Love Puppies/Heart Puppies and selfish people.
Sun, 07/03/2011 - 07:24
Why is it every run I see a love puppy, there is one selfish party member who rambos the life out of it before killing anything else, in the vain attempt for a heart pendant. Yeah man, theyre valuable, theyre useful, but damn, you cant sell it cos it auto-binds, even IF you get it that is. Isnt it more logical to kill it last after everything else, after healing your entire party - THEN loot it, as opposed to, oh i dont know, the largish chance of having your party being wiped out, and then having them begrudgingly revive you at the cost of their own energy because youre a greedy robotic ass?
the people who already know about love puppies have no excuse, and those that dont, i always tend to shout "dont kill the pink one!".
to add insult to injury, the unnamed person in this case, complained about me not staying for the boss, undoubtedly because he would have needed someone to kill the boss whille he gunned from around the outside.
one of these days i hope to see a http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Gun_Puppy#Gold_Puppy so i can sit and watch whilst the greedy lot try in vain to kill it for its loot. and then not revive them.
all things being said, those people are always going to be unreliable, running off to grab an owlite feather, over killing those walls of robots threatening 3/4 of their party, finding some other way to endanger everyone for their own *random chance* at personal gain, but just once, id kind of like to actually USE a healing puppy to make any run just that much smoother, as im sure a few others would too. on that note.. anyone else had any situations where greed has overpowered teammates' logic?

The only time I saw a love
The only time I saw a love puppy I was running Snarbolax solo. I was already at full health, so I killed it. Only dropped scrap metal. Boo.

<3 Puppies
Only found a love puppy once, I let it lovingly heal me and I just realized what trinkets it drops.
Also, I love it when greedy teammates rush to find and claim the biggest chunk of mineral, ignorant of the fact that we all get the same minerals at the end ^^

@Comradeer: Size matters.

I found a Heart Puppy once
I found a Heart Puppy once and me and my partner didn't attack it once we saw hearts flying out of its mouth. It was during the stage right before Royal Jelly and it was the first of the 4 gates we went through so after each other gate we ran back to the puppy to heal up. Finally before the fight that comes after finding at least 3 keys I ran back to kill the puppy since you can't go back there anyway. It didn't drop anything though.
About the minerals I jsut HATE it when I'm attacking the mineral chunk and some other guy sits right there waiting to see if its a huge one just so they can take it. Seriously what the hell?
Also do things like Trinkets and Gear from boxes and enemy drops distribute evenly like materials? The other day there was a Brute Jelly Shield on the ground and I did NOT want the other guy to take it after having to revive him at least 4 times in the same level. I rushed up there just in case it was first come first serve but I'm not sure if it may have just been luck that I got it. I'm glad I got it though because the only thing the other guy was good for was being a meat shield. Besides I wound up having to waste 10 energy going down to Royal Jelly which I did not want to do but the game bugged out or something, the elevator just froze and didn't even give me an option to go up or down.

So many scrubs.
I always fight with my friends.
Less stupidity, more good times. You should try it sometime. Me and my bros always share the things we get while dungeoneering.

I found a Love puppy once . . .
And I was the idiot that smashed it up - not realising what it was -and the person I was running with put me in my place and I've learned never to do it again!
I agree, there should be rules in running a tier in a group and you should help eachother as much as possible - it is a team game after all. I tend to run with friends or guild members as we all know the rules going in so it's a much smoother ride. we meet up after and swop mats too.

Ironically enough, after
Ironically enough, after posting here, I did 2 runs of Emerald Falcon gate. Both times I encountered a Love Puppy in the Grim Gallery and on the 2nd a teammate got a pendant :P

I found a love puppy earlier
I found a love puppy earlier today while doing a snarbolax run. It was interesting, as in the 100s of turrets I've seen before that was the only one I've seen be a love puppy so far. I left it until last, and since I was in a monster room I had to kill it. It dropped nothing =/

Existential Crisis
I was doing a Snarbolax run today as well, and I somehow manage to make one of the monster cages to disappear along with the disappearing block...
At first I wondered where the blocks go when they magically get poofed, do they go to an alternate dimension and float eternally across a vast plane or perhaps they just cease to exist, their atoms and quarks phasing out of the material world. I felt sorry for the monster for the fate I bestowed upon him. Such a fate seems so much worse than to have fallen by my blade.
I began wondering what sort of monster I had banished into non-existence from our mortal plane. My heart skipped and beat and I choked, what if... what if it was a Love Puppy?

Many people seem to think,
Many people seem to think, love puppies heal the enemy, when first seeing one. While killing something immediately that might drop a rare item doesn't give you an advantage, killing the healers first & quickly makes absolute sense. That's not always an explanation, but it might be more often than you think.

People need to read the wiki
People need to read the wiki more and stop killing things they don't understand. If everyone had a wiki in those alien sci fi movies, then the universe would be so peaceful.

"save the love puppies",
"save the love puppies", reminds me of the "save the slimes" or whatever on the minecraft board :D pity you cant buy a trolley or a wagon to put em on and drag them with you (for the lulz). maybe OOO would be kind enough to make 60day wagons for 500CE to have a pet monster follow you around (and not do anything - kinda like maple pets *shudders at maple*)

id give them my soul to have a tameable, rideable tortrodrone if i had to...
I saw a love puppy once, I didnt kill it, because it healed me and I didnt know it dropped very rare health trinkets... I facepalm'ed when I realised what it dropped and the fact I will probably never see one again. :'(
