I dont mean on summons because we already have them.I mean
on animals or fantastic creatures what follow us and maybe
picking loot instead of us.We should get it from some kind
of balls(like fire creature from fire ball) what we can find
from farming.It should be rare but allowed to trade(no soulbound).After we found ball we should "feed" it with
items(so many crap loot from normal mobs what can be used for this)so it gets exp and finnaly get out of ball.Next born pet should be kept feeded but this time every time when we feed it with same weapon(for example)that weapon would stay at pet but with better stats.That look like more swords
pet eat that sword will have better dmg so we can take it from pet when its finnaly good.There should be gap of "leveling" items from pet.That's all and i hope this gonna be relased because i think its very good idea and someone will agree with me.

The loot idea is coming with the Bling Gnome. As for the rest, it would almost support a different game by itself. It might be neat and such, but I doubt it will ever happen.

"Pikachu! I choose you!!!"

"Charmender, avoid Pikachu and do a fire... rain!" -- Suggested before.

yea something like that just no pet fights
but yea pets should have own elements idk why but
just ...why not it would be really nice like
farming boss and you get fire ball(idk how to explain it..not really ball something like stone) and you say WOW and start
feeding it with (tons of crap loot) and after like 1 week you
get pet what you gonna love ^^.Maybe ice pet little Algor the cold or little Sissi.For me it sounds like great idea.even stephen said its nice idea and to post here.AND GOOD 1st APRIL JOKE!!!!!!!! GREAT IDEA !!!!!

Hey Tand, lol, I think you missed the hint of sarcasm in their responses.

BUT, I too would like to see (I guess we can call them) "pets", but I think they're going to come more in the form of new summons. I'm thinking more along the lines of DiabloII'esque summons. I think having a "pet" with you all the time may detract from the way the game is played now too much though, but the game itself may change on the whole obviously.

Maybe having the pet for a limited time, or having it activated by an item for the duration of one instance/level. That I think would be pretty neat.
Maybe the items could be purple drops, and be something like "Eagle's Cry": a whistle that you "use" and an eagle pet appears to fight with you or have some other ability, but only until you enter the next red door.

maybe like that...but i dont mean pet always be with you
i mean you have it as item in inventory so when you get crap items you just call pet and give item to it and then put pet back in inventory so you see it only when you activate it...
and you dont need pet in dungeons because pets not fighting
summons do...but in town you summon pet so everyone can see you got rare pet and maybe someone who got other type can trade it for yours...something like you got fire pet and you
want ice one...so you trade it for ice...and if not pets
then please let summons be good...i mean snowman...not bad
but looks silly..maybe tiger or something

In summary you want a mule.

I accept this proposal if DR implements a huge jackass that randomly donkey-kicks team members to death and all the loot he collects is actually digested so gold coins trickle out of his butt.
