This. I'm of the opinion that a pet like that is fine for a 'get something every week' system (I don't expect a new powerset every week), but pricing it at more than the monthly stipend is just mean. Not getting this. I would if it was 400 or less.

MArcs:

The Echo, Arc ID 1688 (5mish, easy, drama)
The Audition, Arc ID 221240 (6 mish, complex mech, comedy)

Still not seeing the problem. If you only get 400 free points for your monthly stipend the dog only costs 100 paid points. I've seen people in this thread say they'd pay 100 to 400 points for it. So after the free points are taken off the price you guys are paying exactly what you said you'd be willing to pay for it.

To be fair if TW were out (is it out? haven't been paying attention) I doubt many would be spending their points on the dog.

I mean I would eventually . . . but I've come to the conclusion that I'm slightly insane.


Blazara Aura LVL 50 Fire/Psi Dom (with 125% recharge)
Flameboxer Aura LVL 50 SS/Fire Brute
Ice 'Em Aura LVL 50 Ice Tank
Darq Widow Fortune LVL 50 Fortunata (200% rech/Night Widow 192.5% rech)--thanks issue 19!

Now for me TW isn't high on my list of things I want to get. I'll get it eventually, maybe even next month but I don't play melee characters that much.

And we are all slightly insane. The real loons you have to be wary of are the nutters that insist they aren't crazy.

Quick reply: I felt much the same way about the Carnival Harlequin costume. I have people amongst my stable of alts who really want that costume.

I'm *not* going to pay that much for it though, and there the matter shall rest.
