Coupon: Something I can benefit immediately....(Like $$ in the bank)

Anyone who picks 3 is just plain silly.

You're going to release the Mystery Companion Pet anyway since you want to make money from it. Maybe not that week, but it will be put in the store.

Not to much of a mystery. it would be an ice bat.

If it were a vast and mysterious pet, it would be our own little Tolero following us around. Which would be a little creappy for her and us.

If we get the TP, I will be torn between using it on the MM2 and getting more TP than I spent back or on the U15 pack.

Incidentally, QuartermasterX, can you make it so we can view the current results after we have voted? That way we can check back on the progress.

It's currently 85.6% TP (the only sensible vote out there in my opinion), 11.8% for a useless creature companion.

Now if they'd have said bee-dog companion...

Added a small puzzle above for the mystery companion pet.

Unfortunately the polling tool we use doesn't show current results after you vote. I will try and update my post occasional updates on the tally.

Deepstone Earth Elemental?

Edit: nope, QX says no 'D'. <Something> Earth Elemental, or possibly Water Elemental.

<Something> Earth Elemental?

That's Good!
I suck at these puzzle....

But then again.....I still get my lefts and rights mixed up...

What could be in front of Earth Elemental?

This will drive me crazy today
Thanks QuarterMaster

Deepstone Earth Elemental?

I'm thinking it was probably supposed to be "Companion", but they missed a dash.

An earth elemental?
I would have expected something cooler for a limited companion, like a Pit Fiend or Beholder.

Deepstone Earth Elemental?

Sounds like a winner. I don't remember the exact name but there was an earth elemental during the beta.

EDIT:

I suppose it could also be some sort of water elemental (there was one of those too)

It could be a dampened water elemental?

Looking at it again, it seems to be one short for Deepstone as well. They might have missed one, or it's something completely new that's going to be hard to guess. Also, totally agreed on the beholder. That's the only cosmetic pet I'd actually want.

Hmm, that's a good point. Earth seems more likely, though, as it's more of an iconic monster and is much more common.

That's hysterical.

Buy something that deletes itself when you get it.

also, a suggestion:

when you release new pets, POST SCREENSHOTS OF WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE IN GAME


as you know, ppl like to know what they're getting before they buy, thats why you allowed us to preview armor kits, so PLEASE, let us see what the pets look like before we buy them!

redspecter23
08-23-2012, 05:28 PM
Yeah, this isn't so much a poll as a "watch how much the free $$" wins by contest. I feel bad for anyone that might have wanted to see the new pet early, but as it's already done and ready to be released, I'd guess you won't be waiting long for it to come to the store anyway.

The 3rd option for a free trial isn't anything we should ever vote for. It basically turns itself into free cash for turbine when people try out a new class then have to buy it later to keep going. That sort of thing should just be happening from time to time to drive sales.

The mystery companion pet is clearly spells Oliphant Faced ApeBeetle.

That's clearly an euphemism for Umber Hulk.

paet is kind of a silly name.

when they say 250 Turbine Points off a "DDO Store item" do you think that means anything from the ddo store, or might it mean actual game objects (like weapons, armor, componenets, wands)? (so would not be able to apply to adventure packs, bank space)?
I voted for the companion pet. earth elemental would be nice, but the earth elemental companion is a mastery reward from the monster manual, unless this is some variation.

There's also a bat companion in the monster manual, and bats just came to the DDO store.

yeps. Pretty much a no brainer. lol how did the goofey free trial even make it on there? Should of been something that would have at least gave pause like... 50% off of evenstar challanges. At first ud say... hey ya! Then ud read the threads and go...well even with 50% is it worth it?

So, will we ever get to know what the mystery pet was?

Do we keep guessing, or what's the deal here?
