I figure this is the right forum...Well anyone else notice that non-combat pets are plagued by a mixture of appearance, and animation issues?Being an SK I've grown hot under the collar that my squire is now stuck with one appearance. I wouldn't mind a locked appearance if I can/could choose his look. I don't care if it costs 1p to customize him/her but one my RP is now ruined and now I can't even have an NPC companion to keep company while I toil away on solo quests, he is so god forsaken ugly I just can't have him out. Honestly I know coding is hard but by using the dressing room perhaps the dev/art team can let us go to the Freeport Militia/Qeynos Guard and talk to an NPC who'd allow us to choose our Squire's appearance at the cost of coin perhaps a questline? Thanks to his now locked appearance the "Fun" spell has lost all fun. I know ALOT of unhappy SKs and Paladins. Considering all the issues plagueing SKs why take away one of the few little joys we did have?Also to add to it on rare occassion his armor cuts up, sometimes he stand crooked.On another note...the zygomid pet from Splitpaw seems to like to occassionally walk crooked or go underground.I have yet to even bother getting the Goblin from the Live Event.My Sokokar also seems to like to on rare occassion get stuck, normally it is only stuck for a few seconds. I have checked to see if I was lagging.It just seems like I am not meant to have any form of company during my questing?!I'm very heart-broken about the loss of my squire!<img src="http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j63/andrewcrash/EQ2_000005.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" />Before: (Unfortunately during my pc reformat I lost my old pics.)<a rel="nofollow" href="http://s77.photobucket.com/albums/j63/andrewcrash/?action=view&current=EQ2_000005.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j63/andrewcrash/EQ2_000005.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><a rel="nofollow" href="http://s77.photobucket.com/albums/j63/andrewcrash/?action=view&current=EQ2_000005.jpg" target="_blank"> </a>Now:<a rel="nofollow" href="http://s77.photobucket.com/albums/j63/andrewcrash/?action=view&current=EQ2_000006.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j63/andrewcrash/EQ2_000006.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><a rel="nofollow" href="http://s77.photobucket.com/albums/j63/andrewcrash/?action=view&current=EQ2_000004.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j63/andrewcrash/EQ2_000004.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a>ARG!!

It is hard enough as a female Gnome SK to get respect, now I am stuck with a Human man who insists on trying to form two little tiny mohawk looking this with his wiskers. My small orc warrior has BETTER grooming standards. At least if you are going to stick EVERYONE with that one Human man... make his shave. As soon as I figure out how, I am court-marshalling my squire for failure to maintain appearance standards while in uniform.

I seldom get to even notice the Animation or Graphics for most of my fluff pets ..They all seem to be on the same timer as my Tunare "Ball of Light" pet. *frown*The only thing I have noticed is that all pets seem to have lead shoes! 'Cause, no matter what run speed I am they can't keep up. .. Okay, I take that back about not noticing Animation issues .. I did notice this MALE Barbarian Enchanter (don't remember which) running around with his Shirt off and a "Naked" High Elf Female Persona running after him! ("naked" = topless with those black "[Removed for Content]&quot<img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />. I thought that was rather odd. Guess he felt more feminine that day ..
