fighting fams? 04/25/2014 10:30 AM CDT


I was just wondering if familiars would ever be able to aid us in battle? I would love to have my bear fight along side of me. Also will there be higher levels of fams after fir? Thanks

The last answer I saw was that they'd scrapped the idea of the currently existing familiars fighting and would instead be a separate class of beasties.

I believe they were talking about these being elementals of a non-aether sort.

That is the current idea, yes. Solves a few conceptual problems that familiar combat has, and I think it's a bit cooler to let Warrior Mages bust out a fire elemental (or whatever) and sic it at their foes.

I don't know when this will be implemented, as it involves work I'm not directly involved with, but it is the guild-side framework we're going for.
