Just got my Wind up Ifrit, a little dissapointed. (Missing Features?)

http://i.imgur.com/7Z6TVBC.jpg
Don't get me wrong, he's still probably my favourite minion in the game by far but I was expecting a little more considering it took me just under a month to get the little bugger. I'd been told he's supposed to climb up onto your character like Midgardsommer/Wind Up Succubus etc, or do something when you pet him or another action but all he does is sit at your feet and occasionally 'bark'

Is it a bug and he actually is supposed to have more actions or were they removed/never even planned in the first place?

I don't know if it'll help, but I found on Reddit if you equip the "Mammeteer" title then Wind-Up minions gain extra animations like responding to /handover and /pet. Maybe it'll give other options too? :)

He's so cute! I feel that SE has been doing so well with making the new minions interactable that I almost feel like you must be missing something. Maybe yours broke :P

I tried changing my title to Mammeteer and oddly enough all it seemed to do was change his type to Independent, so he now wanders around within a small area. While the title is equipped he also responded to /handover but /pet didn't seem to do anything.

Oh my god, its a red Spyro.

His face is really weird...

I'm trying to save up for lil Ifrit. He's so cute, he does look like Sypro kinda.

If there are secret stuff it can do ya gotta tell me. Lol

As cute as it is, Ifrit makes a really featureless pet. Zero interactions whatsoever. Mammeteer gives it independent AI so it will herd, respond to /handover and wander around, but all emotes do nothing. Heck even the Illuminatus (the other Blood Pepper pet) responds to /poke (with the title on)

Who knows though, maybe it's got interactions with future primal minions.

I imagine it will interact with the other mini primals, but I'm incredibly dissapointed it can't sit on your shoulder or anything at all, especially considering how much of a pain it is to get.

Is that minion from the GS

I wonder if it has special interaction with SMN title green eyes or acts differently when your job is SMN?

I thought it did something special as well, considering lots of naive people are spending 10+ mil on it i thought it would do more then just stand there.

Fixed that for you!

Oh good, I don't have to waste my time going after this now. Saves me a lot of time, gil, and effort.

My Free Company is days away from having the Blood Peppers for this fellow and I'm still very excited about it. Did Square ever say that he would have additional features? I'm curious why we expect Ifrit to have anything beyond the features minions traditionally have.

Don't know, none of the crafted pets (even the ones using rare mats like Blood Peppers) have any special interactions. Not Iron Giant, not the Gysahl Cart, not the Gobcart, Nana bear, aldgoat etc.
Special interactions like shoulder warming or fighting or moogle dancing are really exceptions. With how unique mini Ifrit is though, I'd be surprised if they didn't add -something- later.

Even before level 50 4 stars crafted pet don't have any special interaction, why complain now ._.

Because tiny little inferno nails would be awesome.

May be a blind guess, since I don't have it myself. You should try to use it close to some Amalj'aa minion, maybe they will start worshipping him or something like that...

That would be funny! I was surprised that he didn't spit flame! He just looks like he roars.

More like a little bark than a roar, but yeah that (seems) to be all he does right now.
