I don't like the idea of this pokemon feature in MS. I can't help myselr, it sounds really broken too, if those mobs can attack on monsters.. Now what? You just summon 3 Pink Beans and go afk? Not to mention that in gMS, hackers would be on this since day one.

I think you're over exaggerating. I don't think a level 155 monster doing 30k damage to a level 150+ monster will get you anywhere anytime fast. Not only that, but their vitality runs out faster than you think. It's not like they're running around doing the damage cap to 15 monsters at a time. Really, the only use they have, other than SOME of the special effects VERY FEW OF THEM give, they're only SLIGHTLY useful for SLIGHTLY more DPS on bosses (and the fact that they can bypass Damage Reflect and whatnot).

Also, they can't move much more than about 10 feet away from your character (Maple scaling) without hitting a limit. They're like a pet - they can't stray too far away from you. You have to keep moving for them to be able to go from one monster to the next.

And yeah, you can't summon more than one of the same monster at a time.

Oh and they have the pre-Chaos accuracy system (actually, worse, I think). They can't attack mobs too far above their level. The more levels above your Familiar's level, the more it misses. When I say "pre-Chaos accuracy system," I mean they cannot attack monsters more than about 20 levels above them or they'll never hit.

I hope the more powerfull bosses are Link Skill only.
Before there are Dragon Riders everywhere...

Those are Spirit Weapon skills. Monster Familiars work completely differently.

I love the idea of monster summoning, but I kinda hope that they wipe out the Angelic Bless ring's animation if they come. Maplestory has become rather cluttered...

Currently, at any given moment, I have Angelic Bless, an Android, and my one pet hovering around me. Plenty of people have three pets, adding to the absurdity.
If we get the Monster Familiar and its exclusive profession, people could theoretically have all of the above plus three monsters floating around them? Yeah, that seems excessively screen-cluttering.

You just gave me the most absurd idea ever.
3 Jr Balrog Pets, Rog weapon, Rog Mount, Jr Rog and Crog as Familiar Summon, and as Soul Skill Balrog boss.
Dang, that would be Roggy.
Anyway, anyone got a list of Familiar effects?

Thats the spirit!
I already have my perm Balrog Mount, Balrog Chair, Bain Weapon.
Also, I cant help but disliking the huge ball above the familiar.

Let us hope no one beats you to that.

For most people, it's going to be an utterly random clusterfuck.

Actually, thinking off your Balrog idea, I just became really sad...
Coolie Zombie + Minor Zombie + Riche + 3 Jr. Reapers would be awesome with the Zombie Ring effect.
Zombie Army!

Rebirth was scrapped two days into the test server that opened up that introduced it. Rebirth will never be implemented in the official servers.

i'm pretty sure the fact that it lasted two days and then disappeared is proof enough that they realized it was the dumbest pomegranate they could possibly do
