3.0 Sidekick Thread

My comparison to Pokemon initially was more to do with having vast numbers of pets to level up and the potential time that might be invested to do so, rather than forcing sidekicks to battle each other. Might be an interesting idea down the track, but not sure it could compete with regular characters' combat.

Yay for @Jose! Thanks for filling in the gaps.

All sounds great. Really feels like having customizable 'pets'. I'm imagining you could max out Pumbaa's "detect" ability and give him a specific item that increases chances of getting "grubs" or other food. And then he becomes your go to "sniffer dog/hog" type pet. You can max out attack on Dr Octopus and take him with you into the Takeover. You can give Rapunzel lots of defence (and maybe healing ability??) and take her with you in survival mode (if there is an equivalent in 3.0).

I'll admit, I was late to the the playing with and gaining sidekicks in 2,0 but this all does sound like it will add fun new elements to 3.0

Outlandish foods?

Like Gummi Berries?

Just saying. We need Gummi Berries...

@braiko, it has been confirmed that there will be a survival mode in 3.0 like in 2.0! That will make the sidekicks even more useful! in 2.0 the sidekicks were a bit useless, so I'm glad they're way better in 3.0 so I can use them more often.

@jose.abalos Yay! Thank you for the info! I'm so glad to hear that's how it'll work.

I love survival mode. LOL

I suggested in a thread the idea of sidekick battles, but would actually like to see them turn based like pokemon. Would be a totally new element to the game. No matter what though, I am sure sidekicks will be doing more as the franchise progresses.
