New Feature!? Please Read

[Malefas]

I really wish I took a screenshot, but since I don't have any background programs to do so, you'll have to take my word on it.


Anyways, after killing Serket today (got claw and ring, woo!), I got a Raise III (his poison killed me, damn scorp) and the weirdest thing happened...

When I got raised, Duke (my wyvern), got raised as well. He was at 1% HP like I was. Is this some sort of new feature? Or is it a glitch perhaps? If you're wondering if it died the same time I did, he didn't. Duke died well towards the beginning of the battle because of all that AE/poison.

So I'm left to wonder, new feature slipped in there by SE? Or possibly just a glitch?

Anyone else have a similar experience recently?

I've never had it happen.

Similar experience happened to me last night. My LS and I did the Windy eco and after the fight, I noticed mywyvern was poisoned. I tried to rush back so I could uncap and Spirit Link, but we didn't make it and he died.

However, when a WHM friend of mine teleport-holla'ed us, Donryu was waiting on the other side. Alive.

Very strange, but still very nice.

It happend to me once but under different circumstances

During a PT at Crawlers nest my Wyvern died during a chainin
of Flys.

shortly after my wyvern died I disconnected due to lag. when
I returned back, my wyvern was there waiting for at 1%hp
It was quite strange. most likely its a glitch thou.

I don't think its a glitch anymore.

Last night I did m9-2 for San d'Oria, and low and behold, my Wyvern died from AE/poison during the fight. After I finished the battle, I got warped back to Jeuno and logged out for the night.

Today however, when I zoned out to East Ronfaure, my Wyvern was waiting there with 1% HP again.

So if I lose my Wyvern... all I have to do is log out? :sweat:

I wish they would've released something telling us this in a patch information, or if it is a glitch, well, its universal across all the servers.

Similar glitch...

I've had the same thing happen to me in Garlaige just recently... my wyvern got smacked, a BLM or someone escaped us, and there was Pfeil again, with, big surprise, 1% HP. I'd had it happen once before that, but I can't remember the circumstances. But, I thought I was going crazy, glad to know I'm not the only it happened to.

I really don't think that was something done on purpose though. I mean, there are/were a SURPRISING number of glitches with the wyverns. Remember all the dead wyverns sitting at zone lines or at the Vazhl crystal? And I also ran into a glitch where taking the elevator in Delkfutt's Tower dropped my wyvern's HP from 100% to 1%. Just... strange.

Someone in my LS reported this the other day. The situation was similar to what totti591 described where the DRG went LD. I assumed it was a database update issue.

I died and was raised over the weekend though (what the @#$%#@ was that exoray doing there) and didn't get my Wyvern back.

It sounds like a glitch to me. From what I have read here I think the key is zoning (which would include logging out and back in or going LD).

[Malefas]

I'm trying to figure out how this glitch occurs, but its basically really hard to replicate. I've tried logging out/forcing a d/c, but haven't been able to get my Wyvern back. But, randomly I get my Wyvern back after weird things, like chocoing towards a zone, hop off choco, zone in, and have Wyvern again. :sweat:

[fpok]

Same here.

Was fighting Darters in Boyahda and my wyvvern died early on. I died due to an add later. when I got a raise, my Wyvern came back as well.

I do remember using the Dismiss ability through out the day and possibly while in Boyahda.

Hey Alipes its me Laduke from midgardsormr! I think you blocked me because you haven't been on in a while...Anyways I don't think I have ever noticed anything of that sort...

[ibroyles]

I was actually in a party the other day with a guy who noticed this. What he was doing is whenever his dragon would die (he seemed to think it only worked when it died from poison), he would zone and the dragon would come back when he zoned. This is probably why a lot of people are noticing it after an escape/warp/teleport.

In the party I was in, we were in Valkurm, and we had 2 DRGs (don't ask...its Valkurm). Both of the DRGs wyverns died and the one who noticed the glitch zoned, got his wyvern back. Then, the other DRG was like "wow," so he zoned and got his back too. I was surprised but I just passed it off as a trick that a lot of DRGs used...guess its not common knowledge really. So yeah, I think the key is zoning shortly after the wyvern died, you shouldn't have to log out...but maybe if you log out/log in it will also work.

[SolidSnake207]

Great... The wyvern is always with us... Comes back to life if I zone shortly after it's death... Why is it still a two hour? ~_~;;;

Anyways that shit might just be a glitch. Wyverns have been acting up for a few months like that time I ran around with 3 Rygors in Delkfut (too bad only one attacked... farming would've been sweet)..

[Kafeen]

Strange, I've never had this. I got killed 4 times in Garlage yesterday, but I didn't get Nanaja back when I got raise.

Haha... you missed my massive Duke train I made the other day. I did the duplication trick on the elevator in Upper Delkfutt's tower, then I thought to myself, hell, what happens if I get it to work again and again?

I had like 5 Wyverns until I got greedy and tried again and only came back out with 1. :spin:
