Well I would agree in one thing only, there should be possibility to lvl up pet skills beyond +5, as it would be perfect gold sink. OK lvling pet up from 80-85 would cost 1,122G gold, so even more, than you can have on char, but many players would lvl it up to lvl 60-70 and even that could be close to 1G gold. On the other hand tiering UP equipment t7-->t8 on my serv without PFS special offer would cost just over 700M gold, tiering is one time deal and IDK if +1% att speed, +1% att power, +2% crt dmg, +2%def, +2%hp, +2% rec heal and +1% luck wouldn't be better in any way +some additional stats of course (but lets face it better to buy some card from AH, than get those stats from pet) and moste of it it's permanent.

Of course making it that way would also mean, that you can no longer have any event making lvling pet free, so no more golden eggs, no more training/exp amulets. So here we have a problem. One way to look at it would be, if you wanna stronger pet, just give some cash to GF, another would be "waste" some time and farm this 1 egg/day, but I would as said before simply add golden egg for gold on MF, as for the price? Well.... it should be definitely higher than 10x Miller's Cake I would say 100x, so 350k each would be OK. Expensive? Still 40% cheaper than with dias (on my serv) with special offer on aptitude potion and close to 65% on talent potion. This way you will have 3 ways spend $, spend ingame gold, spend time, to lvl up your pet. So not a change at all or more gold sink. Of course I would also agree, that dia prices of IS items should drop and probably then we should adjust egg prices, but it probably should never be less than 20x Miller's Cake

I really don't see how unbinding golden eggs would be a problem. If someone wants to make 1000 accounts to get one egg on each, that sounds like a really slow and really stupid thing to bot.

Agreed. I thought just the GM events were the only the danger, but CammoXD had an answer to that issue:

Quoted from "CammoXD"

Really high level pet is NOT as issue by the way. Max level your pet can be is the same level as your character, so currently lvl 85 is max pet level.

I thought pets could be a few level above you char? Anyway, so probably the pets we are seeing @SW on eu servers are simply somehow modified using external programs or some other bugs, and this issue is probably not about "normal" leveling at all.

But then again: it seems to mean that there is no real argument against making golden eggs unbound?

Quoted from "Cike"

even make golden eggs drop into your bag as you catch a cavy, as in each cavy caught(pet egg) comes with 1 golden egg. yes, there is farming potential for those go-getter players, but i really do not think botting would be an issue, as i doubt you could make cavy-catching bot very successfully, as it actually requires planning and flexibility(essentially requires you to think).

I really like this idea (independent of whether golden eggs are bound or not).

I really dont see why it would make a huge difference golden eggs arnt the best way to lvl a pet millers cake is and still would be.
golden eggs are good for geting the aptitude up and training the skills for free and one a day IS resonable more so than the ability to grind most of you are just lazy tho i can agree that those chickens are evil and need to become dinner.
But unless they raised the skills past 5 not really a big deal amd raising it past 5 might be bad i mean if it were a fire pet and 10% cast speed would anyone really want to do more than run form a mage in sw if i had that my flame would be a one second cast insted of a 2 second

(i be mage/rogue faster cast speed) if anything they should sell the pet exp orbs in the item shop for a reasonable price unless it benifits GF i doubt anything will get done put the exp orbs into the item shop permanently (to my knowledge they've never even been in there) or maybe just lower the 1k exp pot from 45 dia's to between 25-15 dia's they'd make money but it'd be cheap enough for people to still buy if they would adjust some of the price's (or better yet just make more dia's for your money

i dont trust they wont make it worse somehow) this game would make more money i can spend all i want but if say someone that could spare only $100 every 2 weeks or so and it might actually get them somewhere insted of maybe buying a new toy for they're kid or something they pay rom i pay $40 nearly every

week and that only gets like 1k if that price got me even 2k it would help a lot more and it might be worth spending even more money.

You do that on purpose, don't you?

I tried to read from the word "But" all the way to he word "money" 6 times without taking a breath. I could not do it. Could anyone else?

I'm lazy show me a rule that says i have to type the right way you can still read it and no i dont do it on purpose i just dont think about it also zid be quiet about my typing and thinking ability

This thread reminded me a suggestion I forgot to post a while ago. Make dailies give 1 golden egg each. There's no risk of exploitability and 10 golden eggs is a fair amount. They could be included as reward for doing tittle dailies, minigames or guild castle daily as well

certainly with the limit of them being bound does severely limit what you can do. Having more than 1 quest that you can get them from or even boost the number of eggs from the miller farm quest.

Leveling pet past 50 is currently useless anyway, at least add more skills to make it worthwhile to even level it after 50.
