Able to knock me off my epic mount
Fierce slow spell
Spawn up to 3 times after I take a daily quest item
Anything that annoying surely would make a great companion
Let the mobs suffer thru that for a while

    This could so easily turn into a "what companion do you wish you had?" thread!

    (in no particular order)

    1. Redcap Witherer or Thorn (or an interesting variant of them). MUST be psychotic! I think the best line I've ever seen one say is when a witherer tells a Fomorian warrior: "your eye would look good on my cap." LOL every time.

    2. Goblin Sharpshooter. When I go out to solo Frozen Heart and I pass one on the top of the mountain I keep imagining my HR asking, "Hey, would you be interested in a job? Better pay, warmer weather, and no ice trolls threatening to eat you?" I'd think they'd be lining up to accept.

    3. Nearsighted Blue Fire Eye. It doesn't see you as an enemy because...well...it needs glasses...er...glass!

    4. Bristle Spider. That would be a fun critter at skirmishes.

    5. Quickling. I'm very 'meh' on the fact that you can't see his face, but I think he'd get along great with the Lizardfolk Shaman. I wonder what interesting variants might be possible...a quickling witch-doctor, maybe?

    6. Doppleganger. Now *that* could make for some interesting fight mechanics!


    As for critters to fight, I'd like to see:
    - ankheg
    - carrion crawler
    - purple worm
    - doppleganger
    - piercer
    - water weird
    - xorn (you HAVEN'T known terror until you've had to fight these!)
    - umber hulk

    The dwarven bolter would be OP just like the cockatrice except from rooting you forever and preventing powers from working it would slow you down to about 10% movement speed like they do in DV. That would really destroy Opvp even more lol.

    I want a big gnoll as a companion. He would be wearing leather armor with spikes and skulls and carry a big sword. It'd be awesome.

    Those Dwarven bolters are definitely mean! Not only do those attacks slow you to a crawl, but if you get close, they kick you the heck back... I pity the melee character that doesn't have a distance-closer or backup ranged/mez attack at the ready.

    That kick is a nasty addition. Finally get close and ooof! - your attack
    is wrecked and you're 10 feet away... and still moving at a crawl!

    I like Thri-kreens. Hope for them as a companion.
    Did you really think anyone could steal the power of the god of thieves?

    Dwarven bolter would be cool, it wouldn't be quite as powerful with only one instead of five or so though.

    Quicklings exist from an old charge rewards promotion actually.
    Neverwinter players are stubborn things....until you strip them down to bone. (Cursed players, my flowers, MINE!) Oh how I plotted their demise.

    I want this too, one of this big gnolls or big hyenas. Or those big huge lizard brutes. I also would like a large troll like the ones in Sharandar.

    I want one of those archers that one normally finds at campfires, the ones that kill anything with a single shot. They can kill Valindra or the Dracolich with a single shot for me :o

    I knew about the charge rewards one, though it was only yesterday that I actually saw one in the wild (and I took a ton of screenshots). I'm hoping it becomes available again someday.
