Hey all,

I know things have been kind of quiet on the Spirit Beasts front of late, but I wanted to keep people abreast. I should have some pretty nifty announcements in the next couple of weeks with regard to this system. Revolutionary, even! Watch this space.

Let me say only that your fingers will not be cramped for long.

Darn it Auchand. I just dropped my wow subscription after dragging myself away from my awful battle pet addiction. Now you're dragging me right back in!

Seriously though this is awesome and I can't wait.

Will alchemy recipes be released for the boost potions?

Personally hoping for less screen scroll for those not involved.

I literally leave Town Commons, or any other room, when people use spirit beasts.

(Sorry not to rain on the hard work and popularity of these things!)

Spirit Beasts don't work in town centers if they (the centers) are properly set up. The room restrictions on fighting with Spirit Beasts are there to prevent battles from being done in very populous rooms that have too much scroll already. That said, the screen scroll may be something I take a look at in version 3, when it comes trundling inexorably down the line.

That's the plan.

I'm pretty excited, too. The upcoming release is a two-parter. Some of the immediate functionality will be out in the next week or so if everything goes smoothly. The other part is good to go, but I'd like to get some extensive internal testing and tweaking done before it's widely released. More info to come.

Huh, really?

Mind taking a look at River's Rest Town Commons? I'm sure you'll want to chat with GM-Xayle. However, some people are fond of doing spirit beast battling there.

I see why they're able to and there'll be a restriction in place against the Town Commons once the update is live.

Thanks very much (at least from me)!

Actually, I felt kind of like a jerk making that post, but I'm glad to see that in fact, it was a legitimate bug report.
