So, with another Data Dump comes a bit of info.
Besides the mention of the Life Day Pack which I expect to be the next Cartel Pack, there is a new pet mention:
abl.itm.vanity_pet.bird.crested_orokeet
abl.itm.vanity_pet.bird.crested_orokeet/2/0
abl.itm.vanity_pet.bird.crested_orokeet/2/1
The Crested Orokeet is most likely an Orokeet with a special ornament of some kind and I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s in the box.
It’d be the first alternate version of a pet though so that will be interesting.
Unfortunately, the Cartel Market is down on the test server 🙁 so no trying it out… BUT THAT MAKES IT ALL THE MORE SUSPICIOUS…
Bad/good news on pets depending on how you look at it.

And to this I say: URGH NOW I HAVE TO WASTE MONEY
I guess I’ll start saving credits just in case some sell them on the market….
