Treats and baths and all that~

Post by Kendrah » December 7th, 2013, 2:59 pm

Do any of you use the millions of treats/baths/balls/biscuits/mini-biscuits or do you just chuck them? I get so many of them when I do the dailies. I'd love new things to do with them.

I used to sell them off at an NPC but now I'm waging a gorilla warfare campaign against the various trainers and turning all their pets huge. They kind of glow behind the NPC trainers all ominous like. The rise of the Warcraft battles pets! I kind of imagine Toothbreaker say "This Idol has beaten me up daily for no reason whatsoever and does my trainer do anything about it? No! Well, screw this!"

I use the Lesser Biscuits on other people whenever I see the same companion pet I have out at the time.

I just delete them. The thrill of extra big or extra small pets faded pretty quickly for me. :)

I normally save them but if I ever reach over a stack, I toss the full stack and save the new ones. If bag space wasn't such a precious commodity, I'd save them all. :P

I especially enjoy seeing my pets attempt to retrieve the fetching ball. Some animations are silly and others are outright ridiculous. They all seem inclined to pick it up with their face/head... and it just makes me faceplam because some of those pets have hands! :lol:

I have seriously limited bag space, like usually 4-5 free slots in my bags at a time :(

So I tend to only keep the pet biscuits/bandages/xp foods, everything else gets vendored, usually keep one stack of pet biscuits, send all bandages to an alt, and /sigh at my lack of bagspace lol.

They so need to put a new item in game though that drops form those goodie bags, a multi pet leash, a leash that lets you have 5 pets out at the same time :D

I would keep that! :D

I vendor everything but the magic pet biscuits, the xp increasing treats and the bandages. I can get some value out of making my pets bigger, but don't particularly care how shiny or happy they are. I really don't see the point in the pet shrinking treats; as a melee class I have my camera zoomed out a fair distance and I can hardly see my pets when they're normal size, let alone shrunken down.

I keep bandages up to a point, about 2 stacks per toon, with a few extra stacks on underplayed alts. I have an alt that sits by a starter zone for easier trades :) and so I send all my XP foods and battle stones and celestial tournament coins to her. My main keeps a stack of the bigger pet biscuits. Everything else gets vendored or tossed.

I like using the biscuits to make my pets bigger when they have an especially cute name (which is, like, all of them) or on the pets I know someone, usually a guildmate, has been unsuccessful in farming. :twisted:

Vendor everything.

Besides the gold reward for completing the daily tamers, it's my only real source of income.

I keep the shrink/grow biscuits, the xp buff, and bandages. I wish the biscuits were account bound because then when I bank on my alts I could chuck'em at random pets. Most people still really get a kick out of a teeny tiny dragon or a monolithic idol. I know I do!

LOL! I'm like you too. I used to sell them as well but then I had none and that was annoying. Actually, it always seems that I'm out on the character that's doing the dailies. So then afterward I get on my other toon and mail them to that chara, only to decide to do the dailies on another chara. Story of my life.

I leave 1 stack on every toon! Precisely because I kept forgetting them and then BAM! would need to heal and have to fly to a mailbox >.>
