouldn't be surprised if we get a demon pet that has the ability to remove boons, spit out a Dark Field or provide a strong ability to dish out FEAR.

I'd use the hell out of that pet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
