Taming pets or Safe Zone.

Taming:
This could be a new skill... Make it so players, can work hard..at taming beasts some way. Ultima Online..one of first MMORPGs, had a similar skill. It was VERY successful...and VERY few games made something like it.

The beast attacks you, while you try taming. Luring it in, with maybe a certain item. (Foods, Weapon, or even a new character. Hunter). Or kiting the monster, while doing this...and you can't get hit, a certain period of time. Make it lvl restricted... You can do MANY aspects of this. I know players, would LOVE this...and would give them more to do. Then GRIND 24/7..

Safe Zone:
We ALL know...some players get off, on killing other peoples pets. Or some are too new, to know what they are doing. Thinking their pet will be strong enough, to kill monsters following them. Well..people put their pet, at entrances..for a reason. THEY WONT SURVIVE, IN THAT DUNGEON! So...why not make...the entrance area, a safe zone for pets? Or give us a stable option..

I'll spend $5 USD, on 2 pets...and someone usually kills, within 24 hours. I understand...you make $$ from this. But...we already spend money, upgrading our pets now. So help us out a little?

These a just few ideas, to start a whole new aspect...for your game. Players will love this...and appreciate it.
I understand... Code writing is not much fun. But...this will make MANY players, give your game a better chance...because not many games have Taming ability, for wild life...and monsters.

I could get a petition, if you would like.. To prove your community, would enjoy this quite well. Hell...make it to where you have to Buy the Tamer character or something? I dont know.. Just a thought for you guys.

Pets...are most wanted item in your game.

Keep up the great work Forgotten Tales Team.

You suggest that they make money by people killing others pets. That may be true to a point. But it also loses the game money. People won't buy pets because of people killing them. I'm almost to that point myself.

I'm in favor of entrance safe zone where pets cannot atk or be attacked. If this were to happen it would increase pet sales. People will still want them outside of safe zone though to help fight, where they can die.

+1 for pet safe zone

I'm afraid I disagree with the safe zone. Players with pets use them to their advantage during pvp (storage of pots). A safe zone would mean this advantage is guaranteed and is therefore unfair to those without a pet.

If they don't have pets and the attacker does... then the attacker will have an advantage anyway...
Like the defender with no pot storage will have time to gather a mob, lure them to the unknown pet area and dump the mobs off at the attackers pet?
I'm sorry Leone but if this is your real reason to not have a pet safe zone, it is a very poor reason.
Which leads me to believe you have other reasons for not wanting a pet safe zone, reasons that you don't want to post on the forums... reasons that are not acceptable...

My reason is exactly as I stated, so we'll have to agree to differ about it. As for your inference that I lead mobs onto players' pets, I am more likely to help others (or ignore them if spam selling or whatever) than attack them. Whether or not you believe that is up to you, I guess

Either way...the purpose is so players DONT lose their real $$$ pets, while they not being used. (Because they too weak, to be in that zone). I'm done spending money on pets...because of this issue. I'm sure LOTS of players are also. So...its money the game is missing out on.
I understand PvP players, using pets to advantage. But...PvP in this game IS NOT equally balanced, to begin with. That's a complete different subject.
WE NEED TO BE ABLE TO SAVE OUR PETS..SOMEHOW. Stable...safe zone...something.
Cheers!
