| What pet would you like? A beastmaster survey! 
Howdy!
After talking to the development team, it seems like they are down to add a familiar from the below list to go along with the level cap increase to 99. (This is separate from the pets they are already planning to add!)
We’d like to hear from all of you which one you’d like to see implemented
In regards to monsters not listed above, there are many which would take a bit of time to implement, so it seems difficult to get them in right away.
For example, large monsters rumble the ground when they walk, so there would be a need to address those kinds of things.
Since of course Behemoth and the four gods are quite popular, as we mentioned in the job concepts briefly, we would like to look into implementing these as a special type of pet similar to the avatars Odin/Alexander.
Also, similar to Flans, the back story is pretty complicated (※) so we would need to make adjustments to make it fit the story.
■Other feedback
Quote: Make the HQ familiars NMs or have different graphics.
Quote: Would like smaller size pets of large monsters.
Quote: Add jugs that call a random pet each time.
Quote: Add pets that can only be called while equipping Guttler.
※Some of you may have caught on to this when seeing the blue mage artifact quest “Omens” or even for the job introduction text, but Flans are essentially test subjects that could not become blue mages. There are some methods for avoiding this like saying that they were man-made Flans based on the original, so surely we can make something happen. |
You may answer here, but I would encourage you to respond on the official forums ( linky to topic), but you may respond here. I will try my best to post a summary of every suggestion made in this topic to post on the official forums (I'll put your name with your suggestion, unless you would like to remain nameless I can do that too :P).
I'll link the options to their gamerescape page so you can see what it is and what moves they typically do to help you.

It would probably be a bug type I would imagine, since that fits into the story with the original relic holder. The mithra that used it was fond of bugs. Maybe the new preying mantis mob from voidwatch but smaller =p

Sounds pointless seeing how 97.9% (making up % here) wouldn't be able to summon it...that's like saying "here have atomos but nope need a nivana first" :/

Hippogryph. No question about it. Not only is it a Thief type mob with all the advantages that brings (Think Yuly), but it would also be the only bird ecosystem jug available to beastmasters.
Plus, their TP move set is pretty decent. While Yuly's Acc Down ability might still provide the best Evasion options, the Hippo has some decent attacking abilities in it's arsenal.
I have a feeling if they gave us a slime, it'd actually be a clot, and still take full physical damage.

I'm personally happy that they consider the storyline when they make changes like this.

My thoughts on the matter, nothing in the given list is really exciting for me. What I would like to see
Gnole / Dhalmel / Uragnite
All with a low cost Charge on their healing TP moves
Bat Trio
Jet Steam 1 Charge
Wamoura
Erratic Flutter 3 Charges
Exuvation 1 or 2 Charges
one other TP move
Worm (Regular worm : Land Worm)
Full Force Blow - 2 Charges
Sound Vac - 1 Charge
Gastric Bomb - 3 Charges
Sandspin - 3 Charges
---

I would love a cute little Orobon following me around! I'm kind of disappointed that Karkinos is in the list - I remember a while back there was a picture of a Karkinos jug pet that we were all excited to see being added, I guess this was scrapped?
But yeah, Orobon or Scorpion preaze. So cute and such fun TP moves!
