<P>Isnt that a new screenshot for the specters (used to be on specter island in Oasis)?</P> <P>Think we will get one for a pet?? Hmmmmm......</P>

gah!! I need someone who's in beta to leak some more info...driving me nuts....seems like beta for this expansion was sent out to alot less people than normal SOE betas <div></div>

<DIV>Are there any new pet in the Expansion ? I hope add a warrior pet   :smileytongue:</DIV>

[Eirgo]

yeah we should get a new tank pet at level 52.6 as long as they still upgrade each spell line every 14 levels after the combat revamp and carry it on into the expansion.  I assume this is the way it will be, and since I am just now getting close to 50 and am trying to get my spells ad3 or M1, I am mainly concerned with getting anything 46+ to master, since they still wont be upgraded even with the expansion.

<P>that looks like it would make a VERY cool pet.</P> <P>It even looks better than most illusions we have so it would be cool either way <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></P>

I just hope they bring back some sort of scyth for them to use. <div></div>

Don`t really care about the skelly being a pet or not (my necro is only lvl 15 anyways, hehe) - the thing that bugs me - why the hell can`t there be robes like that ingame? Each and every robe ingame uses the same model and only different textures, what about this robe and all the robes from pre-launch screenshots?!! <div></div>

Hopefully the expansion will bring some new robes with it that look a littel more... necromancer and a lot less prissy. <div></div>

Yeah I'd like a robe more suitable for the look of a necromancer.  Purple and gold (while a nice looking robe) just isn't really for a necro.   Perhaps even the tailors should be able to change the appearance as a result of imbue's.   Why would folks in Freeport want to look like folks from Qeynos?   Seems the evil side are getting a bum deal on robes with all the patterns being shipped in from qeynos.   Surely a black option would be the easy for the art dept?   Same robe,  just disease imbued or something?   <span>:smileywink:</span> <div></div>

<P>There's something I don't like about that robe. I used to have an action figure of Emporer Palpatine from Star Wars and he had a robe just like that, it was very black and very plastic...the robe seems a little stiff and just slapped on an existing skeleton model.</P> <P> If that is a spectre I think it would have been cooler if they got rid of the legs, made it float, and had robes that flowed or appeared to flow a little more.</P> <P> </P> <P>On a side note, nice graphics. Wish I could run the game like that without lagging lol</P>

<P>BTW check out the official DoF website...there's a section for creatures and one of them IS the spectre...I don't think this screenshot is the same</P> <P> </P> <P><A href="http://everquest2.station.sony.com/expansions/desertofflames/" target=_blank>http://everquest2.station.sony.com/expansions/desertofflames/</A></P>

<DIV>Dunno if EQ1 had Spectre pets but the Spectre pets in EQOA were cool. I'd love to see pets like that added to the game.</DIV>
