What new Jug Pets would you like to see 91-99?

I believe the red crabs he refers to just have a slight tint to them, and are RDMs instead of PLDs. I think the Crimson Knight Crabs in CoP zones is the model if you want to check them out.

This is awesome, but it's really hard to choose. ; ; <3

1. Slime (Been wanting a slime jug pet for ages - but only if they keep their melee resistance).
2. Hippogryph/Colibri to bridge the current Ecosystem gap.
3. Karkinos/Ruszor for our new, beefed up Aquans.
4. Scolopendrid/Hanuman as high-end DD pets.

I don't own a Guttler, but I think it would be awe-inspiring to see someone running around with a unique pet tied to that weapon. Make it happen! :D

{Thank you.}

Scorp would be nice as a DD, but I like they idea of a pet that can use dispel, that could be very handy and open up many nms to solo. That is if it doesn't get taken away from the Opo.

So bummed to see no Apkallu :( Penguins! Penguins a thousand times, penguins!

Although the idea of big pink Mandragora's seem fun :) Is that what Chloris would be?

Ruszors Scorpions Orobons and Chogoes would be sick.

"So bummed to see no Apkallu Penguins! Penguins a thousand times, penguins!"

Read what he said again. He said these are pets they are willing to put in, and do not include pets they are already implementing. Fyi, they already said Apkallu jug is on the way, along with the big turtle, so we are picking our last and final jug to 99.

Black antlion
Scorpian
opo-opo
chigoe

I want a moogle and a morbol to do my killing for me.

You know efts have dispel, right?

Slime but only if we get the resistance, otherwise another one like the Ladybug with a resistance to a different element.

•slime! (as long as it keeps its blunt, piercing,slashing resistance)
•Karkinos (Crab)
•Hippogryph (would be sweet to have a petrify that doesn't suck!)

I have to admit, i voted toad purely for aesthetic reasons. I think all bsts's have a favorite sentimental jug they use even though it cant fight well. Mine is Keeneared Steffi, shes not even max lvl but i use her to farm. However i also voted Scolopendrid because with death scissors it might replace nazuna for dmg. I just hope it wouldn't be a big model, i never use giant pets because they get in the way and are usually slower. I know alot of ppl want stuff like rams and marids, but i think it would get annoying for a pt of bsts with 6 marids stepping all over everything lol. I do like the idea of big pets in smaller form though. I'm still hoping for Dhalmel jugs... I used to love charming them for their healing breeze TP move.

• Colibri [but it has to be named something like "Hungry Howard" D: ]
• Hippogryph
• Karkinos (Crab) [as long as it stays big. giant crab pet = #1 best]
• Orobon
• Crawler
• Rafflesia
• Ruszor

On behalf of a friend who can't sign up here for some payment-related reasons, I submit this list :D

1. Slime (obviously!)
2. Scorpion (Death Scissors is, if nothing else, the coolest TP move to see)
3. Ruszor
4. Bugard
5. Chigoe (depending on how interestingly it is implemented)

Loving this poll, thank you!

This is where SE is failing at BST.

Ive been playing BST for longer than this game has been out in NA, and SE just has no idea which direction theyre taking the job.

Jug pets are not BSTs main forte, Charm is. Adding new Jugs (worthwhile even)? Ok, thats cool. Making BST suck less in PTs by giving them access to heavy DD gear? Awesome. But why BST cant use their staple JA in Abyssea (or even back in Sea days) is beyond idiocy.

The charm mechanics really need to be redefined.

-I should be able to charm any current charmable family mob any charm them anywhere, firstly.
-SE should expand the range of charmable mobs. Goldfish in Sea, etc. Add some lvl 99 trait that lets you Charm undead, a JA that lets me charm Arcana, or something along those lines.
-I should be able to charm IT mobs, and be able to hold them for more than 1 minute. Make charming purposeful again by increasing Charm+ duration significantly.

Jugs were horrible a couple of years ago; low defense and would only last 30 mins. Now they take more hits and have a longer duration, which is great, but thats not what BST want.

The allure of BST was that they could control beasts. Why should I expend gil to buy a alchemistic pet, when I have a useful JA that can claim a mob right next to me?

However thats really hard to do when you cant claim ANY mob where current content has been for the last few years.

Fix Charm. Screw Jugs.

My votes:
1. Slime
2. Ruszor
3. Orobon
4. Hippogryph
5. Scolopendrid (Scorpion)
6. Karkinos (Crab)

I want them all lol. ;o;

1. Slime
2. Hippogryph
3. Ruszor

This what i like to see
Slime Would be very cool have
Chigoe
Scolopendrid
Karkinos
Karakul
Ruszor

One of the Crabs would be nice for nostalgia sake. However, as a Guttler holder, I am more interested in what unique pet(s) will be available.

If you implemented toads, you could give them special "natural" characteristics to make up for them not having any abilities.

Examples: Inherent high auto regen, high evasion, inherent damage taken reduction, naturally high critical hit and/or double attack rate, magic defense bonus, some sort of additional effect on melee hits, etc.

think this would cater to a lot of the players out there ;>.>

what about puk?

why didnt SE just set up a poll ?? they did a poll for ps2... why not this :)

To many people don't play bst! So it wouldn't apply to them.

1) Orobon
2) Ruszor
3) Karkinos

We need aquans at the very least for killer instinct. And I miss having a crab, but two previously uncharmable pets beat nostalgia.

4) Hanuman
An
Opo-Opo because Magic Fruit should be an upgraded Wild carrot, and Opo Opos are just nasty to fight against, so having one of our own would turn the tables. Also the BST in the artifact armor storyline had one.

5) Scolopendrid
Scorpions have always been so cool, but they were very rarely usable until long after you were done with a zone.

Also, on the Guttler Unique pet front, my vote goes for Chocobo. A Chocobo got me into BST, a Chocobo should take me out.

This is really hard to answer, without knowing exactly what each critter was going to be capable of. On top of that, if it's going to be our one and only Lv99 jug, I'd want it to be something extra-special and not a mob type we've ever had before. I'm torn between just throwing out my personal favorite of the bunch and putting a vote behind something that's brutal in the wild in the hope that it doesn't get nerfed. When you mention NMs, are you saying that we'd be getting something that shared their abilities, or is it just for the sake of mob size and appearance?

Of course, I'd like to see all these jugs... except for the mandies, we've got far too many of those already. Please, no more mandy jugs at any level. One thing I would very much like to see is any further jugs coming out having elemental damage reductions like Yuly, so we'll have a pet to counter each type.

Anyway, here's a sort of conditional list.
• Colibri - From a pure cosmetic/favorite standpoint, my first choice. I'd love having Feather Tickle and Pecking Flurry handy, too. Maybe even give it a special version of Snatch Morsel that operates like Aura Steal, since the mobs have no morsels to snatch. I... can't deny though that other options would have more combat capability.
• Chigoe - Evil, bouncing, disease-ridden death. I'm more interested in these just because I think they're awesome than for any massive utility.
• Scolopendrid - Definitely a solid choice either way. Can't say much that won't parrot everyone else. And go with the gold type. My only regret would be that I don't think they're really all that neat as a critter.
• Slime - I'm actually kinda on the fence with this one. I've always wanted a slime, and do still want one, though tanking in general has gotten much easier for BST. I wouldn't sneeze at the extra damage reduction, but it's not like it's a gaping void I've no way to fill anymore.
• Rafflesia - Granted I don't expect any kind of charm effect. It's too bad we can't already use these, they're nifty. Have you guys ever considered changing the Ochus in the Rolanberry Fields to this mob type? These are what Ochus have always been in the other Final Fantasy games, the devs at the time just used Malboros since Raffles didn't exist yet.
• Hanuman (Opo-opo) - Would absolutely need to keep the NM's ensilence and other crazy traits. If it's just a plain Opo that's slightly bigger than others, no thanks.
• Ruszor - Very nice, should the TP moves and traits go through unhindered. It also fits in with my desire for the final jug to be something really out there.


If you felt like putting some extra caffeine in the dev team's food, maybe get them to make the final pet be whatever, but using a new model with a little colibri riding on it's back? The mob would be it's proper type and have the appropriate TP moves and abilities, but the idea is that the colibri is controlling it and working for you? It'd only be wallpaper of sorts, but it would make the pet extremely unique, and have the bonus of giving me my colibri while still being whatever everyone else desired for a functional pet. XD

I do need to narrow all that down though so:
If the Ruszor keeps all it's powers, first choice.
Scorpion if the Ruszor would get nerfed.
And squeeze in a colibri somewhere before 99 if you can.

Ruszor please

Given no clues on what adjustments would be made to jugs to make them balanced in the hands of a PC, the safest bet is on Scorpions since (aside from poison immunity) they have the best abilities/traits which SE would not nerf.

Pets I definitely Do Not Want To See!
Colibri
More Mandies
More Fungars
More Sheeps
More Beetles
More Crabs
Rafflesia
Slime
Antlion
Crawler
Hecteyes

There are pets id rather see like all the ones i meantioned on page 14 but why wouldnt you want to see a slime? It's been bsts favorite lvling pet since time began.

Chance at turning into a prince?

Before choosing what jug you want, keep in mind what jugs we are getting from 96-99.

We are getting a

Turtle - PLD type mob, so asking for another tanking jug like a crab seems a waste.
Apkallua - No idea what type of mob this would be, DD? Situational. I just cant see a penguin kicking ass.
??? - This is the third and I believe final jug they are asking the Bst community want we want.

We need A DD jug, that is why I choose Scorp. Jug pets tp moves suck for dmg, this guy may actually give us some real dmg tp moves.

My top 5 wanted pets from the list.

1. Scolopendrid: Would make a great DD pet, which would be very welcome. Also looks great with the gold, while normal scorpion would be liked, this one takes the cake.
2. Hippogryph: Pretty badass pet, though I hope it gets a decent DD move.
3. Hecteyes: As long as it can do some magic this adds a lot to bst, for killing things that resist physical.
4. Ruszor: Possible DD pet.
5. Orobon: Fish DD pet could be a nice addition.

In this order. I want the Scolopendrid most of all, by far. Asside from a wyrm this is probably my dream jug pet. Thanks for allowing us to do this, Camate!

Top 5 :

- Slime : I wanted them since I charmed my very first one ! The ultimate tank jug !
- Scorpions / Scolopendrid : Death Scissors *.*
- Hippogryphs or Colibris : I can't decide which one I prefer (each has bonus and malus) but I think it'll be cool to have a bird-jug.
- Opo-opo : Good DD, good healing, dispel... Yeah, it can be nice
- Ruzsors

Its between slime,scolopendrid, ruszor, orobon, and opo-opo. We've asked for a slime jug for so long now, but those other jugs would a welcomed addition as well.

Hippogryph or Orobon because they look so cool!

i would love
1: Hippogryph, as long as it is as good or better tank than yuly.
2: Ruszor, as long as it hits as hard or harder than Nazuna and its Pet commands hit for 1k or more on mobs that matter.
3: Slime, as long as it is as good as the ones i used to charm back in the solo days, it should be able to take hits for days and have hard hitting attacks and commands.
would love for it to have: Fluid Toss, Fluid Spread, Dissolve, and Mucus Spread.
