    I mean just tally up the total votes and implement them based on popularity. For instance, petA received the most votes overall, petb received the second most, and petC received the third most votes, hence implement those three. Also, a brief description of what each pet would receive; something like this:

    -Scorpion: Death scissors, sharp strike, wild rage, cold breathe, numbing breathe, critical bite, venom sting.

    -Ram: Great Bleat, rumble, berserk, ram charge.

    -Morbol: Bad breathe, impale, vampric lash, drain whip, sweet breathe, vampric whip.

    -Wivre: Boiling Blood, demoralizing roar, granite hide, clobber, battle horn, crippling slam.

    -Marid: (Spawns a chigoe upon ws, which can be killed) Proboscis shower, flailing trunk, onrush, barrier tusk, stampede.

    -Opo-opo: Claw storm, magic fruit, eye scratch, vicious claw, stone throw, blank gaze, spinning claw.

    -Gnat: Bombilation, cimincine discharge, emtetic discharge.

    -Wamoura: Erratic flutter, exuviation, proboscis, magma fan, fire break, erosion dust.

    -Antilion: Sandpit, sand blast, venom spray, mandibular bite, gravitic horn, quake blast.

    -Roc: Giga scream, feather barrier, deadly dive, blind vortex, dread wind.

    It is somewhat discouraging when a pet has a few of the beneficial/damaging moves removed hence are not what we wanted.

    Also, the pet poll thread received a large amount of responses, I am pretty sure more bst would show up if they conducted a detailed pet poll. However, I did lol @your 4-5 NA bst comment, it is pretty dead on the bst forums, lol. You usually do not see many bst until a dev response; i guess the players feel "why even bother posting." If a second poll were conducted more bst would participate because the developers are allowing them to choose something for the job they play.

    Yea, it would be fun to have another pet poll^^ the last one produced a superb pet. A new one will probably mend the old wounds pertaining to the last poll. I just want one more opportunity to pick our pets, the community will surely pick 3-4 solid pets (if they were a batch). Everyone appeared to get a kick out of the last poll based on the number of responses, although their pet did not win. Falcorr was solid though, can't lie. Also, feelings may not be hurt if the poll had multiple pets to choose from. For instance, the hippo won last year correct? I believe the scorpion and ruszor were pulling in close as well, therefore these three would have been implemented thus the whole scorpion fiasco would have never happened. You cannot please everyone, I am a reasonable guy, I mean, who could argue with a solid pet? I would be happy with any pet on that list (But i would perfer the ram or scorpion, lol).

    Yeah I'd love a poll of monsters + move suggestions. So many I'd like especially after having played monstrosity and playing with those moves

    I know right? lol, MON got me all hyped up now.

    Not sure if they will do another poll though; but I am sure the majority of the bst community will get a kick out of it. The last pet a poll produced an extremely useful jug; he was fairly unique as well ( Fantod quadruple damage was pretty neat). ppl were upset with the last one, but falcorr was awesome and I am sure bst may be over that, thus would gladly participate. Not sure if a dev will respond to this thread; i believe they are working to get the pet food up and going first and foremost. I think a sizable amount of acc plus a solid pet would do the trick. I would love a pet with a attack boost move, berserk > ram charge or sharp strike > death scissors^^

    I am a grown man, not gonna throw a fit if there are no plans for another pet poll, just want to know if there were any plans for another one. The last one was awesome, solid list to choose from.

    yeah... we can't even get them to put Baleful Gaze on a lizard, I doubt we'd get any good attacks on such pets.

    still, doesn't hurt to ask.

    I would totally adore my own personal Mothra.
    Also, it'd be great if Monstrosity somehow tied into this, like being able to buy jugs of MONs you've built, with infamy. The grind just seems kind of pointless right now.
    I haven't played BST in ages though. There's nothing I can think of that BST can do that one of my other jobs can't do just as well or better.

    I agree, why should we just stand pat and accept mediocrity? Honestly, I could deal with the ready meter as opposed to a tp bar; I am a reasonable guy; would love another poll though.

    SE, are there any plans for another bst jug poll? Any news on upcoming jugs?

    Bumping, I am under the impression that a pet poll is out of the question, I aint trippin^^ but I do have a serious question for the devs. Why is our jug selection so "Meh" as it pertains to dd capabilities? Why do you guys avoid releasing a scorpion jug? Not a rant, but a serious question; I am interested^^ Is there a reason? Hard to implement? After all of these years, no scorpion whom will be our go to dd pet. How about a Opo-opo? I just want to know why these jugs have never seen the light of day and monsters from new eras/expansions were released 11 years later (Some were even un-charmable, but Opo and scorps are charmable XD), but scorps and opo were left out. Why is that? Are they being considered for the next batch? These two along with any combo of random jugs would be awesome^^ Scorpions and Opo-opo are the best dd monsters out there. I loved leveling up in the jungle soloing tougher mobs with Opo, boy those little things were tough^^ and we all know scorpions are the bomb, sharp strike and death scissors^^

    Please consider releasing these two guys for the next batch^^ Bst is called upon to dd (Sometimes, lol), these two are the best dd pets out there, but have have yet to be implemented.

    1) Bst, would you like to see a scorpion and Opo as two new pets from the next batch?

    2) Do you feel that they may have the highest dd potential as-well? I cannot think of any possible jug with a higher dps (Just eyeballin/speculation).

    3) And lastly, What is your ideal batch of four pets? (That appears to be the magic number based upon last update iirc). Mine would look something like this; Scorpion, Opo, Wivre (Pigmy), and Sandworm (Pigmy, need another amorph).

    BST is the job that got me interested in FFXI in the first place. Yet it's become so meh that I haven't played it in years. I'd certainly be interested in trying new jugs. Scorpion or peiste would be cool. And the moth. How about a bad-ass bat, or an undead dog even? Barring the undead family, they've put these in Monstrosity already, I don't see why they can't be jugs too.

    Honestly we need a Mantid, Cracklaw, Matamata, Acuex, and Snapweed jug. Every monster family covered, all useful and strong, and they're all adoulin themed when combined with the Raaz and Tulfaire we already have. Make, it happen SE.

    Honestly you screwed up when the 2000 plasm EACH jug summoned a crab and it wasn't a cracklaw.
