Another week, SE. Some of us are still waiting for an answer here.

But then again, given all the brainless decisions that has been coming out lately (see the massive outcry one the latest pre-nerf on the upcoming merited ws), I'm not surprised that you would kept your head in the sand.

Keep it there, you might not hear your customers' continuous outcry and complaints. But keep it there long enough, you'll wonder do you even have customers left over to even complaint anymore. If you think FF14 will be your savior, then you're dumber then dumb. I wonder how you would answer your next Share Holder Meeting @ your financial conference call when investors ask where has the money gone.

Well another week and it looks like SE still got its head stuck in the sand and not willing to come out and let us know what's going on.

Just a friendly bump to let SE knows that some of us do not give up easily.

Welcome back, Camata.

Hope you had a good holidays. Now, any chance that SE wants to clarify this issue?

2 more than the number of crows jugs we have, or crawlers, or pugils, or monkeys, or scorpions, or dhamels, or bats, or bees etc...

Why the hell would you ever want a bird, crawler, fish or scorp? Bee would be kinds worthless too.

Happy 2nd week in 2012.

Any chance SE will get their heads out of the sand pit anytime soon and come clean with us? Or you guys too busy fighting down fire from the VW loot system?

Either way, just a constant reminder to SE that some of us do not like to go away until we get a clarification from a company who is providing a service that we actually for whatever reason, still pays for.

Thank you for reading this Camata, I'm sure you're tired of reading my weekly posting.

Week #3 here, Camata.

Any chance that SE going to ever wake up and unstuck their head in places where the sun dont shine?

Anyway, here's looking forward to my next week's post.

Forget everything else, I want a Gnole. d<.< They're probably the coolest mob out there and could maybe finally give us a reliable MNK type pet? Technically they're a beastmen but they were never considered one of the main beastmen; rather just attack dogs for them for me. I don't even care if I would need to do some quest; since their now dead to use them; like working with the Tenshodo to work up some Voodoo to reanimate one to use; they could even be a bit expensive and come solely from whoever you do the quest for. I just want to use one ; ;

a more supers fluffies sheep! :{D

Week #4 of 2012, Camata,

When will SE give us an answer?

Week #5 of 2012, Camata,

Any chance SE going to take their heads out of the sand and answer us? or will they just nuke this thread as well like the mass bitching R/M/E trial 99 thread (and the thread that asked why that thread got nuked)?

I feel sorry for you Camata, working for a company that treats their customers like this.

Wow, I love bst threads but this was totally interesting for me. I feel a total BUST on SE part seeing that the winning vote for Scorpion came to pass(a long time ago). No Answer from the Communty Rep yet.

As for me, according to this chart, I believe the incentive to becoming a lv.99(master) Beastmaster(hence the name), it would require the job to handle all creatures to their full potential. If you don't have the right pet vs the mob( SO IT CAN INTIMIDATE), to strike at its weakness, it's a loosing battle(assuming the bst is soloing).

Why not categorize HQ jug-pets and common jug-pets? Like I said, I love bst, mine is at lv.50 and may master it someday.

Bst needs arcana type pets and dragon pets to fight demons and undead mobs. Think about it, Puppetmaster seems to get attention towards customizing its should get the same focus.

Bst lv.90-99 jug-pets should become like fellow NPCs who you can level-up, upgrade and power-up because you'll need a full arsenal with the little inventory space we all have already. I want to continue bst but seeing the treatment and lack of creativity SE is putting into it, no wonder there's bad mojo towards FFxi!




...




or else let a lv.99 bst charming skill work on all creatures. nuff said.


PS: I vote for Scorpion too! (tho it's too late, as it even matters)

Again, because it had a high nember of vote on one forum dose not mean it won.

Few things in reply to Psxpert2011. Beastmasters don't have access to mobs like arcana because it would (or atleast should) also give Beastmaster access to undead, perhaps even dragons and demons. For the most part if we look at the link here... http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/index.p...=Creatures-jpg ...beastmaster get pets of the top 2 categories of the chart.

Although I disagree with beastmasters being able to get arcana I do agree that they should have access to decent pets of all the types within the top 2 categories of the chart. From my knowledge bst has, x3 Beast, x2 Lizard, x1 Vermin, x2 Plantoid, x2 Amorph, x2 Bird, and 0 Aquian (unless you count Slippery Silas...) as jugs that cap at 99. Being I'm still working on my beastmaster (which is level 90) and cant say from my own experience as to if these jugs are up to our standards but perhaps this can be discussed further so we can better work out what jug types we do need.

As for pets peing like fellow NPCs its an interesting thought but I'm not sure how it would work into the beastmaster job or how it would make beastmaster in comparison with other pet jobs. I know puppetmaster is supposed to have control over their pets in a way similar to what you stated.

-_- Drives me nuts having to dig through the japanese forum for info like this. Thanks for sharing the exact link. I do wish the dev team would share this info with us so we can comment that Dipper and Faithful are supposed to be thieves! Thief already gets a much higher treasure hunter bonus then these 2 pets. If they wanted to make Rangers have a higher treasure hunter they should actually GIVE ranger treasure hunter not reduce Dipper and Faithful's treasure hunter. Furthermore as pets that are supposed to be thieves they should have more treasure hunter then people subbing thief because the 2 pets happen to be thieves and us beastmaster are spending our call beast to call them thus keeping everything in check because we don't have treasure hunter full time.

Anyone wanna go post on the japanese forum? :D

They just posted that last night. Camate will probably have it translated and posted in this thread by 3:00pm pst today.

Also, there was no digging involved. If you hit the main dev tracker link, it shows the dev tracker for all the language forums.

I'm really sure the community rep isn't much at liberty to ask, receive an answer and report back to the forums as well as he/she please. Not so much as working with but working for SE- seeing that PR still has issues, still they control the information that leave their office.

They may never reply for they think that they don't owe us anything. Anything they may say can be use against them in the "court of lols".

Yup but I can post here and keep asking until they either:
1. Give us an answer
2. Ban me
3. Close the forum

After looking over each and every one of your posts, it's a super super close call between:

-Ruszor
-Slime

Please vote on one or the other and let's see which pet comes out on top :)

Close contenders are below:
-Hippogryph
-Karkinos
-Hanuman

Unfortunately I can't really say at the moment what pet will do what, but assume that as long as it is not a special NM it will basically have the same properties as the original monster.

P.S.: If I see someone vote for more than one pet, I am going to take the one you list first by default, so please follow directions :) Thank you.

Based on numerous discussions, we have decided to implement the following pets along with the new level cap of 99.

Pets that we have been planning all along
Adamantoise
Attachment 884
*The smaller type from Abyssea. Don't worry, they won't cause the ground to rumble non-stop!

Apkallu
Attachment 885
　
And... based on your feedback!
Hippogryph
Attachment 886

We will continue to reference your feedback when we consider adding more pets in the future. We hope you're all looking forward to the next round of pet additions once the cap is raised!

Also, please keep in mind that the dev. team needs to consider all aspects of potential implementation and therefore has to make the final call themselves.

Trust me when I say that your feedback is not a waste of time and you are not being ignored. I make sure that your opinions are properly conveyed to the development as best as I can and I continue to work with them, following up when necessary, to bring them updates and any new suggestions you have.

Or:

SirCamate or Bayohne dude,

Why did you even begin to post if it didn't make a difference. Seeing that you work for SE and is afraid of getting fired(which I don't know would be legal), your are our "community rep", act like one! Stop being a puppet and posting just to safe face for SE, it's pathetic excuse for Public Relations of any company( as in all other companies will seem to display the same behavior).

Get off your lazy ass, open you note-pad, open your mouth, send an e-mail, exercise your right to free speech and grill SE and the dev team! Come back here and post once you've completed you mission! Dismissed soldier!!

Week #7.

Good morning Camate,

Any change of heart from SE regarding this issue? Or SE is trying to figure out where all the rage from their playerbase are coming from regarding the latest failedupdate?

Either way, just a reminder that some of us are still here waiting and actually expecting an answer @ some point in time.

Much cool-down period...

_Maybe you should try a subtle approach and let this one slide. Start a new thread and suggest new Bst pet/ abilities or something. Let this one go but keep an eye on it as reference.

If this is Square Enix's PR method, let it haunt them while the community stays cool about it. A game's a game and it's their show. If you don't hold any grudges then move forward and enjoy Final Fantasy playing with your friends.

ok I might be a bit late but...
what about a lovely Poroggo pet?
with a cute purple hat?
(*°∀°)=3

Where is our callable Chocobo ? , the bst job quest starts with a beastmaster and his chocobo.

To be honest i wouldnt mind if it was a special quest at 99 to gain acces to chocobo of color and name of own choice ( or just deliver raised chocobo certificate for ur own color raised pet)
Should just have em give u a Call chocobo command that shares timer with call pet, but that uses the ordinary ghysela greens each time u use it.

And make the pet a bst job so it has all monster terror corelations instead of bird only.
It wiould be uniqe as i belive no beast beastmasters get a chocobo.

Posible Tp moves could be : Beak rush , a 3-5 attack with chocobo beak.
Chocobo Stampeed , ur chocobo calls local chocobo to join in a stampeed on mob.
Terror Kweeh! , a quick short lasting terror move just like bst main terror.
Feather barrier , ( same as Roc's do ) increase evasion.
Battle Kweeh! , self Buff, adds 25% haste/ 15% DA for next 3 min on chocobo.

And to further boost the chocobo u would get a few special Pet ability's in command line when chocobo is called.

Treasure dig : does the same as u can do on mounted chocobo dig for treasure at coste of 1 ghysela green pr use.

Berserk chocobo stance : Turns chocobo into an attacker pet reducing defence but increasing Str/attack + adds 10% haste/10% DA / Store tp +25.

Knight chocobo stance : Turns chocobo into a tank, reducing attack but increasing Vit/defence + adds -25% Damage Taken. / Light spikes / Evasion +25

And a special Pet ability only usable under effect of 2 hour.
Feral link : adds any buff u have onto pet + stats from your gear as worn ,effect last 30 min or until familiair wears
This special ability would be unlocked with chocobo quest but be usable with all call beasts.

The chocobo should get 9999HP and all standard Bst JT and as a bonous there should be a pet trainer u can give war paint and beak armour to buff ur chocobo's looks so it can look armoured. ( this should be for looks only though )

i mean come on , we all want a chocobo as pet ^^ when we think about it and making it the bst equivilant of merit spell/relic pet. just dont make it insainly imposible to attain, just make it a good quest with a fun story.

They're Beastmen I think, and I'm not sure we'd do very will with a caster type pet. We're just not built for it. If they did add a Poroggo it'd just be a higher level version of the useless toad they already gave us.

I'd still rather have the scorpion. For the life of me I'd love to know why the devs didn't make us one. If we can't have it at least tell us why with something other than "balance."

Hello Camate,

Just to let you know some of us still waiting for that clarifications from SE.

As you may all know, Slippery Silas is the single best pet in the game. But SE is looking to make it more accessible by having NPCs sell it in addition to the recipe as mentioned here:

Now, I hate to add on to SE's long workload but I would like to have a slightly reskinned and renamed version of Slippery Silas that at the least lasts longer that can be produced from a HQ version of the Wormy Broth recipe. I know this will take a lot of work to do and take a lot of... what's that dat miners? There is a reskinned version of the common frog?

Wow SE, this frog looks so cool! Please add this as a HQ version of Slippery Silas.

This really isn't helpful. Knowing SE they'll take this seriously and actually spend development cycles on it rather than produce something useful.

/sigh If I wanted a "mascot" pet I would have played PUP. Not only is it a cute little robot that can dance and emote, it can actually do stuff... a lot of stuff!

Maybe SE wants to get in on the vanity pet market? I'm pretty sure this isn't how it works.
