Changes

Not much is known about the scroll, very likely because there isn't much to know about it. It is a frequent drop, it doesn't have much of an affect on gameplay and is, more than anything, a vanity item. This is likely as close as a player will find to a "non-combat pet" in Diablo III, unlike what is seen in [[World of WarCraft]] where pet collectors are often more rabid than their wards.

The scroll lasts for five minutes, and the pet stays in a fairly close orbit around the character, which makes the utility of the scroll dubious at best. [[Gold]] is picked up in Diablo III by simply walking over it, and the pet does not stray far from its master, so the player would have to walk very close to the gold in any event simply to have the pet pick it up.

Yet, the point of the companion scroll very likely isn't to impact gameplay in some purposeful way, but to add some sort of fun vanity item that has a limited duration and is completely optional to use.

It did not, of course, take very long for the stout cries of "Immersion!" and "diabloish!" to ring forth from the forums, and fans who felt that having a pet rabbit trail a character decked out in [[Legendary]] items throughout [[Hell]] wasn't very appealing or, at least, it wasn't "Diablo"[http://diablo.incgamers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=810099].
