What bothers me the most about how badly pets are treated by Funcom is that they are legitimately harder to raise than a human Thrall.
T4 Fighter: Camp Sinners for a few minutes or grab any of the guaranteed spawns (Blood Crystal/Obolus included) throw them into a Wheel for a few minutes with the easiest food in the game and out comes the best kind of thrall to have. Imagine if your T4 fighter had an 80% chance to just die on the wheel lol.
The only drawback is needing to equip it… but that isnt exactly hard.
Compare that to pets, needing you to first find a baby animal, then build the pens, then find its best food that grants a chance to produce a Greater and then start praying.
And what you get in the end is a below average thrall that cant keep up with the damage of a Human thrall, cant be given gear to scale its armor like a human thrall and all you get in return over that human thrall is … 5 more inventory slots.
You cant even change their appearance after placing them.
So unlike a human Thrall that you can transmog any cool new DLC armor onto, you have to commit that pet to a single look for the rest of its life.
I 100% agree that all Thrall types should be equally viable.
