Veteran Reward Respec? (Pet Reselection)

Recently I had this issue which I will try to summarize here, but the thread is over in Player Questions, here.
http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=190457

Basically, I had an alt that I picked veteran rewards for and I chose the Fae instead of the Wisp, forgetting that the Fae are, no offense to the artist, unattractive for what my character looks like.

I wanted to switch from the Fae to the Wisp. BUT, alas, that cannot be done by GM's, let alone players.

Can we have a way to update how a buff pet looks, maybe like a tailor selection?
Or a reward respec, perhaps? Reset all the rewards and choose again?

Finally, have the pet TYPE (Defense, Endurance add/ Damage, Damage Res., etc.) be selected, but the look of the pet be adjustable.

I'm up for any of those, I would just like to be able to change the pet with the look of my hero or villain's outfit (or maybe even background).

Thanks!..

I've never been a fan of things in games like this that are totally unchangeable. I still have alts that I haven't chosen pets for because I'm not 100% sure which pet I want them to have and I'm reluctant to make a choice I know I can't undo.

I've never really understood why Vet power choices couldn't be "reset" by doing a respec. Clearly there are flags set in the game once a player has selected a Vet power that could be reset back to make it as if the player had never selected a given Vet choice. This seems like the easiest way the Devs could implement this.

I have never needed this abilty but I have always been afraid I would.

So yes, please, let us respec these vet power choices.


total kick to the gut

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

This.

So my support for the idea.
