^That's a whole lot of assuming there.... "Get Vorago himself as a pet," which of course you don't, you get a tiny version of him, and "Previous strongest pet, TzRek-Jad," implying you think that the new SoF pet is stronger? No, who the heck thinks or would think that the Vorago Shard is stronger than a summoning pet? Firstly, pets can't attack, so how could he be stronger, and secondly, Everyone will be able to see the difference between the shard and a regular summoning creature, and they will know that they just bought it from the store, whether it was just to support Jagex (some people do that you know), or to get a cool looking pet. If people know the difference between SGS pets and game-obtained pets, they will know that a cb level 190 dude with a Tzrek-Jad is much more accomplished than some "Level 4 with his parent's credit card." And for your information, there are level 4 skillers that have been playing for years and don't want to train summoning


Yeah I've played 8 years now and been a member in/owned multiple skilling clans, I think I know about level 3 4 pures at this point. I'll be blunt and say I don't think you know the least bit about PvM and how highly regarded the pet was as a vanity item before this SGS update and I don't think I can relate it to you either. They absolutely diminished its value, many people that I Vorago with now have less interest in getting the pet from Vorago because it looks too similar to the SGS pet and the vast majority of the playerbase hasn't seen a Vitalis to be able to tell them apart.

There were dozens of ways to profit off of Vorago's launch and for some reason they picked one that greatly devalued the most difficult to obtain item from Vorago. I don't mind supporting Jagex, I just don't like having to diminish significant achievements in this game to do so.

Jagex breaking two promises in one month! Brilliant!
"We will never release a rare discontinued item on purpose." - Thanks for CoS, Fish Mask and Xmas tree hat.

"SGS will only be for cosmetic items and emotes." - Thanks for giving pets an advantage over others that you can purchase. First step towards a, buy your way to power game.

Just because you take the idea of making the combat level 200 from maplestory does not mean you need to take their 4 digit hit markers, buyable clothing and weapons for real currency, better looking armour overides than items you can obtain by playing the real game, or their pet system.

We play to play the game, when skills had slower xp rates we tried our best to grind through them because we knew the item or cape at the end would be worth it.
We kill the hardest bosses because we know we can make a pretty penny when the toughest beast drops the nicest gear.
Don't make things easier.

Once again something from Solomon's Garbage Store that should have been implemented for LOYAL players in the main game. And thanks for breaking your promise about the Garbage store being "solely cosmetic." At least you finally admitted that it gives an advantage this time. Too bad you won't admit that the Garbage store, Squeel of Misfortune, and the Evolution of Crap need to be flushed down the toilet and forgotten.

So, uh, which pet was it that gave an advantage? 'Cuz I bought the mini-Vorago, and all he does is an emote. Literally nothing affects gameplay about it.

"Legendary pets are available from Solomon's Store. They have three stages of growth, have emotes and animations specific to each of those stages, and can be recoloured and renamed. They have a number of useful gameplay functions too, such as gathering dropped items and depositing items to your bank."
Be Excellent to Each Other!
