(PSN)xtharbadx 578 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Yup. That's awesome. It's the one reason why I don't use pets as much. Also hope they add some more pets. I heard they were thinking on adding more Kavats. Looking forward for that. Link to post Share on other sites

Paradoxity 751 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 That is awesome. That's honestly why I've resisted using pets all this time, since sentinels were so much simpler and cheaper. Might be time to check those critters out now. Link to post Share on other sites

BeldarTheBrave 226 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Yes, this is a very positive change. I still use Helios because I'm afraid of missing scans and such. It's a shame really because I want to use some colorful kavats. They added loot vacuuming to pets, I wish they would make a scanner cat too. Helios is just too valuable to not use.

Please don't make another breed specific thing that should be a universal ability. >.< Just have a scanner widget that allows kubrows/kavats in particular to scan regardless of breed. I don't want to be forced to use helios or <single kubrow/kavat breed here>. Note: I say scanner widget because kavat/kubrow builds are already extremely unforgiving unless you want to be rezzing them every 30 seconds or have them hit like a wet noodle.

I can finally get use all of my kubrows! I'm pretty excited about this. Primary reason I don't use them is the hassle of getting them out of stasis and not being able to just have them attached to loadout slots. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

That's fair enough and kind of what I meant actually. I wasn't thinking specifically about a widget as even Helios has a mod that does it. Vacuum and scanning are just too valuable to give up for where I'm at in the game. I'm nearing late game as I'm doing sorties and stuff, but scanning and vacuum are just too needed still for me to put Helios away. I know there is the Fetch mod, so my problem is half solved.

KnossosTNC 4,254 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 (edited) In one of the last few patches, they mentioned that the DNA Integrity rework was part of a Pets overhaul, so I knew this was coming. Before that, I had an Adarza Kavat ("Sekhmet") and a Helminth Charger ("Shub-Niggurath"), and didn't feel like buying another Stasis slot, knowing it was going to be a pain in the backside to manage more than those two. Since then, I've finally went and bought a third slot, have been hunting for Kavat DNA, and just got myself a Smeeta Kavat ("Lakshmi"). I'm now thinking about getting either a Sahasa or a Chesa Kubrow to see if either could be a good energy orb-providing buddy to my Ivara. I'm already on the hunt for another nice mythology-based name. Long, long overdue, but better late than never. Edited April 6, 2019 by KnossosTNC Link to post Share on other sites
Barefoot_Monkey 13 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 I disagree. This upcoming change is not the best thing. Not having to switch in and out of melee mode is the best thing - the stasis changes are merely the second-best thing :) Link to post Share on other sites

Hypernaut1 15,165 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 I kind of liked the restriction... Can't explain why. But I definitely will appreciate being able to attach pets to load outs. Huras to Ash, Smeeta to my farm builds, Sahasa to Ember, etc Link to post Share on other sites
