Please consider fixing Conjuror pet models in Test Update 19b

[RedRockCandy!]

<div></div>Its been three weeks since the pet graphics were botched yet we have seen no response from SOE on why our pets were ruined. I would be happy just getting the old models back, but if for some reason thats not possible then please research better models to use. My pet is something I constantly look at and something I am always seen with, they must look better than how they do now. So please, at the very least, return them back to normal.<div></div>

[Magu]

Yes, please change the air pet back to the Aery Outrider look, complete with the changing weapon types.We LIKED that look, not this new crappy ghost model.And for Igneous Magi, reverse the adept/master looks again, you screwed it up in LU18 - elemental should be master, and gargoyle should be adept.<div></div>

[RedRockCandy!]

<div></div>I wouldnt mind the ghost model for air pets if it wasnt so glitchy, turning into a real textured model at far distances and such, Aery hunter would look better in a robe, maybe they can hack together a new costume for the Air pets similar to what Blackguard said they did for his character on Test.The elemental model for the fire pet should be done away with, or given to a low level fire pet as its a level 20 illusion. These pets shouldnt change shape completely for each level of spell, they should remain the same model but grow in size, get better weapons, eye pleasing effects and such. I shouldnt have to shell out a ludicrous 25 plat just to have a nice looking pet, ya know?I'll always hate the mossy green earth pet, I want the black one back even though its the same model I had at level 20 when I got my Tellurian Hero.<div></div>

[Magu]

The gargoyle is too big already though. I'd love to have the elemental back on my Master Igneous Magi...<div></div>

[RedRockCandy!]

<div></div>The SOGA Dark Elf model for the Aery Hunter has gots to go.<div></div>

<div></div>Air pets are scouts. The best I can imagine is a ghostly creature inside a true chainmail armor. That would be great !

[Serpentine]

Agreed,I think there has been plenty of unhappy conjurors out there.  Now they are nerfing us in 19a ..What next? Please set the pets back the way they were at least until you hire a graphic designer with some ability !

[AbsentmindedMage]

As far as the air pet goes they have to have some sort of model that would work better than a ghost.  Perhaps, they have a model from Kingdom of Sky that would work good.  Maybe a "ghost" form of one the Aviaks.  What would really be neat would be a blue/white colored version of one of those Flame twisters and have that cloudy smoke around the twister base. hehI am not very pleased with them using those rumblers as a model.  I cannot complain about the models for the fire pet line but do agree it would be better to switch the gargoyle and the magi.<div></div>

Show the old aery model inside of ebon or cobalt depending on which spell it is, much like Nylph's Misty Image uses the aery model with a robe and hair on it.</span><div></div>

[RedRockCandy!]

<div></div>The more I look at the ghost model the more I hate it. I think the pet is more fitting for a necro.<div></div>

[Eyes_of_Truth]

<div>Air pets should come from the plane of Air or sky.</div><div> </div><div>To my knowledge, there were never any ghostly elves in the plane of air or sky...</div><div> </div><div>The Plane of Sky did infact have Djin though, and considering we get our level 60 air pet in the DOF expansion, wouldnt it be most fitting for our level 60 air pet to be a Djin with fancy weapons?</div><div> </div><div>Much more logical and visually appealing in my oppinon, what do you guys think?</div>

[Magu]

I'd rather have the old aery look instead of a djinn<div></div>

<div></div><div></div>LU19b is here and they forgot to fix the models. Should we roll out an alt or what?<div></div><p>Message Edited by RedRockCandy! on <span class="date_text">01-19-2006</span><span class="time_text">09:27 AM</span></p>

[Igu]

<div>I stopped playing my 43 Conjuror mostly because I hate the new pet models so much. I would like to have the old ones back.</div><div>I have a 26 necro now. Their models are outstanding now. Though I would the gnoll skel model to have been the adept 3 one instead of the app1. A plain human skel is just kind of plain.</div>

[RedRockCandy!]

<div></div>That was supposed to say 19b but I made a type, I edited it.Anyway, heres hoping our fixes are in 19c!<div></div>

[SniperKitty]

Whine some more RedWhinerCandy.  It's a pet graphic that's supposed to look like it's made of air.  It serves it's purpose.  If you don't like it... stop playing EQ2 and leave.<div></div>

[RedRockCandy!]

<div></div>And please a stupid kid like you? Never, do you even play a Conjuror? Didnt think so, you dont know what you are talking about, get the stick out of your butt, get a clue, and take a hike.<div></div>

We had them for so long and then they pull the carpet out from under us.</span><div></div>

RedRockCandy!....Look at your Terms and Conditions. You should know that it's likely to happen.<div></div>

[Deadly Nightshadow]

A change of any aspect of the game. Making a post about the models isn't going to get anything changed.<div></div>

[RedRockCandy!]

<div></div>I know its in the ToS that the game changes, most changes I dont protest. But sometimes they change something that wasnt needed or add something nobody or very few wanted. If a very small group of people can get the SOGA models put in then I might as well fight the good fight and protest the Conjuror model changes that nobody asked for. I will protest the changes until they revearse them or improve upon them, or until the expansion comes out whatever comes first. SOEs silence on this matter has been disturbing, graphics just arent a priority to them it seems as things get constantly rehashed and rushed, I fear the game may come to a close after KoS comes out.<div></div>

[KBern]

<div></div>Well if they address your models as quickly as they did ours...you will see some new ones around this time next year.

[RedRockCandy!]

<div></div>LU 32?<div></div>

[KBern]

<div>lol probably</div>

[RedRockCandy!]

<div></div>The SOGA models will never be forgiven. While I have accepted that my toons image is [Removed for Content] by those that choose to use these abominations, I will be reminding them every day of the aspect of this game that got ruined when they put them in. I'll never understand this infatuation with pale, boney character models that look like something fierce is chewing on their butt hole when they run.I've accepted the fact that SOE has no interest in fixing pet models or ever offering any models with any kind of "Wow!" factor. Right now I'm pushing for something that looks "ok" instead of "This is rehashed crap". If you really do enjoy the new 48+ models please tell me why without puking up a PC performance response.Yes they put in content, but most of the time its not complete and/or broken. KoS should have just been an adventure pack with no level cap increase. Also, why bump up the goddang guild level when there arent even any level 40 rewards worth anything? SOE is silent on major graphical issues which means they dont care and/or dont have the resources to fix them, this points in the direction of a dieing game. I have no comfort in not knowing whats going on, they constantly dumb the game down because they are desperate for new subscriptions, just look, they even include the first EQ release with KoS because they are in such dire need of new players, they are even willing to bone current players just to lure in more, look at the new tradeskill updates going in.  Its been over a month since LU 18 went in and they FAILED to give any kind of response on why Conjuror pet models were ruined and what they are planning to do to fix them, theres just no reason for this unless the game is close to being through, I hope I'm wrong though, but every day that goes by I lose more and more hope.<div></div>

What server do you play on RedRock?  Cause I wanna follow your characters around with the SOGA models turned on and take screenshots of them with /cutemode turned on too.  Then I can post them here for everyone to see. =)<div></div>
