We aren't getting minion battling now so could minion stats be removed? Not all minions have them anyway. This could make the zoo quicker to load.
Also, if stats are removed, could we have a mass add option because it's a pain having to add minions one by one?
I agree that the stats are pointless browser time wasters and server time wasters. They benefit nobody. Get rid of them for now.
Mass-add for minions already exists. You can mass-add minions through the Collection column of quickstock if you have a Gold Account. If it doesn't work for you, then you turned it off in your Preferences. Turn it back on.
Thanks for the information. I think it would be good to have a mass add option in the zoo itself of the lines of the Pet Treasure add, though.
Wait, they scrapped the battling? Where was this announced? Not that I was that excited about it, I'm just wondering where it was said.
OK - it wasn't officially announced but it was Beta tested in 2015 and the last post in the Beta Testing topic is dated 04/6/16.
Minion battling works right now - click on a minion with stats, you can battle them.

Is there any point to battling with them? The project still seems to have been abandoned because a lot of the minions weren't allocated stats.
