Show us your Guild Wars character and win a Miniature Companion! photo

With all these new MMOs coming out, I know it must be difficult to love with the one you're with, but sometimes such dedication can pay off. For example, if you happen to play Guild Wars, you know that Miniature Pets are handy in towns and fun to trade with other players. The Miniature Grawl you see above, for instance, was only given out at special events such as Comic-Con, Gen-Con and the Penny Arcade Expo.

Destructoid has five of this uncommon little dude to give away to the first five people who respond to this post with a picture of their Guild Wars character in the comments. What an easy way to make a new friend (even if he is a monster!) Show me what you've got, Dtoiders!

Yeah, minipets are only for show in towns. But hell, I want one. I only have 1 other.

This reminds me that if anyone is interested in joining a detructoid guild let me know. This would be zero-commitment, and really mostly a placeholder until GW2 comes out. I already have a guild to myself, as well as all three campaigns, EoTN, and plenty of stuff, so yeah, just let me know.

meh, #6 is good for making a Dtoid account; taking, cropping, and uploading a picture; then posting.

Codes sent! Thanks for participating and sorry about the pets in battle shit -- I don't play Guild Wars and got the wrong impression when I read up on them on the website. Anyway, enjoy the Miniatures ^__^

Hahaha not a problem, I'm just a terrible person who feels the need to correct everything.

This contest made me sign up for Destructoid after months of reading, so I guess it was worth it.

Is the email slow or did I make a mistake?

@TeeJay -- I sent it to the email you signed up for Dtoid under -- is that one still correct?

I didn't want to win the miniatures, I get one each character birthday, and I have four characters in 3 years.

But, for the lolz:

@Colette - Yep, that's my email but I've not received anything. Checked the spam folder too. Will I provide a different email?

Any D-Toid guild info give me a shout, Jaime Kratian on Nightfall. Would post a pic but my GW computer isn't on right now.

Damn it destructoid. Post these contests after I wake up. Not while I'm sleeping. >.<

Ohh well... One for the gallery. My monk: Viewtiful Joe.



@viewtifulzfo: Feel The Hatred: W/E

Frenzy in slot 1, Heal Sig in slot 2, and Elementalist skills in slots 5 to 7 (Looks like Lava Font, Armor of Earth, and Ward Against Elements).

Ward Against Elements is 15 freaking energy alone. Warriors only have 20 base energy. Top it off with the other skills at 10 energy per and cyclone axe at 5 energy and you'll be at 0 energy within 2 seconds of entering combat.

Frenzy and Heal Sig are both -40 armor while being used bringing you down from 80 armor to 0... Even alone you don't have a frenzy cancel and you're just asking for something to rape you. Frenzy is a PvP skill.

Also "For Greater Justice"? Double adren gain for just Executioner's Strike???

RAGE!!!!!
