Pet Support Build

[Adrais]

First off, I just wanted to say that I pre-ordered the game yesterday, and have been loving every minute of it.

I had a thought that I didn't see brought up in the forums (but I have no idea if the logistics of implementaion are reasonable). Currently in game, there are skills like the rain cloud, that are effectively lend themselves towards a summon build. I thought it could be interesting if in the support tree, there was a set of skills that would add extra utility to the pets, effectively allowing you to create a pet build. For instance, one skill route could be to give your pet offensive abiilities. A second skill could allow your pet to forage, granting increased drops from enemies. A third skill could be a defensive, or aura based skill with the pet. So with the three skills, you effectively get an offensive, defensive and utility based option for your pets. And potentially, a high end tier for one of the skills could allow the use of multiple pets (although I could see that unbalancing the tree instantly).

Anyways, I think the art direction is beautiful, and I am really looking forwards to seeing how this game turns out.

Glad to hear you like the game so far!

When we implement the passive skills, we hope for them to change up the current way you build your characters quite a bit, including summon builds.

I can't give any details about what those would be, since we haven't done much of that design yet, but I do like some of your suggestions and will bring them up when we discuss the passive skills for sure!

We've also talked about possibly having some semi-rare gear affecting summon builds, as well.
