Summoning - What are you hoping for?

jake the cat · **Posted:** March 17th, 2008, 5:37 am

What are you hoping for (or fearing) in the next release for summoning?

For me, it's this:
HOPE
1) Some new familiars that can fight in non-multicombat areas.
2) An "auto-renew" so I don't have to sweat the expiration clock so much.

FEAR
1) That familiars will become like weapons or armour; there will be hundreds of choices but i'll only ever use a small handfull.

I left off some ideas because I don't expect them to mess with the leveling aspect at all. For example, balancing the shard count for green charm experience. Or, making charms tradeable.

My hopes and fewars include yours and.. A list.
HOPES:
1. The new Familiars will be even more helpful in other skills, such as a animal that can covert oak logs to planks.
2. Gold Tokens and other Tokens will be easier to drop, and perhaps from certain monsters.

FEARS:
1. With the new familiars and their abilites, make the market prices plummet for some objects, and rise for others.

And an added category:
KNOW:
1. It will make a new trend of calling people noobs with Familiars.

Debate please.

HOPES:

- An easier method of training it
- Some really useful summons
- More pet interactivity (and conversations)
- Summon-fan clothing (dress up like your favorite summon???)
- Spirit Dragons - enough said
- Summon fighting assisting in single-combat areas

FEARS:

- Another delay
- New colored charms
- Something crazier then the 'evil turnip'
- Even more obscure item requirements then tortoise shells and cockatrice eggs (King Black Dragon heads, maybe?)

When summoning came out, I didn't train it much mainly because of the price and the distance you had to walk. One thing I am hoping for is a cheaper more effective way to train it and the familiars to be way more helpful than they already are.
