Pet Names

[fled]

Does anyone know...are pets names assigned on first summoning, or are they pre-assigned to a lok upon creation? Just some trivia i would like to know.

I wish in addition to naming pets that one could /minion-action like kneel or lol...seeing you have total command of your minion, its not unreasonable to think you could force him/her to do certian limited actions.

Like taking a seat in the inn and /m(inion)stripper(dance) on the succ :D

Nobody but the Devs maybe. Unless someone has been able to dig into the code or hack the game somehow, the only way to know what your pet's name is after you've first summoned him.

There is obviously a set of names that the game chooses from. Why not just give us the ability to pick the name from that list? That would be good enough in my book.

Word!

Lost count on how many locks I had to delete before getting an imp without totally stupid, or too hellish name.

(Yeah I hate references to hell, death, satanism and crap like that. Litelock = Lightlock.)

Did you really reroll your first 10 locks just because o' the pet name? I mean sure their weird and kinda hard to pronounce, but does the name of the minion really matter...though I do agree with the fact that should atleast be able to cycle through a list of names..because my minions have wierd names....
Imp: Jubnik
VW:Jhaznagma(it is)
Succy:Bronneri(well that one's not too bad)
Felhunter:Bheedhon
Felguard:Flaaroon(I actually found another one on the same server w/ that name)

What I wonder is what determines what your pet's names will be when you first summon them, is it based on character name, is a random pool of names in which one is assigned to your demon?

I don't think the name is really based on anything, mayhaps just a random name out of many is chosen...like a said, I found another Felguard w/ the same name as mine...

Well im not so sure about "picking the name" unless there is some kind of filter that doesn't let you pick an already picked name for your minion. I would suggest something in between.

If you summon a demon, let's say an Imp. He has his own demonic name cos Demons have mom's that love them and name them (or something)... Anyway if you have that Imp out and he dies.... Well you shouldn't be able to call him back.... for me it makes more sence the next time you summon an imp you summon ANOTHER imp cos the previous died.... If you dismiss the pet... They should remain with their name.

Well someone told me that demon names were random each time you summon them, but do to a bug found by players that allow them to rename their minions this was removed. (i assume this is really old)

Right now i have my mind put on Esthetic Glyphs for warlocks (felfireeeeee!!!) when that war is over we could focus on this one
