i just hope one day that venos wisen up and stop paying 1+ mil for rare pets ..

Well myself, I will never buy any rare pet ever. I will not give into their insane greed. If I want the pet I'll tame it myself I already got my armored bear that way.

I'm sure that's an easy statement to make when one has a legendary pet.

There are others who want a rare pet and don't have the opportunity to tame one be it time constraint or whatever other reasons and are willing to pay for a rare pet. And just because someone sells a rare pet does not make them insanely greedy.

Nothing is ever black and white..........never forget the grey in between.

I wouldn't buy a rare pet either but only because I think they are overpriced. this statement is made with a distinct difference. I believe it is the buyers who set the price when they pay for an overpriced item and not the seller who charges an outrageous amount.

solo TT - can be done by a veno alone with a magmite..
skills - venos need ironwood scarab.. venomous scarab.. lucky scarab.. purge.. amp damage.. and their pet heals.. everything else isn't necessary
armor - can be pretty bad and a veno can still handle itself fine in pve
pots - easily replaced by charms and that actually ends up being cheaper in most cases
crazy stones and repairs.. every class has em.. veno has way less repairs than anyone

solo TT - not at all... beleve me just need to be VERY lucky for have a solo TT run just worth... time farming subs + time just take kill the mobs until reach the boss, squad mode woth a lot more, beleve me i ve tryed and the diference btween squad mode and solo mode is really big, also if i use my subs in a TT squad worth more than solo mode.
Skills - U forget Metabolic Boost, Nature's Grace, summer sprint, fox form. obviously some skills depends on the build but that is applicable to all clasess, not exist class just learn all skills of their skill tree(i mean all to max).
Armor - True
pots - depends i use pots cuz my build is arcane and my HP is really low, charm dont worth in me.
Anyway, is true just venos made more money just others BUT not much more.

b:bye

but 90% of the time you will make the cost of the sub back in mirage drops .. so its not a complete waste of time or a money sink in solo TT

yea i did forget those skills.. but they aren't very expensive looking at ecatombs.. the main skill money sink are the 59 ultimates.. my sunder lvl 8 cost my 600k .. parasitic nova isn't widely used and leveling it isn't really worth it for a veno

Not anymore for the subs. There are almost no subs left on HT. I'm guessing Rad bought them all out at once. Now if you can find any subs at all, they are insanely overpriced.

only time i've seen it really be used is in TW and rebirth order quests o.O

Ya'll need to over it already. Taming is a matter of luck and skill and gear and potions. If your not lucky, o well. Deal with it. I've been known to kill rare spawns simply because I had an issue with a person at the spawn that was trying to capture it themselves, or their faction, and refuse to allow them to have it. Part of the game. Get used to it and move on with your lives.

And hey, if you have the luck in catching it and want to sell it... that is your business and again, get over it. That is how the ball bounces.

Greed has nothing to do with it. If I was greedy, I would set alts up at the spawn spots and kill the spawns for a few months to jack the prices up. I have 3 computers and could easily jack the price up of the Kowlin, and the Shadou Cub and I wouldn't think a thing of doing it. So be happy I'm not doing that (and yes, I have more than 3 accounts as well.)

I read your thread about people hassling you on the server for your opinions on the board, and think it's silly and taking things to personally on their part.

That said, if the above statements are true, then *this* is what makes you an insufferable *ssclown, and I thank the Gods that directed me to Heaven's Tear and away from your server.

It's a game, and intentionally griefing people for the sheer entertainment value of griefing people is childish, petty and frankly pretty sad. Not to mention the *classic* PK attitude, "You should thank me for not killing you twice, or following you around and killing you wherever you go, n00b".

What a tw*t.

Here's hoping you have a long and enjoyable life of p*ssing in people's cornflakes.

solandri.. what you are saying is that everyone has the potential to merchant .. buy low sell high.. and yes.. everyone does have that potential.. but if you read what i said and what i explained.. they have more potential to make money through regular playing means .. i don't have a second computer setup buying and selling stuff 24/7 and i like to actually play when i am on.. and don't have time (read: don't wanna spend my time) looking through cat shops figuring out what can profit and not

what i said is very true.. they have more potential to make money .. however what you said is also true.. but that is only making money one way.. there are other ways in which a veno is superior making coin though.. solo TT for an example .. throw a herc into that equation and you have real money making ability .. (squad mid mode done solo.. big time commitment to solo .. but hardly any investment required because of no sub.. just repairs and maybe mana pots.. and pick the right bosses)

apparently you don't understand that a veno with a magmite can run solo TT by him/herself with hardly any charm burn .. no other class can

a veno with a herc can solo squad mode TT with hardly any charm burn.. no other class can .. this means all the drops from these bosses and no split .. therefore more money..

the issue isn't the amount of drops.. its that they can do it alone.. no need to split loot.. i figured that was pretty obvious.. simple math

then again you are one of those forum troll accounts.. so meh

Unless you play 24/7, you don't need a second computer. Just leave the cat shop up when you aren't playing. I assume you sleep, eat, go to school/work?

and don't have time (read: don't wanna spend my time) looking through cat shops figuring out what can profit and not

And I don't wanna earn exp by grinding, I want to Zhen, which is something my veno can't do. But you don't see me complaining about it. Each class has different capabilities. Different things they're good at, and things they can't do. That's what makes them, you know, different.

Hear, hear. Tell you one thing though... I get kinda envious of those people that can blow through mobs like they were made out of paper. But, of course, on the flipside... They get blown through as well.

Every class has strengths and weaknesses, and different playstyles to complement them. You don't see many wizards, archers, or clerics dashing into a room full of mobs, and you don't see many barbarians, or blademasters, hiding in the back of the group, and by that same token, you don't see many venomancers doing anything without their pet.

Granted, all of those are possible, I know a couple wizards, archers, and clerics, who blast the **** out of everything that moves whether there's a tank on it or not. I also know a handful of barbarians and blademasters, that
when the time calls for it, stay in the back row. A good example here is when fighting Suzerix. That AoE will catch a cleric in the blast, if they have to heal a melee tank. That's why, whenever we do Suzzie, we have mage tanks. Mostly me... Which falls under the third category, Veno sans pet.

It's a matter of sacrifice over gain. What do you give up to excel at something else? Do you sacrifice the ability to survive hits, so you can destroy your foes faster? Do you do the opposite? Do you give up range, so you can hurt your foes up close? Do you choose to tank Magic, or Melee? Do you choose to chain yourself to a pet? Do you choose to make yourself a Jack of all trades, yet never good at any of them?

Those are among several of the questions you answered when you hit the "Create" button, and chose your character. What the answers were to you may be completely different than my answers, or the answers of any of us here. But they are yours, and yours alone. If you are happy with what you decided, then enjoy it. If not, find a way to fix it. It's that simple.

And for anyone curious, there are Venos that can't even solo the solo modes of TT... I'm one of those. But it was my decision to make myself the way I am. And, hey. I'm pretty happy with my character. I don't need TT stuff to make me happy. I'll put the effort I would be using towards that to grind money, raise my pets, and make myself some 3 star gear. Is it as good as the TT gear? Who knows. But at least it'll be my choice to wear it. And if it doesn't work, well, there's always someone willing to sell TT mats. I'll just use the money I made to buy it. Or, better yet... I'm in a faction with Venos that CAN solo TT. I don't have to go to random strangers. I just have to give my friends what they want in exchange. And I know for a fact that it won't be anywhere near as rediculous as what the Catshops are asking.

The joys of an MMO, folks. The sheer amount of people here, you're going to find someone who A. Likes you, B. Will help you, and C. Can do something you are incapable of doing yourself. That's a winning combo right there.

I agree. When I was lvl 20 or so, I wanted to tame a kitty. however, I could NEVER take it because it was never there. @_@

All Class pets shouldn't exist. Plain and simple. They're useless as hell. All I see players saying is "Oooo look at me I wasted 400k+ on a pet that does NOTHING"....You call that classy? Sounds stupid if you ask me. I could waste my 400k on skills or pots faster than I can thinking of buying an all class pet...

Pets are better off with Venos...nuff said. >.>

welll there are people who are like ooo look at me i wasted 400k+ on this fashion item that does NOTHING. (actually prolly more than 400k, i dun buy clothes so idk)

Do they really say that?

As far as "does NOTHING" goes:

Off Black Star Crossed Love top: 300k
Black Minoxy Mini-Skirt: 500k
Black Satin Shoes: 500k

Not having to run around in armor that looks like it's made out of steel lace: Priceless

Steel Lace?????? Sounds kinkyb:chuckleb:chuckleb:chuckle

I'll admit it. I've bought clothes. I did it because I wanted a static appearance to my character. Changing armor every few levels, not to mention the quest rewards you get that are really 2 star items from several levels ago, only renamed, makes you start to look like a dumpster diver. Nothing matches, and the stuff that does match, you quickly outgrow. Plus, I carry around some weird gear for the bonuses. I've got a level 4 robe, to go with level 8 pants, and level 7 shoes. I look hideous while wearing that stuff. It may do absolutely nothing statwise, but you know... I look GOOD. I know that it's only pixels, but I have an image I like to maintain. And looking like I'm at the mercy of whoever wants to throw me scraps is not that image.

Holy 3.5yr + necro batman - inbeforeclose......
