Haurchefant Minion!

So, Yoshi said they would try to get this added for 3.1, but there was no mention of it! Only the portrait... which is great, but it's no minion.

Is it still being worked on? Will it just be added later?

they dont have to announce every unimportant thing they'll implement...

who cares about a single minion when everyone is waiting for content

Don't be so mean >< its a good question. I want the minion too! XD <3 But at least with the portrait we do know they are thinking about even our smallest of wants! lol

That portrait is nice though. My FC is going to make a shrine to our bestest hot-chocolate sleepover bro. :3

They announced an "unimportant" portrait, so.... ?????????

Can I not care about a minion as well as content? Is there a limited amount of "caring" that must all go to new content, and it's impossible to care about other stuff too?

It was a highly requested item after HW came out, a LOT of people wanted it. If you don't care then good for you, and feel free to ignore the thread.

Even if they don't intend to hold things back, I doubt they ever really announce and show of everything in live letters. And in this case in particular - there is a FATE in Hiroshima on 25 October, I guess with another live letter, so of course they'd still want to have things to reveal there. For now, just bet patient.

<3 I want to like more then once! XD I care.. I want my minion :( lol

It'd be a shame if they were doing the portrait as a "cheap" way to try and satisfy people instead of making a minion. "Cheap" meaning that making a flat image is far less work than making a moving, potentially interactive minion.
The only solution is to keep pressing them about the minion, I guess.

I hope if they do make a Haurchefant minion, it does something special if you smile at it.

Well, they promised both a minion and a portrait. I suppose they were able to make the portrait fast enough to show it at TGS.

They don't really announce EVERY SINGLE item that will be in a patch prior to the prelim patch notes.

Patience, dear friends. I am certain our Haurchefant minion will be coming!

Decent content first, gimmicky extra's second. To clarify: Am I against getting Haurchesexual chocolate minion? No, but now, with 3.1 all the way in November, SE should be thinking more about real content instead of minor glamour items.

Careful, spoiler

As long as it's not "playing dead" when you smile on it... ;_;

I agree with you Q_Q was sad to see no new information about his minion, hopefully they will give more infos about it at the Hiroshima fate..They already showed a sketch about the minion recently so its something they are working on but at the same time they said they don't know if its ready for 3.1 :( Really hope that they manage to include it.

The Haurchefant Minion as well as a painting is confirmed in the patch notes! so ready your tomes of law and pennies!
It also seems like we're getting a Fortemps shield!

BUT... BUT

MY LORD OF VERMILLION CONTENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY WIND UP MAIN NPC WIND UP ARMY!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!



PSA: Minions are Content, especially when a sizable chunk of content revolves around them.


Also:

Wind-up Haurchefaunt Minions What isn't dead (or is recreated in a goldsmith's workshop) can never die.

Use item to acquire the wind-up Haurchefaunt minion.

Its there


My Army is saved.

Praise Halone. I need some Hot Cocoa

It's all about the glamour!

I hope the minion is from a quest, but didnt they add important npc minion in the Cash Store aswell? It is possible that the minion can only be bought there.

the minion is mentioned in the full patch notes but no mention of how to get it as of yet
