Re: Beta/PTR Request - Re: Core Shamans
That's basically it. Yes, you can turn off pet sounds. But then you turn off ALL pet sounds, period, and to me that makes them less 'real'. The point is, like the previous poster said, I don't want to have to globally alter my game settings because one pet is infuriating to have with me, it's stupid...

Re: Analysis of new Pet Abilities
The only boss I can think of that's disarmable in Wrath is Jedoga... I can't think of any raid bosses offhand that don't pop up a big fat immune when you try. And most raid bosses are immune to cast-time slows and interrupts save for a couple of generally non-important spells.

Re: Analysis of new Pet Abilities
I think the main thing here that makes a lot of these abilities feel useless is that about half of them don't work on bosses. Oh, sure, they're great on (most) trash, but... anything that says 'cast time slow' or 'disarm' or 'interrupt'.... is basically a trash ability when you get to anything that ...

Re: Beta/PTR Request - Re: Core Shamans
I think of all the SBs, I like Gondria's noises the best. Different enough to sound spirit-like but not quite as noisy as Loque. (Poor Arcturis and Skoll don't even sound different. )

Re: Beta/PTR Request - Re: Core Shamans
It gives me a migraine and annoys my party members. And the fire noise is subversive, I don't realize how much it makes my head hurt until I put the thing away and it's all '....aaahhhh blessed silence....'

Beta/PTR Request - Re: Core Shamans
Okay, since core hounds are obviously going to be a staple item in people's stables come Cata... I'd like to ask a favor of those in a tester position. The reason I've never used one is not that they weren't useful (well, not -so- much but not awful) nor that they weren't cool (I was -so- excited wh...

Re: Silithid Swarmer = Silithid Worker Model?
The green/teal scorpid is now a common mob in 10kN.
Added in the last pass with the parrot and serpent mobs. Y'all can stop panicking now.

Re: Jackpot! Tameable Pets Confirmed
Also, since I didn't see a response to an earlier poster, the purple Naxx spiders ARE tamable at 81. Just difficult to get to.

Re: Not-Quite-New-But-Definitely-Different Wind Serpents
Hot dang. It's nice to see the Dreadfang skin pulled out of WC and made more available. Besides, the Dreads were hard to tame, thanks to that fear they do. Woot!

Re: A hah! Figured it out! Oil Stained Wolf Tame!
Okay, so I see he keeps the oil coat if you dismiss, resummon, stable, whatever.
I suppose the important thing is, does he keep it if he -dies-? Anyone willing to risk their void wolf to find out if the "buff" sticks after death?

Re: So torn :(
I'd say don't give up a sure thing (SB/rares) over the oily wolf. There's a good chance that his oilstaining may go the way of Arikara and Gez's poof animation and then you'll just be left with a gray worg and the knowledge that you got rid of something really awesome for it. Were it me, I'd ditch t...

Re: Tanking Pets: Which Do You Prefer?
I'm going to wade in on the side of warpstalkers. Yeah, bear swipe is good, but it uses a lot of focus, so you're really only likely to see it once, when your pet first engages its target... unless you've got Bite(claw?) off, I guess. Warpstalkers have a few advantages. Warp is cheap and has a short...

Re: "Void Wolf" Pics
Found out about this, had to go right out and get me onnah dem. Here's hoping it -lasts-... I think I'm the only one on my server with this thing so far. Too bad it's not on my main hunter, but I don't have any slots to spare on him until Cata. http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b246/Nachtwulf/Warcra...

Re: Speculation on Cataclysm Spirit Beasts
I think the next spirit beast will probably look stone-like. Like that black gem cat we all want except it'll probably look more like the tol'vir. That's my guess anyway... whether it's a cat or not, it'll have that look to it.

They won't fix what they don't know about. They -did- fix the white zombear running glitch, as well as the devilsaur gimp-run and the stomping (now if they'd only kill the tympani on core hounds) so they WILL fix it. But only if people actually complain. Going 'oh, they won't bother' and not even tr...

Broken Buzzard Problem
As a lot of you probably know, in the current live game, all of the 'new' northrend style condors (as well as the brown stormcrow) suffer a broken flying animation. For those that don't... when the pet is following you, it follows in its 'I'm hovering at rest' pose instead of shifting into a flight ...

Re: [Beta Request] Purple Spider from Naxx
Sadly, the purple spiders in that cave are untamable. (I think the cave is in storm peaks though.) Thus why people are wanting to know about the Naxx ones, since they, unlike the cave spiders, are flagged as tamable (although 81) in live.
Re: Deepholm
I'm not so sure about that. In the snake's case, yes, it's just a recolor. But the owl is visibly hacked out of stone, complete with flat planes and specular hilights, while the lava spider is likewise obviously made out of rock with lava lying underneath. The bone spider also deviates away from reg...
Re: Deepholm
I should point out the following tamable 'inanimate' beasts: Green gem owl Pink gem snake (so far) Lava spiders Bone spiders These (with the exception of the snake, which is new but has always been tamable) have always had a tamable version, while being obviously 'elemental' in nature. I hope you're...
