If they offered a Pet Reset Token in the UO Store would you buy it?

They need to make it a simple to get in game item imho

Why should we have to pay for something they made completely overly complicated again

And they keep making changes to the pets

I agree with you. However, money is the only way we will see it in a timely manner

When the pet revamp first hit I thought I would really like something along this line. But I have already killed off all the pets I goofed up in learning the process. If or when I goof up in the future I would rather take my time hunting for a pet with the right hp's resists etc I needed instead of paying for a roll at the RNG and maybe getting stuck with a low grade one.

If the "token" would ensure the pet went back to it's original stats then it would be a "possible" purchase but only for a nominal fee.

There are also pets we can't get anymore, that got messed up.

Look at the players that had Dread Mares and Bane Dragons that got messed up with publish 97. They should have an option for a do over. The Developers screwed up on that one. The players are the ones left paying the price.

If it gave me my scrolls back, that would be a must buy for me.
There is a few pets I would rather redo or just get the scrolls back and release to get a better pet to fill that slot.

The folks who goofed those up would definitely take advantage of the token for sure. Which is why I took my time, copied to TC etc to make sure I got those right.

Good point. Did not consider the price of scrolls.

It's not even a matter of player making a mistake. For awhile bugs in the abilites selection resulted in ruined pets, or pets that are very sub-optimal compared with what can be done today.. Considering that Devs did not do a thing to increase PS supply to correspond with new demand, these pets are very expensive mistakes. I very much would like to ether get my 100s of millions gold worth of PSs out of these pets, or at the very least be able to retrain them.

I have a tamer I dumped all the bugged pets I made, whether a good bugged or a bad bugged. A whole lot of 120 scrolls in those pets, that were made worthless by various bugs and changes. Even if they just sold a token to bring those pets down to their correct slot and be able to retrain the pet and keep the scrolls on that pet. The problem for the vast majority were pet that slot jumped, changes to spec abilities and moves and things like my mare that jumped from 2 slot to 5 slot after the first round of training and sits in the stable with resist and 120 scrolls on her and that is it as her training is complete by some fluke. They also really need to make the stable slot increase tokens NOT acct bound, I know I am not the only one that made the mistake of buying them from the ingame store on the usual toon I am in the habit of making my store purchases on and the having a........... well that was stupid moment as that acct already had max stable increases. Not so bad on prodo where you can just put them on another toon for pet storage........ Sucks on Siege when all those 6 tokens can do is sit in a box and be a annoying reminder of $30 whizzed away.

The devs need to own this one for once and fix it.

They dont seem to keep record of the starting stats of pets though. So a wiped 4.1 might turn into a 1.6 if there was respec tokens, or if possible, compromise to a standard skill template.

Would have to be revert to set of standard stats and skills. I would go with a set of average stats for a fresh tame or maybe put it at average +25% since if you went looking for say a 2 slot mare, you would want one as close to 3 slots without going to 3 slot. Orin my case lesser hiryus that have as close to the fresh HP cap as possible (Hey even 50-60 hp makes a difference in spending the points) I can see pet reset tokens being very popular with a lot of us. LOL over timeI would probably drop -23 grand on them.

Why would you pay for something they did and what logic is this that only if it's worth real money it will be implemented faster?

The ability to reset pets should be included in gameplay, not an extra charge. It is far too easy to mess up a pet.

Because they seem to like the fact that PSs cost 40M and more a piece, since it "stimulates the PVP." So chances of them doing anything at all are slim to none.

Because money is a great motivating factor for any business :)

Not really having too much experience with the new training at the time and no real sense of what would go best with what tame, I made several mistakes with some of my oldest and most coveted pets even after several tc1 runs.

I would buy one in a heartbeat. +1

I posted an idea about this a while ago. I vote yes to the respec token; reset all slot levels back to starting level. Allow us to rebuild the pet, and get power scrolls on them returned.

I do think they should be "sold" by the game shop, because it would generate more money to keep the game running.
