So, with the expansion comes new battle pets.

Which venos with $200 battle pets are cutting their wrists?

    advice to fledgling archers:
    Going sage is like drunken sex, at first she may look good, but when you wake up the next morning; you'll look at her and go WHAT HAVE I DONE.

    Please tell me you're joking. The economy in this game is already royally screwed. Another legendary pet would just inflate gold prices even more for no reason, herc and nix are more than enough in my opinion.

    If this is true then I might reconsider coming back to this game.

    Battle Pet.

    Hercs and Nixs are Battle pets. They come from a Battle pet Pack.

    You linked to the PREVIOUS expansion. The said battle pets are herc and nix.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    ^ This.

    You got this from the Lost Empire expansion, which was loooong ago, probably about the time when nix and herc came out.

    That's The Lost Empire. The expansion coming out is Rising Tide.

    No worries.

    The giant turtle everyone keeps talking about is a boss that someone took a screenie of and posted on various websites. Don't believe it until you see it for yourself.

    Yep, I wont believe it until a GM posts some stuff or I meet a turtle pet myself. I wouldnt be surprised if that boss is just an enlarged model of the pet turtle (if it actually exists) though. Cause I remember seeing screenshots of an all-class turtle too, maybe that is one of the new all-class pets in the new packs, Im not sure.

    Apparently, theres a new battle pet in China's verison of PW. I can't confirm it though, as i only heard of it through a friend.

    The turtle rumor has been debunked. Battle pets will come along I'm sure as there is an Eldergoth Archer as well as a water pet in the database that aren't available yet. I tried to go get one of the water pets but it was beyond the limitations of the current map.

    The stat charts leave ample room for new pets to be added. About the only area that's currently maxed out is attack since a nix hits rather fast, and as hard as any pet possibly can.

    Getting archers in the expansion would be nice, but I'm starting to think they won't be all that powerful. Given what we've found of the mobs tame level being responsible for it's range attack distance, an archer will end up attacking pretty close to the target, and that negates some of the potential value unless it manages to land right in that area that's far enough away from mob melee, but close enough to use range attacks.

    There have -always- been rumors of a new legendary pet. Back before I left the game a few months ago I read about how the Chinese version of PW had a legendary water pet, presumably the turtle. Strange that the screenie of the "pet" showed it on land.

    and it looked alot like the all-class turtle....

    Hoping for some new pets, just for variety.

    It seems unlikely that any will become 'must have best ever' pets though.

    They released the baby turtle in PWI? Would it be safe to assume the dragon and phoenix were released too? I thought they'd never release those in this version.

    Yup - the current pack sales include the mini-dragon and the frost-nix (which is very very very very very shiny)
