I have the ironfrog minion out all the time. Doesn't get in the way like flying ones sometimes do, and it matches my favorite mount.

So far it's my Cactuar Cutting.
I'd like to see more minions from FF monsters in general instead of random real world animals -

SE should release a Blow Fly Swarm minion for the play dead RPrs.
-
10-03-2023, 04:45 PMUkcsAliasI would like an emote so you can take the same stance as that cutting.Quote:

There was a cactuar emote from the Make It Rain event a couple of years ago that lets you do Senor Sabotender's little pose and spin, although you don't stay in the pose afterwards.

10-04-2023, 01:36 PMLocal_Custardoh man... I might need to look into obtaining this minion. I am already grinding for a pedegree 9 chocobo to race with- might as well. Especially for such great eyes!Quote:

Morpho~ And really just about any minion that sits/stands or holds onto a Lala's head; it's really cute

Windup Nanamo. It's adorable how she climbs up you to sit on your shoulder. I am fond of all the shoulder sitting minions in general.
-
10-05-2023, 08:46 AMLocal_Custardoh wow, I may buy it! Well, when I have the funds again^^Quote:

Well, that and I enjoy sitting and listening to what people think up for their characters even if I sometimes run out things to say myself! :3
I hold this game super dearly even with all of its flaws- it is still by far one of the best games I have played to date. I love my character so so much... so it warms my heart to hear the love people have for their character(s) even if it is more subtle.
aw look at it! I might need to get myself that minion sometime. Something about it is super adorableQuote:

Managed to obtain Wind-up Golbez from the new Dungeon - and I love having him charging along behind me.... or standing somewhat mini-menacingly infront of me...

zephyrous zabuton , nothing better then sharing your pillow with your lalafell friend while listening to a bard
-
10-05-2023, 11:38 PMRetryWhen you finally get it, just use /beckon on it to force the climb animation. It works with many other minions as well like Nutkins, Red Panda, Wind-up Succubus, etc.Quote:

Then again, most minions that chill on your head as a lala are.. -
10-06-2023, 12:52 AMLocal_Custardthat sounds super funny! A tiny knight-like being running as fast as its little legs can carry it while you run,,, amazingQuote:

Maybe not my absolute favorite, but my WoL uses the name Squirrel as a nod to an ancient forum handle. And one of the first minions I got back when I hadn't finished ARR was a nutkin drop from a PotD coffer. It was one of the first minions that would crawl up to sit on my shoulder, it fit my theme, and it was adorable and had a cute idle animation. Even if nowadays I cycle through favorite NPC minions like Ysayle, FSH related minions (It took close to 200 attempts to get that bucket so it's my companion during Legendary Fish grinds), and other cute animal minions like the Siamese cat and Silkie, the nutkin was the first.

10-06-2023, 04:27 PMCarin-EriAgree - she's mega-cute!Quote:

My favourite minions are catgirls. xD
No, i like the Mini-Venat and the Mini-Koala minions.

Anima. Not Wind-up Anima, mind. The little fairy-like puppet your Anima Weapon's soul can possess. After everything you go through to get it to its finished state, the thing is practically a kid. Your kid. Seems almost cruel to have it rot at the bottom of the armory chest.
-
10-09-2023, 02:42 AMLocal_Custardall of these are good choices. I love the cat minions in this game- they are very cute. Took a look at the bucket minion and I cannot help but wonder how that fish survives- very small area for a goldfish. Then again, the description implies that fish is temporary so I can assume every time it is summoned a new goldfish is inside it. I kind of want it. Maybe next time I fish I'll go for it.Quote:

10-12-2023, 07:13 AMEnkidohNot that I am aware of (but then I've never seen two people with the Wind up Helios and another 'Ancient' minion out together, so I haven't been able to check this).Quote:

It might have required too much time to have to program extra scripting to the minions to handle this so they probably dropped adding such animations long ago (those minions are all old - pre-HW in fact).
Which is a shame, as it was fun to see. -

Wind-up Nanamo is now my favorite. Her climbing up me and hanging out on my shoulder is just too cute.
-
10-12-2023, 09:46 AMTheMightyMolluskThe moogle minions from Eternal Bond ceremonies will gather in circles and dance. I've seen up to four grouping up.Quote:

Of course, these are also older minions. -
10-12-2023, 09:53 AMBrightamethyst
Wind-up Dragonet. It's the closest I can get to my FFXI wyvern.
-
10-12-2023, 10:00 AMVahlnir
Wind-up Bahamut for me. A tiny Bahamut running/hopping around with a Dalamud eggshell on its head is the best thing ever.

I never cared for minions much. But I do S rank hunt attempts so I guess I'll put my little wee ea minion since I get to do a spawn attempt with friends.

My favorite minion is The Shalloweye I’ve had it for a very long time, but it now resides on my island.
Currently I’ve been using minions based on my role or outfit. When I’m on my main, Machinist, I use Toy Alexander. When I’m dressed in all black, I use Cerberpup. When I’m on my island on my farmer outfit, I use one of the dog minions. -

Though Morpho is a regular for me...I have some other favorites....
1.) Odder Otter .... I was given one on the second char I started and he's always so cheeky....
2.) Moggle Minion - Never paid this one much attention until i realized they dance with others of their type.....
3.) Poro Roggo - A great froggo buddy....I only wish he could cast spells in fights...even if just for the looks.... -

The Starbird is by far my favorite. I just like the bird minions the most overall but Starbird is may favorite because of the color and tail.
