What is the role of the Grunity...

Post by greensteeldragon »

... is it a horse, a pet, just a character, or does it even have a purpose?

Puchiguso (I REFUSE to call them Grunties) exsist mainly for transportation. Some keep them just as a sort of imaginary pet, since you can care for them; in a way, they're just an extra part of The World.

A horse? close they're more of a pig hybrid. Their purpose is to make moving around the fields less time consuming and they are also used for trading, well at least in the games, but as for the animes they were used for riding on once as a blood hound.

They allow a person to move throughout the fields without opening portals or being attacked by monsters. They also carry rare items you can trade them for...

Also they can smell objects out on the field, and are also used in a race minigame.

Or to sum it up, think Chocobos with a few extras.

I know what a Grunty is used for.. but a Grunity... that's something I've never heard of ;)

Also... ECF - does that mean you call Street Fighter Alpha, Street Fighter Zero..?

Well I refuse to call Kunoichi by its US name, Nightshade. :x

To me Grunties look like a cross between a hippo, a pig, and a cow.
