rune.9572 Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 (edited) So I farmed caches for 2 weeks to get this tonic and it finally dropped today... instant regret. For an item that takes this long to get through RNG, or costs 800 currency which takes ages to farm (you get 2-7 from regular events and 5-12 from group events) - all you can do is run around. It gives you no fun skills to use, no nothing. It breaks horribly with skin-affecting infusions on. You can't even jump! This is one of the 2 long term things to farm in this expac, the other being the spear skin from 2nd meta boss and it's... a major disappointment. Please add some long term rewards that people can realistically work towards and that don't turn out lame.

Luthan.5236 Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 The "kitten" in the name probably means it is cute. And cute = expensive. That is why it costs a lot. Personally I mainly get all such stuff only for completion - buying the cheaper ones first. I think sooner or later (unless farming for legendaries) people will end up with a lot of currency where the tonic might not be tooo expensive. (+ atm we still need reasons to play content the achievements feel fast to finish compared to SotO release 1 stuff where it took longer) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lowland Warclaws a.k.a. Journeykin look like cartoon cats, just like the Lowland Kodan look like cartoonish teddybears. I consider both rather lame, so no idea why anyone would find either of them "cute." 🤷♀️ 2 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiral.3724 Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 Yeah, just got this as a drop (which I didn't know was possible, so that was cool) but not being able to jump is kinda lame. When you do /dance, the kitten looks like it's gonna barf, lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's also a big reason why there are so many skins in this game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luthan.5236 Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 Maybe they could turn it into a costume brawl toy that would let you spawn warclaw scat to damage your enemies. (+ it being able to turned into the composter for faster renown heart progress at the west heart in Lowlands) Then I bet everyone would be happy. 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natta.8905 Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 I wish one could do more when transformed into the Warclaw Kitten. Would be good if it had a fly mode and jump mode (like with the Skyscale Tonic or any other tonics like the quaggan etc). Also if it had a combat mode and a attack look mode (the look it has when it goes in a ready to attack mode,down with its back like the Pet does after it sniffs). Some tonics has the combat mode so could be a good thing for this one too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isopod.4156 Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Sad to hear this, I like how the janthir wildclaw look and really wanted that tonic, I'll probably still keep trying to get the drop but not being able to jump always sucks with tonics don't even know why just feels bad man.

Natta.8905 Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Maybe updates will be done on this tonic but I also like its look, very cute. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liewec.2896 Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 wait another tonic without a jump? what year is this?! c'mon Anet... i get in older expacs tonics for things like boneskinner might not have had jump because there was no animation for boneskinner jumping (though it would have been nice if they could have made one for the tonic) but Warclaws are already player controlled, they have jumping animations, there is no excuse for this tonic to be missing a jump. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vhaziri.7930 Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 I was so excited to get this, and yeah, instant disappointment because I can't JUMP ;_; 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, you can't say kitten, or kitten, or kitten, or kitten, or kitten, or kitten, or kitten... Can't say anything around cat owners really... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
