Incarnate Lore Suggestion


Blood Red Arachnid

This might be a bit nit picky for just one power... but it would be nice if we could pick which lore pets we get from the group. For example, For the Nemesis lore pet, I would pick the jaegers over the humans, because I can more easily justify my character having a reworked nemisis robot than having a magic ghost man help me. I mean, there is a pretty wide range of mobs from the various groups for the most part. It would nice to be able to pick say a the rock DE as a stone controller or a Rikti Drone etc.

This sounds like an awesome idea, but it also falls under the same jurisdiction as customizeable mastermind pets.

Basically, they would have to take each of the various units in the enemy groups and then customize them so they can have the proper animations and the proper powers to fulfill every single possible role, whether it be intangible or the boss rank pet. And with different powers and animations comes the AI of each individual to perform as well as the others...


I'm not a programmer, but this sounds like it might be very troublesome to do. I would love this idea, though, since it would allow me to have my Soldiers of Arachnos each have the core pet summon, but different allies with them.

Not really. With the lore pets, there is already a variety that you can get, the main hurdle with implementing my idea is creating a new part of the ui to choose which pets you get. After that you tke the existing mob and just port it in. Theres no reason a Jaeger needs to have the same animations or powers as a surgeon for example. Just have the pets tiered according to power level(similar to how they have it now)
With MM and controllers it is differnt, because the pets and their powers would have to remain the same for balancing reasons, but not so with lore pets, as they are already differnt.
