I'm sorry if this issue has been raised before, but I haven't got to scanning all 46 pages of 'all current ideas and suggestions' yet.
I think higher lvl followers should have larger backpacks. OR the ones bigger by size. I imagine a dragon can lug around much more, than a troll or war dog
It's just embarassing for high-lvl players to walk around with a dragon ... and a dog )) Mind you, I'm still very far from those levels myself
OR new quest-like followers of higher levels could be introduced of corresponding lvls (125, 250, 360) available at same lvls. This would change balance a bit though. But if the prices were right...
This is actually a neat idea. What i could see is re-configuring pets' stats like you do with chars, but for money instead of XP. E.g. you vould have 2 options - for attack(default) and defense. Cost = 10% pet cost in shop.
interesting idea... but let me propose this : setting the stats yourself would effectively make it a much higher level monster... needing much higher level charter to own it. additionally, no matter how strong you make it, there will always be places you can't take it safely unless it's the strongest monster in the game (which is very bad for the game imo)
what we certainly don't need is overpowered pets. )
that's why i proposed a simple 2-mode switch. can be done with only 1 additional alternator NPC and one additional 'clone' follower NPC with alternative stats. per existing follower.
... lower-lvl followers could be sold in 'defensive' mode by default, since they are too weak to do any fighting anyway )
