HoloPets Ideas,Improvement,etc!
Umm ... post away!
Re: HoloPets Ideas,Improvement,etc!
we need to be able to see the item equiped makes the interface appear clunky compared to other parts of the game
Holopets i would love to see is one that ups OL.. with the low level mobs we are fighting just getting to level 20 is a pain and now level 30 for those high level awards....
and all i want for christmas is a Reindeer Holopet oh yea...
But over all a great new addition to the game...

Mutant Orange Ideas
Just so you all know, when I say an ending is dependent on another ending, it means that they can't both happen on the same adventure. If they are independent, they can both happen on the same adventure. This is also true if I use it for things other than endings of an adventure.
I expect that most of this content will never see the light of day. It is written so that the dev team can pick and choose between things that have already been written, making it easier on them.

Re: HoloPets Ideas,Improvement,etc!
Can the HoloPets equipment be shown when you're clicking on somebody's C.A.G.E? I would like to see that happen.

Re: HoloPets Ideas,Improvement,etc!
Yes on both. I've just added the C.A.G.E. to the chat right-click menu in chat (v0.7.12), but the other one is a slightly longer task and will have to wait until I have more time.
Re: HoloPets Ideas,Improvement,etc!
So a few people asked me what i thought a Reindeer Holopet would do so here it is.....
since its a game all about time and that is what reindeer do make Santa's day kinda easier and faster so would the holopet
1. it would have in effect similar to the march hat in (the other game) where it could prevent the lose of a turn
2. this is what i think could give this holopet a very original slant is that if the Reindeer is your active holopet it would give bonus turns at rollover based on its intensity maybe 1 turn for every 5 to 10 levels of intensity (depending on what plans Devs have for buffing potential of Holopets later in the game) don't want to make it to powerful
3. maybe a minor attack ability when it is active (physical like a kick) or cold breath ability... or other type of skill
one i though of was there would be a chance that the fact you have a Reindeer traveling with you that the attacking Monster becomes stunned in sure amazement... IDK just in idea
4. the final ability of the Reindeer would be that no matter how hard you tried it could not be your active holopet on Christmas eve for it has to go work for Santa Claus
and that is my idea

It could have a glowing nose ability that makes the monster easier to hit because you can see it better.

No no, she said lasers...not "lasers". There's a big difference.

Hopefully she still meant the dangerous type of lasers, unlike the ones I worked with for my thesis.
