Paragon Market: Ligers and Lions...OH MY!

Well, it looks like the April Fool's joke is on us!

They actually MADE a Liger for us as a vanity pet, as well as an excellent looking Lion vanity pet.

Here's the two pets available for the BUNDLE: Jungle Pets 1 available on the Paragon Market today!

Liger




Lion



Figured everyone would want to see the images up front.


Enjoy all!

They look really good, the detailing is very nice. I think the body of the liger should be a bit more slender, though.

I just... I just... *sigh* I am moving to a Steel Canyon penthouse until the Paragon City Zoo gets their act together...


@Winter. Because I'm Winter. Period.
I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.

Those deep set eyes creep me out. A little too reminiscent of that awful hybrid in Alien Resurrection.

I wish they'd focus on fixing bugs and REAL content (for me REAL content is missions, zones, costumes and powersets).
This companion pets/travel powers/whatever with 4 legs rig has no end!

Saving my points again for this week, like the whole past month, wondering if is worth it to pay for VIP... Weak releases dudes!

Did you cancel your subscription whenever they failed to release a new power set that week pre-Freedom? Or whenever a cosmetic-only microtransaction was released? My goodness, it's a wonder you ever subscribed at all!

Sure you might not care about these vanity pets and that's fine. But don't let yourself be fooled into thinking that the -only- thing the entire Dev staff of Paragon Studios has been doing lately was working on these pets. You realize that one person can churn out vanity pets while other people can be fixing bugs and working REAL content at the -same- time right?

This is why I always laugh at people who suggest that the Devs should spend time fixing bugs for a few months BEFORE creating any other new content. The naivety of that notion is laughable for almost too many reasons to count.

You know what would have been nice in concordance with these?

A staff...that you could wave around to direct your pets, or even swat them on the bum-bum if they're being naughty and peeing on your rug, or perhaps to swat them away.

But apparently Marketing has a massive blind spot toward Staff Melee and the Devs have arleady lost track of the new powerset they've made a few months ago.

Aaah well...

I wish they were a little less like a small dog in a room full of bouncy balls, you've finally got a four legged rig, bravo but give it a bleeding rest, you could of saved these for next month.

WTF do lions and ligers have to do with Easter anyway?

Don't fall for the bait people. These guys are running thread to thread trying to bait people not happy into an argument. DON'T fall for it.


The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.

Well they need to eat,too. And Easter bunnies are a delicacy to a liger.

Well technically it's the feast of Esther, which involves a lot of celebrating and so on...but no lions. Of course, Christians were allegedly thrown into lion pits and Easter is connected to that sect so there's an oblique connection...

Or... they're following up with ancillary goodies to all those who have taken up Beast Mastery and fully supporting a power set and theme.

I'm sure when Staff comes out, people would want to see more options for staves and maybe a sale of the Martial Arts pack and Imperial Dynasty pack and Melee SBEs for sale and Ninja Run on sale... the kind of stuff they're doing for Beast Mastery right now.

More options for staves? Sure!

Sale on Martial Art pack, Imperial Dynasty bundle, and all that other stuff mentioned? No...not really.

Ligers vary in appearance depending on how the genes interact and on which subspecies of lion and tiger are bred together. In general, males grow sparse leonine manes and the facial ruff of a tiger. Males and females have spotted bellies and a striped back.

I am extremely disappointed overall with how long they've been sitting on Staff Fighting and then release stupid things like this that weren't even entertaining as April Fool's jokes.

I won't be buying the vanity pets but don't mind others having them as long as
they (and all the AT pets) are kept out of the Auction house; the vault; the train terminals and the University crafting areas.

If I have to trip over, dodge, shove out of the way or kill the sound to do what I want to do, then I do mind their presence in the game.

Paragon ligers have stingers, is Justin Sinclair trying to breed manticores?

What is this nonsense? You talk as if there's more than one dev working at Paragon!

Photoshopped... Ligers don't have manes! Or it could be a Tigon, but I don't think they have full manes like that either.

And if that doesn't happen ( which it isn't )?
