I know it was not easy to decorate that pond. It is hard to get stuff locked down in just the right place. Great Job!!!

Does one need to understand that you do not like how the Triton does in combat ?
Why so, if I may ask ?
Other Tamers are quite enthusiast about their Tritons.... why don't you like it much instead ?
Well, for what I have read around, the question of the Triton usefulness as a Combat Pet is open for debate (e.g., the ratio between good/bad Stats ones), but that was not the point of my post.
My impression is that with this Pet the Team got a fast one with the Players: as if it wasn't enough having a GIANT ROACH as one of the most useful Pet, seeing now a bunch of self-dignified Tamers... "slugging around" with this, IMO frankly HIDEOUS creature, makes me laugh my axe off. 😂

I am still in the process of training my one and only Titan. I have been busy working the new high seas content and loving it as well as decorating 2 Keeps and a Castle. A decorators work is never done. I am trying to get a balance between looking great and over crowded. I try to go by the rule less is more. Hopefully I will be able to finish training my Titan soon and use it insted of my Najasaraus which is my go to pet for PVM. When I am done training my Titan I will be beter able to guage its strengths and weaknesses in PVM.

They have healing and I've seen some with impressive overcap wrestle and resist. Saw one yesterday with over 128 wrestle.Smoot said:what makes these better than a Cu? or 2 slot nightmare? wondering if i should get one before event is over. i just dont see much point because you cant ride them but am i missing something?
I run a discorder so I have no real use for overcap wrestle.
After lugging rune beetles and greater dragons, Im just not enthusiastic about walking another pet. I'm passing on this pet.

Tritons are one of the best pets in game.

With or without a pinch of salt?
"Best pet" I cannot say, "most dignified" IMO surely not.

Why anyine cares about the aesthetics of a follower in an entirely ugly gsme is beyond me. Change the art files to reflect your favorite looking pet and move on.

Chill out, dude! 
If you aren't able to elaborate an appropriately funny reply to a little... Triton-in-cheek joke maybe you should consider to revise your level of commitment to the Game... 😂

Pound for pound the strongest pet in game Imo. Make a gargoyle if you don't wanna be on foot

I'm sure it is, but, as I already wrote, this is NOT the point of this thread... oh, darn, useless.Cetric said:Pound for pound the strongest pet in game Imo. Make a gargoyle if you don't wanna be on foot
If nobody else than me see something vaguely... "dysfunctional", or even simply deserving some puns, in the fact that, in the context of a supposedly "High Fantasy" game, instead that with dragons and such, Tamers go merry around on giant roaches and with giant slugs following... well, clearly the "problem" is mine alone.
@Mariah @Rorschach , please be so kind to close this useless thread at your early convenience.

While I wish it was a dragon and wizard game personally.... It also has dinosaurs, ninjas, samarais, robots, gargoyles, gunpowder cannons, electricity, and purple llamas. So while I get where ur coming from, toting around a slug or beetle isn't exactly out of context.

Well, the purple llamas at least have an hystorical reason to exist: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_MinterCetric said:While I wish it was a dragon and wizard game personally....

Wrestling up to 130, Resist up to 190, DEX up to 220 (Movement Speed is capped at 190 DEX), Energy Resist up to 90 (third most important Resist), innate Healing, and no wasted Specials. Tritons are incredibly powerful. A Chiv+AI Triton out damages a Chiv+AI Cu against most foes, due to using AI more often, and landing hits more frequently.
Tritons are also perfectly suited for the Disco+Conductive Blast build that synergizes extremely well with a Death Ray Tamer/Mage, for huge damage. This is a template i've basically trademarked. 
Here's a decent Triton, which still has enough TP left to add 120 Scrolls to all of it's skills.

Out of curiosity,what is the app above that you are using to plan the training of a pet ?

It's the EC with Pinco's UI. Lore windows are more convenient in it, since it has everything in one window.popps said:Out of curiosity,what is the app above that you are using to plan the training of a pet ?

The Triton graphic looks like a green Tadpole.
Took me so long, finally "decided" to spend 140,000 points to get one and I have also placed it on display instead. I agree this is really ugly, looks like a tadpole mate with a slime or vice versa.
I wondered what Triton mean and found Googling "Triton God" actually reveals so many nice sketches and illustrations - that are far from a tadpole.
