Talk:Jingle Bear

It looks pissed off about the collar. 76.200.181.138 21:43, 19 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Yay, give up the pet I have had for years, or get this. I wonder what I am going to do? Screw that, this thing is nothing more than a Polar Bear with a collar around it's neck. I guess I can see some of the fotm tamers getting it, but it is still a reward aimed at /r. I guess if nothing else it is a form of showing off but since you can't see it in outposts it isn't even as good as a mini or a festival hat. Anyway good luck to those people that actually want this thing, it isn't hard to get, but the reward I guess is equal to the amount of work put in.

geus i get it on my char withouth a pet yet but there is NO WAY that im gonna give up my li'll moa for a dressed polar bear

WTF, I can't tame it. "That creature is not an animal"... TarEnethil 22:39, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Nvm, just loaded the update, now I can tame it. Before the update, it showed up as a lvl5 Ranger, now its just lvl 5 Jingle Bear TarEnethil 22:44, 19 December 2008 (UTC)


 * hmmm, Dire Black Widow or regular boring old polar bear with collar? Might be fun for hero pet though :P.  ∞ ∞ Ipo™ ∞ ∞  22:46, 19 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Are we sure it does not become a normal white bear when we get to another area ? — TulipVorlax 00:54, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

This thing sucks
Where's my cosplay Gwen? 01:49, 20 December 2008 (UTC)


 * It's not all bad. It makes a jingley sound. You just have to set the effects volume up incredibly loudly, so that using a skill will deafen you. You also have to make sure your camera is within a couple feet of it. So, yeah, pretty much, it does suck. N Segick 02:06, 20 December 2008 (UTC)


 * She's good for people who aren't usually a ranger. I'm N/A by nature, and I switched to N/R to get the pet because I thought she was cute. But I'll probably only bring her out at the holidays for the special quests (I'd much rather be /A the rest of the year), and I'm certainly not ditching my ele's beloved Melandru's Stalker for it.

Hall of Monuments
So, anyone bother to get one of these up to Lv20, and see what kind of statue it gives in the Hall? If it's a generic "Animal Companion" that's one thing, but a custom monument would be something else. Mujaki 04:21, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Probably generic companion statue, but then again, Anet's put enough effort into this wintersday someone might have though of that and added it in. Unfortunately, Jingle Bear doesn't go hostile, so no death leveling.[[Image:Entrea Sumatae.png|Entrea Sumatae]] Entrea   [Talk]  04:29, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * yeah that kinda sucks, i wanted to death lvl one but w/e i got it anyways and im leveling in in HM on those frost wurms outside boreal station im just takin a bonder hero with life bond and life barrier and im using call of protection on it with various pet attacks such as poisonous bite, since the wurms still degen after they go underground. and im taking high dmging pet attacks such as enraged lunge and brutal strike while buffing it with my monk using strength and honor and i'm using great dwarf weapon and feral aggression, hopefully it evolves normally like other pets, and it will turn Dire.--24.216.121.135 17:18, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I got a method that gets level 20 in 30 min ;D No frost wurms req'd--Darksyde  22:37, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * orly? plz share =P--24.216.121.135 03:47, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * See my talk page for it. Just got it to level 20 and went to HoM with it. No special statue. Also, the method i used has always gotten a hearty pet, but for some reason, my Jingle Bear didn't evolve. It remained Elder. So maybe this pet doesn't evolve at all, which seems likely as its a light green ally instead of a dark green ally when you find it, implying it's unique in some way.--Darksyde  05:30, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * The White Moa are also light-green (I call it yellow) and don't turn hostile, so it's not unique, at least. &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 06:01, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I swear i've seen white moas with dark green. Either way, i'm ditching this thing once i work up the patience to go for the phoenix statue.--Darksyde  07:08, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

--it evolves normally --Wikiguru 22:10, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Re-indent! Darksyde, thanks for answering my original question of the statue. Just so you know, "Elder" is a final evolution, the balanced version between "Dire" and "Hearty." Mujaki 23:29, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, i know what elder is, my jingle bear(level 20) doesn't have it in his name when i hit /namepet. Idk how you got dire, my method always gets hearty and mine has 480 health. But anyways, if you guys want to confuse some of the more gullible GW users, name this thing "Albino Panda" =P--Darksyde  07:15, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Maybe you did something different that made it elder this one time. Or maybe your albino panda hates you.[[Image:Entrea Sumatae.png|Entrea Sumatae]] Entrea   [Talk]  18:17, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Still doesn't explain why mine isn't "Elder Jingle Bear" when i reset its name.--Darksyde  02:26, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

After Wintersday?
Will the bear disappear? -- mrguildboi (:  23:29, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
