Next January/Febuary we need an event that gives away a Superb Owl companion.

Owls would make great companions and this way they would have a year to work necessary to add them.

Something like this:

Once the basic Owl is made then we could get a clockwork owl like that is featured in one of the paintings in the game.

    Yes, Id like a Owl companion, even if its just a re-skin of either the Hawk or the Hunting Hawk.

    Something like a Bubo like owl would be cool as well, but then its just me.

    I really hope it wouldn't be a reskin of the hawks because it wouldn't look right at all.

    And by clockwork owl that is exactly what I meant.

    Hmm, didn't Athena send Perseus a mechanical owl, symbolizing wisdom, in the movie "Clash of the Titans"? In the actual myth she did not give him an owl.

    Rather have a giant owl or celestial owl then clockwork owl.
    This forum set up is absolutely horrible, I cant even figure out how to get my knight of the feywild title.

    Yes, in the movie she defied Zeus and had an owl built because she would not part with Bubo, her live owl.

    YESSS! And even better if Owl companions will allow you to mail/collect item anywhere in game...(*glares at NPC who pushes you 5 feet from mailbox while composing*)

    As a resident of Massachusetts I am sorry to say that I would have no choice then to boycott this years Superb Owls. I can only support the addition of a Superb Owl Companion if I can name mine "Pat"!

    Not sure, but I think Stephen Colbert may have trademarked "Superb Owl":

    While we're talking bird companions, how about a parrot for all these pirates (myself included) running around PE?

    As it turned out we should have gotten a Bronco mount:

    Get dismounted whenever you receive damage and have a chance do drop an artifact.

    Or a Seahawk mount:

    Fly through any dungeon to the open end chest bypassing any oposition.



    Still could get Olympic rings or a Torch Artifact next event..?

    or

    May be Free Resurection Scroll Drop on easter...

    or

    May be we'll get an Artifact Called Stanley's Cup in June/July?

    Use: Fill the cup with dwarven ale and drink up.
    Powers while equipt: You run normaly on ice.

    No, I haven't watched Colbert Report in several years. He wasn't the first person to make that joke. For example, the Superb Owl subreddit.

    I laughed at this, even if it would be way to offensive to put in the game. =)

    An Owl Mimic? No one would ever suspect.


    A "proper" Bubo must look like this, however:
