Perhaps I am missing the point here, maybe I require a little more education to such matters or perhaps this thread orbits around an issue which is not an issue, just a way to balance out the output of meta-pets. The best fix would be to remove them completely and be done with this tripe once and for all, no offence to the team who scripted them as the work is pretty tasty in itself, but the output from these things are just well, frightening at the very least and way overpowered.
I call for more nerf's to them, if your pet dies, it does not lose skill but it takes an HOUR to rest and you are unable to use it for said hour. If it dies twice in a period of four hours, then you can not use it for two hours and its loyalty drops one level and stays there for the remainder of the day. Also, if your pet attacks ANY player red or blue using ALL KILL, there is a 6% chance it gets a new buff called 'blood lust', where it goes completely over the top with a damage increase of 20% and its defence increases by 10%, the pet can now attack everyone including the owner, is very difficult to control unless you cast dispel on the pet *the more people it kills, the angrier it gets*. All guard is not included in this.
pets are made for kill and die, spend so mch time and gold for statloss is for a carebear server/pplLast post from me:
Relics make the meta, not skills (it is a nice bonus)
Pump gold into relics instead of SS for a better return on investment.
Summoning ball charges are cheaper than ~50k worth of SS. Ring of forgiveness + pet ball, and if you blew your RoF for your farm session have a mage at the ready with a safety gate for your tamer to hop to an ankh or town healer if you can't safely recall + res. There are plenty of safe places to do this from. You should always have an alt mage with a copy of your runebooks for such an occasion.
Have quality guildmates. Guildmates can be a godsend in bad situations even if you are out solo farming.
^ the above is not a 100% surefire way to avoid pet death, but should go far in keeping your costs down.
It's not that big of a deal.
I guess we should just remove all fun aspects of the game while we are at it eh. just get rid of it all caue u dont like something we could see be improved slighty. Above this post that I replied to you went off saying that we want more boosts? no we are not asking for any boots what so ever.
We are simply addressing the matter that maybe we don't need experience such a stat loss like before, so instead of dumping money into my pet etc i can maybe someday afford some relics, and afford to keep him balled etc.
I strongly urge to to go get a tamer to 115 taming, buy a meta or raid for one, get a nice stat WW, start lving them, ball it and get the stone, and revist this forum long long time from now.

I am not against stat loss for the Meta, @Darkarna i think statloss is 100 Percent completely reasonable , however what I do think is stupid is when someone kills me lures a paragon and it knocks 10k worth of XP off my meta. As far as statloss goes i think its perfectly reasonable considering in this era of UO there was no bonding in the first place. Then again you could have 5 dragons and a nightmare. LOLThis is besides the point but I will answer. No, I do not play it nor would I ever since apparently the roots of this server was supposed to be as close to the original times as possible. You already have something which resembles a walking nuclear missile launcher and expect there to be no consequence if it dies, I consider this to be somewhat greedy.
Defense Talisman?What they need to do is make pet worthless in pvp, period. The shit is just plain stupid, if I wanna fight a fucking mob I will go farm the dungeons.
You can farm millions of gold with relative ease but want the drawback removed? There's no way pet stat loss should be removed.
pet stat loss has been removed for factioners thats the amusing part non consensual pvpers get pet stat loss and consensual pvpers pay 5k and get no loss. (5k is a tiny amount of gold the ss woudl cost alot more)
