This may have been discussed or answered somewhere else. If so, I apologize. I figured a post would be the quickest way to get an answer. Question: will the Bluppity pets be available without purchasing a Founder Pack? If so, how? If not, are the Founder Packs still available? What is the function of the Bluppity pets - do they help in combat? I watched the video, but it didn't reeeaaaaaally provide too much info. :P

 

Thanks.

The Bluppity pet is only available via the founder pack.  The only way to get it after release is buying from someone who has a founder pack and never used it (the 'learn' spell is unbound).  Hard to be certain, but I wouldn't be surprised if the price is quite high, especially after the game is live for a year or more.

 

Founder packs will be available until a couple of weeks before release (fortunately, as I haven't bought mine yet).  There will be an announcement before HCS stops selling the packs.

 

As of now, pets are purely cosmetic.  They serve no actual purpose.  There was some discussion about making the pets usable in battle.  I believe the decision was 'no', but don't quote me on that.

Deimos, mage

Thangbrand, warsin (Mostly on vacation)

Thank you.

 

I read up on the founder packs via the thread on the message board here, but hadn't found anything about the viability of pets in combat. So, that clears that question up. Kind of makes me want a Founders Pack and pet a little less. Vanity... You're so vain, you probably think this post is about you.
