This!!! I have so many issues trying to trade for items. I would also like if they were as organized in the archive as they are when you go to dress up your pet, so searching for them would be a lot easier! (For example, being able to search “teeth, mouth, & nose” or “deer fitting items” just like when you go to dress up because I have been STRUGGLING.)

Dates would be nice so I can figure out when/where they came from as opposed to taking a stab in the dark trying to find the item in the archive, even if rarities might be a bit much to hope for
And honestly I feel like adding rarities to items might just add more chaos

I like the idea of adding the one new category! I definitely feel that the current spread is not truly showing the range but just spreading them out with the current labels probably won't feel much different.
With one extra category there is room to grow but with four extras I think it could be overwhelming, especially for newer or returning players!
We could always add in the other four going forward if players feel that one has not solved the issue. But four new ones all at once might be a lot!!

I think to me the ideal would be a category between rare and very rare and uncommon and rare. Whatever works and people want the most I’ll go with. I think a shake up would do things good.

I definitely don’t like the idea of four new categories. Adding one more or two I think would be better than adding four. It would be so confusing and very overwhelming, especially for new players and returning players. In my opinion, changing the rarities, and adding four new categories, isn’t going to change the way most people feel about list pets. Which I feel they’re trying to do. If they add four new categories, I feel like people might be happy at first, but then they will regret wanting it. The pet trading issue isn’t the rarity system. It’s demand pushing. The userbase could easily fix it themselves if they would stop overpricing pets. But that’s just my opinion! I’m not sure how much I would play if we got four new rarities, just because I know for me, it would be very, very overwhelming and make trading even more complicated.

I’m excited to see how December 18th would go with the new rarities. Especially with the box distribution

P.s. I don’t understand these graphs? Why would omgsc be just as few in number as omgsr? Shouldn’t there be more omgsc pets > VC > C > UC > and so on?

Yeah at first I found it confusing as well, but try thinking of it as: rarity tells you how many 'copies' of 1 pet exist—which is a different metric than what you may be thinking. Yes there are more OMGSC pets, but they are just 'copies' of the same pet! The charts show how many individual pets would have that rarity type, not how many exist overall.

I wish there was some kind of in-between option from adding 1 option and 4 options! I think adding 2 options (for Very Uncommon & Extremely Rare) would be my preference and would be a nice middle ground. Especially because the issue isn't common and below pets—the issue lies with higher rarity pets.
