I was asked to develop this idea bit more.
This is my pitch~ for pets.
Pets in the OP world,
Its apparent that in the Pirate world there's some animals(like parrots) that served the pirates as pets and in OP this was no different we see a few instances with pets on the show. (Ex. Arlong's Seacow)
Now this is my proposal for this feature,we could have different pets varying from size,type and all with different abilities to help there user.
What are this abilities?
Some could be buffs, for example a Parrot could help a Navigator or overall help exploration,give buffs .Since there still a lot of things on "Pending" I can't really specify.
Others could have special skills that affect the surroundings, like a Bird type that explores a % of a map, another one that catches fish while your on the ship for the cook,etc.
The last type would be of course, Battle Types, they aid in combat from Akamaru style for close range combat to Giant types that aid in Ship battles.Battle types would quality is determined by the skills they have and there AI.
Of course depending the type of pet the req,price,quest dificulty varies, Battle Types being hardest ones to acquire on good quality,etc.
This is of course just a pitch for the idea.I actually think this would be a nice idea, specially if its something everyone can get.
Anyways Share any Opinions you have on this.
