How about making a shrink deed on the token or gold stone, pricy enough that people dont use it like a pet leach but to help us bio makers sell our bios, with a shrink deed we could sell our bios on vendors!

That's an awesome idea.  I have a bio pet in my stables that I never use, specifically because I can not shrink it.  If we could shrink them, I think more would be interested in exploring this craft and purchasing bio pets from those that have mastered this art, such as in the original poster....Master BIO Dude.

To get around the "non shrink" status of Bio pets, I usually unstable the one I want to use and tell him to "stay"...once I get to the area I want to use him I use [getpet and pay the 10k per pet to bring him to me. I would LOVE it if they were shrinkable to avoid having to use this method. Bios are a fantastic custom component of this shard and it is a shame that they are not more functional to allow more widespread use...and I agree, Thorg's bio pets are superb and worth using.

As an additional consideration, shrinking bios would not only allow selling on NPC vendors, but would also permit having more than you can stable...my stable is crowded with bios.

this would be so much more handy for people to buy them as not alot of peole use forums and it saves thorgil lining them up at bb to people to see lol

plus a deed is a 1 time use anyway, plus if other use who wants to pay 100k tokens just to take a pet out hunting

the bio pets are diffrent then most pets in the game because you can get a 3 slot pet with all max stats   so there needs to be a downfall since there is such a huge bonus   i think making then not shrinkable is perfect i just think they need a little more base damage to account for the werewolves and evo dragons of the shard

I agree, the idea behind a shrink deed is just to be able to sell them on a vendor (hense the high price for the deed to make sure people dont just use it to go farm with shrunken bios in their back pack). I would leave them shrunk when i make them, but once you unshrunk them for the first time, the stats change so i have to ''open'' them. Would make selling realy easier and reduce the number of messages on the trade channel as well! :P

If not a shrink deed, maybe have the possibility to make a statue on which stats and skills can be viewed!

There are methods in game already that make the transportation of bio pets quite easy. Interesting thoughts here though.

Like i said, i idea is to make it simpler to sell them not transport them, transport is easy enough like you said with a pet summoning ball!

  Why create something new; why not ask for something that already exists.

~~Fact:

  We stable pets...

  We pay to house and feed them...

~~ My Idea:

~~Create a system that allows use to sell our pets and BIO's through the Animal Trainer NPC vendor.

~~The game server knows how to keep a record of what we have stabled; why can't it also keep of a record of what we have stabled and for sale to the public?

I really like this idea, in my mind it would be nice being able to scroll through stabled pets of your own and maybe in the same gump decide if they are for sale or not within that gump, if a search function was included that would be even better, say youre after a dragonoid bio you can search for that, mountable, search for that, etc etc and in this way you would be able to see all Bios for sale from all sellers.

Indeed.

Plus add in a nice, but reasonable, gold sink 'Pet For Sale' fee, and the economy thrives.
