PetOrbs/GGPetOrbs.

[Renatus]

Right, this is what I've got so far, stats will require altering and I could use some new idea's for what pets to use, I knocked this list up today from scratch, so I'm sure there's improvements to be made.

PetOrb List;

S at 1-39 gives 3 foxes.
S/M at 40-49 gives 3 FrostCubs.
M/L at 50-59 gives a pair of ES's.
M/L at 60-69 gives a pair of KH's.
L at 70-89 gives a pair of CrystalSpiders (weakened poison).
L at 90-99 gives a pair of IZT's.

XL at 60-79 gives a pair of CrystalSpiders (weakened poison).
XL at 80-89 gives a pair of IZT's.
XL at 90-99 gives a pair of DD's.

Small can be used at level 1 to 59 - This is the base line.
Medium can be used at level 40 and above - Gives the pets +10% damage.
Large can be used at level 50 and above - Gives the ability to recall.
XLarge can be used at 60 and above - Gives +10 levels.

GGPetOrb will be +1 size and will give an additional 10% ac/amc. So GGPetOrb(S) will be the same as PetOrb(M), GGPetOrb(M) will be the same as PetOrb(L) etc.
It will also give you 3 free resummons with a command and unlimited ones via an npc in BW, meaning you can log out without thinking "Oh damn, I just lost my £18 pet". The list for people with GGPets will reset every 5 days with our 5 day reboot. Meaning you're basically buying a pet for the 5 day week.

Each size gains the previous one/s abilities; XLarge gives +10% damage, the ability to recall and +10 levels.

When a size's level bracket ends, it can still give the lasts pets you were able to purchase. Ie at level 90 a Small Orb still gives you 3 FrostCubs.

Small will drop rather often, so people can easily have pets to level 50 (and then keep them for a while).
Medium will drop from minor bosses, fairly low drop chance.
Large will drop from major bosses, with a low drop chance,


GGPetOrb List;

S at 1-49 gives 3 FrostCubs.
S/M at 50-59 gives a pair of ES's.
S/M at 60-69 gives a pair of KH's.

M at 90-99 gives a pair of IZT's.

L at 60-79 gives a pair of CrystalSpiders (weakened poison).
L at 80-89 gives a pair of IZT's.
L at 90-99 gives a pair of DD's.

XL at 50-69 gives a pair of IZT's.
XL at 70-79 gives a pair of DD's.
XL at 80-89 gives an IBL.

GGPetOrb(XL) will cost 1800gg (£18).

----------------------------------------------

Reboot days will be; Monday, then it'd be Friday, then Tuesday, then Saturday, then Wednesday, then Sunday, then Thursday, then Monday > start over. I'll find a program of some sort to put out a list for a few months at a time, to make it easier for people to keep up. We'll also have an 'Important News' thread when the server is live, where we'll keep the 'Next Reboot' up to date.

Sounds good, I know quite a few servers that have been ruined by overpowered pets, leading to people having to do nothing but lure on there pets to level/PvP.

I don't see why your complictaing the process by haviong reboots eveyr 5 days, it will be a hassle for people to continually check/ask to see when reboot is. Other servers do it every 7 days (every monday) and this works out just fine

The reboots will happen late night/early morning so hopefully not many people will be effected !

in the early stages of the server 5 day reboots work out well as they will be a loads of fixes/updates to do having a reboot every 5 days enables us to do more updates more often.

That is why we want to have 5 day reboots, at least for the 1st month of server up...
