Wind-Up Garuda driving me mad!

And no, it's not because she HAHAHEHEHOHAs in my ear. Rather, it's the lack of.

I swear, SWEAR when I first used her item and summoned her, I saw a chatbox appear that was basically her crazylaugh. Ever since then, I've been unable to get it to do so.

Anyone have any ideas? >< Thanks!

The minion does not make a noise, just like any other. Her action is her Astral Flow (ultimate move) without the effects like the other primal minions. She lands on your shoulder/head of course too, but no laughing.

The Magic Broom makes noise. It could be the only one that does but i'm not sure.

If you listen to the Mandragora minions, you can hear the patter of their feet as they move around. I think anything that's on the ground when they move or do a motion (like sweeping!) can make noise. Not sure about anything aside from that.

She said it in a chat bubble, not an actual sound. Would be pretty creepy if she laughed though...

I don't have that title, yet. >.< Anyone else willing to try?

I guess it only happens the first time you summon her? That would be sad. ;_;

Open her page in the minion guide and place your cursor on the illustration. That could have been what you saw,

Doesn't the 'real' Garuda laugh like that in a chat bubble when you fight her?
Perhaps you are remembering that, but misplacing your memories onto the minion.

I musta read the post abit wrong then, but yeah, when you're in the minion menu, and you see the picture of Garuda there, you hover over it for the laugh bubble. You may of went over that for it

Ok, here's what happened: I summoned it in Ishgard for the first time in the Jewelled Crozier using a macro. Right behind my character I see the chat bubble pop up as the Garuda is summoned. Maybe I was seeing things, but I swear I saw it. I'm helping an FC mate craft one of these soon, I'll ask her to keep an eye on her newly summoned minion. If she gets a screenie I'll post it here. xD

I've crafted several of these for FC mates and stood there while they summoned it for the first time, but I can't say that I've ever seen it do this. Not sure if this would be more cool or creepy to see, lol.

It could of been a glitch or of course seeing things, lol. This does not happen, and I have 3 characters with the minion, none of them ever got such message. The laughing speech bubble of the minion is in the minion guide.

It took me THIS long (minus a few months) to figure out that hovering the mouse over the minion's image in this menu produced the little quote, and THAT was what I was seeing...

Thank you for helping answer this, Canadane!
