    Yes, draik looks very ugly, but supposedly its a dragon. Now everyone digs a dragon don't they. Now when one digs a dragon another digs it too. Demand expands and inflation rises. Same with darigan look. Paint it and it looks evil, cool no?

    I like the darigan look, but don't understand why everyone goes for draik. Who cares, they give a mighty profit this way.

    it costs a lot to get a draik (unless u get lucky) so i guess people get one to make their account look rich i guess

    the price is a mix between it being a limited pet and its required for an avatar. They look alright in some colors, but the basic model isnt so attractive.

    I think it's all about the look it gives your account. it tells people that you have money. Kind of like "look at me, I have a Draik"

    I wouldn't want one, I really don't like them.
    but I have to admit, even I've thought how cool it would be to have one, and be able to silently show off with it

    I really don't like Draik, but I bought an egg (basic colour) only for the avatar. I was in no need of money, so I decided to use them, taking advantage from the decrease of eggs price.
    I'm thinking about what to do with it... resell? Transfer to another account? Zap it? Dunno!
    I loved Krawk, in the old version... they were really awesome >.<

    No, you can't create it as new pet 'cause it's a limited pet. A draik egg is the same of a morphing potion... but now it's less expansive, that's why I've bought the egg, not the potion^^'

    TNT as usual creating repeated items that are seemingly useless.

    oh come to think of it what is the difference between a transmogrification potion and a morphing potion.

    transmogrification potion = morphs your pet into a mutant
    morphing potion = turns your pet into the pet specified in the MP name [eg. Blue Kiko MP turns your pet into a blue kiko]

    It's a restricted pet, therefore making you look all shiny and special if you have one.

    Personally I think krawks are better.

    I think its just because its a limited pet, lots of people want it. Kind of like chompy was in big demand along time ago, but not as big as a draik lol.
